correct me if i’m wrong, but mixing 2 records to make them sound like one is dj-ing to me…

eewww.. could you imagine scratching with those babies?

I wonder what the pressure guage is for? Pitch control? hehe :slight_smile:

scamo

That’s what REAL DJs use right there.

I call Shenanigans.

Looks like a steampunk creation to me

It looks more like a recorder than a player.

They were used to provide the soundtrack to silent films.
