Je viens de récupérer ce trésor a priori en parfait état de marche, avec des disques et des aiguilles. Cependant, le poids de la tête de lecture freine et arrête le disque, je ne comprends pas comment régler ça. Est-ce que quelqu'un a déjà manipulé un gramophone comme celui-ci ?
I just inherited this wonder. I have an issue, though : the weight of the head slows and stops down the disk. Does someone know how to fix this ?

DIY portable gramophone repair job - fettling a 1947 machine back into working order.
My new video up now:

Hello everyone! I've been around fedi for a while on my own Mastodon server, but I've now decided to join beige.party at @jessica's recommendation - so here's my new #Introduction!

In a mid-30s cis man from Bristol, UK. I mostly toot about #genealogy, #esperanto, and #gramophone records. I also play a bunch of musical instruments and arrange classical and folk music for ukuleles and ocarinas, and occasionally play them in videos.

I've been pretty quiet on fedi for a while, but hoping to get more involved with the community again now!

I’d just like to give a boost to a small, Montréal museum:
The Musée des Ondes Emile Berliner. It is in the old RCA building, where Emile Berliner, the inventor of the Gramophone, had his factory in the 1910s through 1930s.
If you are interested in the history of music production, audio technology, radio technology, or industrial development, it is well worth a visit.

New experiment: delete all of the stock apps (File manager, gallery, video player, music player, etc.) from my #Android phone (a #Realme C55) and replace them with #FOSS alternatives from #Fdroid and #IzzyOnDroid :

- File manager -> File Explorer
- Photos and video player -> #AvesLibre
- Music player -> #Gramophone
- Google Contacts -> #Fossify Contacts

I've deleted #GooglePhotos too, since I'm going to use #Filen_io and #Megasync for that purpose.

Cheap but cursed circuit from 20th century era for small #gramophone / #phonograph using single pentode #valve / #tube and selenium rectifier - the whole chassis of the amplifier is connected to one side of mains - depending which way the plug is inserted, the chassis can sit at mains voltage! (and we had this in countries where the mains was 200-250V)

Equipment like this is supposed to be well insulated (including grub screws in control knobs)

The #Diggola - an early #DJ console made by Ron Diggins of #Lincolnshire , #England shortly after World War II. It played 78 rpm shellac #gramophone records using two spring wound #turntable motors, a #valve (tube) #amplifier and had its own built in light controller (switching lights directly at 230V mains voltage connected to round pin sockets) #audio #AV #SoundEngineering

Der Phonokoffer von Philips, im Volksmund auch Hutschachtel genannt, wurde von 1954 bis 1958 produziert. Der Korpus besteht aus Holz, bzw. Hartfaserplatte. Im Deckel ist der Lautsprecher eingebaut, der über einen Bananastecker mit dem Chassis verbunden ist. Der Ladenpreis lag bei knapp 200 DM.

@brassmusic Happy New Year from all of us at Hathersage Brass Band.....and here's the next instalment of The Wonderful World of Brass Instruments.
This is the "Corno da Tirarsi en Extremis" quite a large beast that I made up from a #FrenchHorn a #BassTrombone in G, 1.5 metres of 1/2" #CopperPipe and a #Gramophone horn! It's the first #horn in a sextet of strange beasts that will hopefully get an outing before the end of year - watch this space! #BrassBand

the #gramophone composers guide appears to be free and there's a lot of info

Just A Kid Really (short version)

Those songs about me
Are not like
The one in my head
A #gramophone scratch of
Skip & repeat
Fly Colton, fly
Colton fly
And that’s all I wanted
But I’m just a kid
So I stole a plane
Or two
Now
I can't come home
Coz they're hunting me
Armed to the teeth
But mom
I miss you
