So, what are you listening to?

Don't know anything about it but were the cylinder sizes/speeds standardized or could you only play cylinders specifically designed for this player?

Did you know that 78 RPM was only a suggestion for the first few years of phonographs? If a record was recorded at a different speed, it changes the key of the song to play back at 78. A remarkable website allows you to tweak the playback of old recordings to get the speed right, and to take out hiss & pops and to simulate room tone. It’s like colorization for music. This is the instructional video for the collection. #Edison #Cylinders #78RPM #MusicalHeritage https://vimeo.com/585399927

For people who value recordings from the earliest years of recording (cylinders and very, very early 78 RPM disks), this is the instructional video for a remarkable collection. #Edison #Cylinders #78RPM #MusicalHeritage https://vimeo.com/585399927
