This is my recollection of Ron's story: He had been fooling with the lathe and figured out how to stop the screw action that pushes the cutting head from the outside to the inside of the platter. Then cutting a locked groove is a matter of tuning the source matterial to exactly 133 1/3 bpm, droppi

I hope at some point the Free Press or D.News does a feature on Ron. He touched so many lives, including mine. I paid Ron to cut a record, but getting your record cut was only part of the deal. You got techno anecdotes -- in my case, including Ron's impression of Jeff Mills sputtering in reactio

No, he was pretty clearly talking about music at that point. Ron didn't have an oscilloscope in his cutting room when I was there. He uses his ears, and as far as I know he checks for phase problems by looking at the grooves under a microscope. As for equipment, all I saw was some SAE graphic eq
