3D-Printed Record Plays Like the Real Thing
AUSTIN — The nostalgic return to vinyl LP records is endearing, in a way, but no one expects the digital music recording industry to start producing the large discs in mass quantities again. The rise of 3D printing, however, offers the intriguing possibility of printing your own 33RPMs at home.
Researcher and Instructables DIY project site team member Amanda Ghassaei has created what may be the world’s first 3D-printed, playable LP records. Ghassaei wrote the code that transforms any audio file into a 3D file that can be created via the high-resolution Objet Connex 500 3D printer.
Instructable team member Karen Howard gave us a brief demo at SXSW 2013’s Creator Tent, which was filled with 3D printed projects and other incredibly cool DIY electronics projects and innovations.
