http://www.plastidisc.com - Creating a lathe cut vinyl record of the game Monty On The Run, then loading it in directly to a real Commodore 64 directly from the record player. The audio (which lasts 6' 29") was made from a .TAP file, and then cut to a 7" disc at 45 rpm. I apologise in advance for my boring voice.
8-bit data on vinyl is nothing new, going back to the early 1980s, and indeed one of my own 7" releases from 2018 has 'hidden' BBC Micro data on it. However, I wanted to see if my own record cutting setup could achieve the task. To load the cut record back in, a simple lead was soldered to the datasette circuit board, and then connected to the amplifier. Details are available online for this. I could have used a cheap car cassette adapter, perhaps, but I didn't want to hack a hole in the datasette lid for the adapter lead to exit through. Also, I could have recorded the record onto a cassette, and loaded that in through the datasette, but I hoped to prove there was no cheating going on by doing it this way.
If you want me to cut a C64 (or any similar microcomputer) program to a vinyl record, or indeed any other audio, please get in touch. Next up: Manic Miner into a ZX Spectrum from a lathe cut record...? Maybe. Stay tuned.
Повторяем попытку...
