Before and after on cleaning a VHS audio/control head. This head reads the pulses which tell the servo system how fast it should drive the tape, as well as linear audio.

💿 Platine double tête 78+M

En principe, on utilise pas le même type de tête pour lire les 78 tours et les microsillons. Cette ancienne platine a les deux !

A time-warp to my room around late 1992, where I show how exhilarating it was to be a game developer. 😆

If you've ever used, or heard of, the legendary Deluxe Paint ("DPaint") Amiga (and MS-DOS) pixel editor, @PyDPainter is a very accurate, free recreation of it, with some added features.

I also adjusted alignment of this specific VCR, since it was struggling. It's not completely fixed up alignment-wise, but I just did what I could do quickly and it's already a fair bit better.

CRITICAL SUCCESS. The heads did get clogged somehow.

Huh... this looks like video head clogging, but I haven't really used this VCR in a while. I wonder what happened - time to pull it out of rack and diagnose (this is thankfully the sacrificial VCR, not the one I actually use to run the club)

@Screwtapello Nice! I clearly remember the first Soundtracker, with the distinctive Obarski sounds he used for his Amegas and Crystal Hammer tracks.

Not long after the first Soundtracker was released we released our SIDmon tracker, which was the first tracker to include generated synth sounds.

🚀 Oh, look, a #YouTube video explaining how a 1994 brick masquerading as a "smartphone" was actually a thing. 🤦‍♂️ Because nothing screams cutting-edge technology like reminiscing over a device that had less computing power than a modern toaster. 🍞🔋
