Record Player

About
Record Player is Guillermo Rauch's physical simulation of how a turntable makes sound. A matte black deck sits under soft studio light, and the music, Rhapsody in Blue (1924) from the Library of Congress, is cut into the groove and then read back by a simulated stylus. A live readout tracks speed, groove radius, tracking error and stylus height as it plays, and the controls let you push the stylus into mistracking. The source is open on GitHub, split into cutting, pressing and playback, and it renders in plain WebGL2.
