Re: [microsound] making vinyl skip infinite

[chris mcnamara <mcnafong@xxxxxxxx>]

Another thing to consider is how very different the outcome will be 
from a locked groove. A skipping record will have, by virtue of how the 
skip is present, a popping, percussive sound at the point where the 
groove is interrupted. A locked groove is much smoother.

I've heard of people using a spot of glue at a point in the record - 
probably not something to do with a high end needle - on a Califone 
perhaps?

cheers
