Records have become mainstream again thanks to cyclicality and nostalgia, and now with Phonocut's new DIY Record Making Kit, users can co-create their own product. The kit uses a device thats similar in size to a traditional turntable to record high-quality audio on a vinyl. To use Phonocut's kit, simply place a blank Phonocut vinyl onto the turntable and connect your preferred audio source using the 1/8″ stereo mini-jack. Next, press 'START' and begin recording. To end the recording, simply press 'START' again.
This kit is perfect for aspiring artists who are looking for unique mediums to record their music. Consumers can pre-order this retro-themed record-making kit on Kickstarter for €1,499 and can expect it to be delivered in December of 2020.
