Cassette DJ #6, Exploring a New Cassette DJ Device with Full-Size Turntable
#cassette #DJ #turntable
In this video, we delve into a new cassette DJ device currently in development. Responding to requests for a turntable diameter matching that of a record player (30 cm), I have created a full-size turntable section. The turntable is powered by a BLDC motor, but we are facing challenges such as significant roller noise and slow startup due to the lack of speed control.

    This sampler is the truth - it is a great little item. It is what it is, and has its own type of Lo-Fi sound and then of course there is the more high Fidelity option. works just as well using a computer as it does hardware; a blast hooking up to that and sampling away! Looking forward to more great creations from this world of music making tools. Good work Jiro, loving mine - beautiful hip hop on its way :)

      ​@@SnapBeat.official I do think you're on the right track, but I think I know what your "recovery of rotation" problem is about. It's not about the strength of the motor, or at least not entirely about that. If you're interested: You're driving the reels with the motor, right? That would have been my first thought too, but don't do that. If you want it to work like a record player, you have to drive the *platter* with the motor. You'll have to find just the right balance of grippage and slippage between the motor and the platter (so that your hand can take control without affecting the motor), but I don't think there's any other way to make it work properly. The motor has to keep constant speed while you're scratching (that's what a record player does if you have a slipmat, which every vinyl DJ has). You can't be fighting or stopping the motor, because that's how you get slow recovery and also how you ruin the motor in the long run. So the motor can't be what's driving the reels directly. The platter has to be in complete control of the reels at all times, and the motor has to have enough grippage to spin the platter when you let go (like a record player), but enough slippage to keep spinning freely when you take control (like a slip mat on a record player). I can picture a couple different ways that could work. Both involve felt between the motor and the platter. A third way involves moderate-torque ball bearings, if that's a thing you can get your hands on, but felt seems simpler (just probably not as durable). Rolling against an outer edge underneath the platter (with light pressure applied by some kind of spring, like a piece of flexible metal), or perhaps between two concentric cylinders in the middle (with moderate tightness; grippage/slippage balance is key), with the inner cylinder being attached to the platter and the clutch mechanism and the outer cylinder driven by the motor via rubber band or gears. You might also want a good grippy surface on top of the platter so your fingers always have more grip than the felt. I hope any of this made sense. If not, I could try drawing it, but I'm not good at drawing.

    Ah yes, moving the head. I've seen this idea applied in different builds, but those have been with the tape attached to a hard surface...or scratching the magnetic strip on old credit cards. There are pros and cons to this approach. On the one hand, you're not putting much stress on the tape, but on the other hand, you have to choose between pausing the tape or having it move independently of your scratching, which is not ideal if you're aiming to replicate the vinyl DJ experience. I think to really get full DJ control, you'd have to control both reels but have it move independently when you let it go. Tricky. To do that, you'd definitely need some kind of manual control between the motor and the tape reels, which itself is affected by the motor.
