A demonstration of recording on a tinfoil phonograph, as invented by Edison in 1877. The phonograph seen here is an exact replica of an all-brass exhibition machine as made by Bergmann in late 1878. This replica was built by the late Bill Ptacek. It's a massive phonograph, weighing 125 pounds.

From http://www.josepino.com - This is my home-made gramophone using just a plastic cup, a pin and some Lego Mindstorms parts. The pin picks the sound from the vinyl disk and the plastic cup amplifies the sound. A paper cup works fine, a foam cup also works but I didn't like the results.
The plastic cup amplifies the high-frequency tones but not ...

A la vez que los discos como soporte del sonido grabado existía el cilindro.
El disco permitía una tirada indefinida de copias.
En el caso del cilindro solo se podía hacer una sola copia de la toma de sonido.
Con lo cual para hacer duplicados había que grabar con varias maquinas a la vez en la misma toma.
In the collection of our physics cabinet, I found, in some old boxes and cases, a very nice and working phonograph dating back to 1897. It is a Phonographe Systèm Lioret. We also have 35 music rolles that have been recorded around the same period.
Thisi Ist the second version of my lego homemade phonograph
Transmission of sound electronically through the telephone came (oddly) before acoustical recording of sound via the phonograph. Electrical transcription of sound and playback on phonograph records came much later, in the 1920s.

Stuff I was going to delete off my laptop to make more space (its a crap laptop). I decided to edit it together with the soundtrack of us playing Wild thing at the overtoom very recently. The amsterdam footage is from about 2007 I think. Might be interesting if your in the band! The quality is not brilliant either..

On 5th October 1888 (yes, you read that year right), Sir Arthur Sullivan was present at a "phonograph party". At this event, he made a recording of his own voice to send to Thomas Edison (who had the idea that the phonograph may be used in a way similar to the letter). His comments are made having heard various recordings played to him at the event...
Here is an 1928 Edison C-2 phonograph, a very deluxe and expensive machine at its time ($495.00 not including tubes). It's one of the earliest electric phonographs, most at the time were still mechanical spring driven devices. The electronics were primitive compared to what was available just a few years later, notice the 60 cycle "hum". The con...
