     This beautiful machine joins oeedotechnica's scratch turntable in the realm of well-engineered handmade devices for cassette tape DJs that I will never afford

     They announced this thing and preorders sold out immediately. It's 1500 euro plus shipping. The line is probably two years long now - it's just the one guy in russia that's making them

     @Aleums @BustaMarx I am glad this is something being made now. I am so uninterested in tech that has a screen for an interface.

     I'm guessing those are just the current commodity tape guts.

     Actually I take that back looking at the little screws on the tape head and that latch thing.

     @pkw @BustaMarx yeah if this is a bespoke transport mechanism, that's huge and I am frankly surprised that the price tag isn't higher because of it. He may also have just found a trove of NOS mechanisms, or he could be harvesting a common older one.

     @pave_the_earth he put up a preorder for 5 and they sold out immediately. so maybe in 3 years he'll have a shop making them and I can get in line

     @pave_the_earth yeah I was gonna ask if you recognized it. The pause paddle threw me off, but I guess it's just moving the pinch roller?

     @pave_the_earth the cost makes more sense with that in mind. It's actually not absurd for such a specialized and interesting handbuilt machine

     @pave_the_earth i assume you've seen the oeedotechnica scratch turntable thing? Does that one also use The One Mech?
