Let's get down to the cool stuff: making locked grooves that sync with the rhythm of the track as it entered the locked groove. If you made a 133.332 BPM tune, you could make several versions on the vinyl that built up and ended with locked grooves that would be mixable! 33.3333 Rotations per Minute x 4 beats = 133.333 beats per minute. It would be the same no matter how in/out from the center the needle was (this distance only effects fidelity{amount of time etched over length of groove}) So who's done this?
