You _do_ know that there are modern cylinder transcription machines
out there
designed to do clean transcriptions at constant speed with much lower
flutter
and distortion than an Edison machine, right?

Yes, but he doesn't own one, and for a hobby project, it's not worth
asking him to buy or build one. There is at least one good copy of the
cylinder he's recorded available on the web, but it's not *his*
cylinder. ;-)

In other words, we are playing, and, with any luck, learning.

Good luck in finding one of those tuits.
Seems the round ones are quite scarce. :-)
