Ghassaei used a state-of-the-art Objet Connex 500 printer to generate the disc. The whole process is possible because printing resolution has finally become high enough to create the audio-laden grooves for the needle to track and amplify. For her printed records, Ghassaei sets the machine to its finest setting, 600 dpi, with 16 micron steps, about the highest quality available on the market. But it’s still far lower resolution than on a vinyl LP, by a factor of 10 or so; hence the muddled sound that results in part from the needle responding to the layering of the printed plastic.

still sorta dot matrix level, but made to order 1 offs would a huge boost to record lovers.

That's the spirit. It's a work in progress for sure, but in ten years I'll be printing a 1985 model Kelly le Brock.

Maybe it will be great, but right now - dogshit

There was an interesting article about copyright etc once 3D printing technology evolves, comparing it to the music piracy debate.
New Lego toy comes out, somebody buys it, scans each piece, then torrents a 3D printing file of the new set. People stop buying lego so much.

Something along those lines.

Wish I could 3D print the plastic drain hose on my dishwasher, haven't ordered the spare yet.....
