About Wondertone Records
Where We Started

Wondertone Records began in 2019, when I started making lathe-cut records using a cobbled-together Rek-O-Kut lathe. Over time, I accumulated more equipment and expanded into digitizing analog media. The lathe cuts served their purpose, and a few years ago, I began restoring a Neumann VMS70.

Today, while that restoration is still in progress, I continue to digitize and clean analog formats to safeguard their content for years to come.

Today

In my “lab,” I’ve curated a selection of machines that allow me to work with a wide range of audio formats. From vinyl to acetate, open reel tape to cassettes, I can digitize most analog media. My turntable and specialized EQ system can handle everything from old Edison vertical cuts to more modern LP formats.

If you have open reel-to-reel tape in 1/4″ mono or stereo, 1/2″ stereo, or even 1″ 8-track, I can handle that too. All audio is digitized at archival quality, with detailed documentation maintained throughout the entire process.

My mission is to help preserve audio for generations to come, whether it’s family recordings, speeches, or music.
