Yes, but there was a discernible difference in the sound!

Nice idea that scale model.
The speed compensation was all very well, but surely there's a question as to how well that unique little speaker array replicated the guitar sound, in terms of tone and directionality.

Anechoic chambers are always the best demo of how sound is focused in treated rooms. It makes listening so much easier (less fatiguing).

I like the other video in the link of the cigar-smoking guy editing cracks and pops out of tracks from a record recorded onto tape, then marking and splicing. I was unsure what the fragments were later in the clip. Were they the remains of the record that had delaminated?

Very interesting
