Things that ‘track’ like the Lorricraft are very good, but they take way too long for me to take them seriously. I could clean maybe five records in the time that thing takes to do one...
I know what you mean, I have a Loricraft and it’s a great machine, albeit a bit long winded. I use L’Art du Son; I’ve not tried anything else TBH. Like Tony, I’d not be without an RCM, it certainly takes a lot problems away from vinyl replay IMHO.
There must be more to your recipe for cleaning than that? My stylus picks up fibres and fluff and a little gets picked up by the Hunt brush, even after cleaning and storing records in Nagaoka sleeves.
Yes, but that’s because there is dust and fluff in the air at all times; you can see it when the Sun is shining brightly through the window. You only need a soft brush to remove it. Once the record is properly cleaned and stored, the static is gone and there will be no attraction to the disc.
WRT the comment about cleaning records becoming a ball ache, I’d personally not bother if it got to be that much of a PITA.
