Field notes
The tool builds the record path around the start and end G-code from a user's sliced Bambu Studio file, rather than requiring a special printer profile. Its interface separates playable material from calibration material: a continuous Tetris spiral provides a first test, while tone blocks and closed rings support turntable tuning and groove checks. The page specifies a 250 mm disc, 45 rpm as a compromise speed, and soft PLA that should be played only with a cheap cartridge.
