New ultrasonic vinyl cleaner in the works: Humminguru

I wish I'd thought to do a before/after of these old ABBA records I'd thought were beat to hell. Did 5 minute soak vacuum cleans and they were...fine, but crackly, with a lot of surface noise and occasional pops. I did a 10 minute/10 minute run through the Humminguru and Voulez Vous sounds almost new.

This thing is going to make crate digging a lot more worry-free.

Yeah I’ve noticed that with older records too. Doing the 5 minute clean then the 15 minute auto really does bring them up a treat! I love 70s/80s presses as it is and this is just going to make me buy more!

Have you tried listening to one side of a Spin Clean, or whatever system you used prior to the US cleaner, record and then washing it with the new rig and relistening? Very telling.

No I haven’t but I’ve kinda started off with albums that would be considered regulars on the table so it’s pretty telling anyways. I’m happy!

Is your guys’ water reservoirs at the end of cleaning all day pretty dirty?

Surprisingly no! A little dirty but not bad at all. I did wipe it with a paper towel and it showed some dirt but unlike the spin clean I didn’t see it in the bottom of the tank built up.

I’m putting it down mostly to only cleaning stuff that’s been through the spin clean and not so much new new stuff. Maybe after a batch of 20 or so records that hadn’t been cleaned it could be different.
 
Shipping notice ! [EDIT] Not a shipping notice :mad:

Dear Backers,

We totally understand how eager you are to receive the HumminGuru! Our shipping crew has been arranging the shipment with our best effort. Unfortunately, due to the shipping peak season, the courier begins to enforce strict limits on how many packages companies can send out each day. It limits our daily output for different continents that divided into three as follows:

Region 1: North and South America
Region 2: Europe (Including UK)
Region 3: Asia & Oceania

The courier allows us to ship out only 20 packages per day for Region 1 and 2. For Region 3, the courier imposed the limits to 40 packages per day. Therefore, our shipping plan needs to get adjusted. Our crew will continue to ship out in order of priority according to the backer’s number, but we will arrange it based on the region you are in. That being said, we will arrange in order of priority for backers who live in North and South America (Region 1). For example, the backer #334, #450, #500 live in the US and Canada in which they belong to Region 1. Then our crew will ship order#334 first and then #450 and #500.

On the other hand, there are backers questioning about the shipment sequence, as being perceived some backers with a later backer number receiving the package earlier than the others. Again, we would like to clarify that those are the backers who had pledged for the pack of two and three rewards. However, we did not prioritize their shipment because of their reward types. It’s because we received a request from our shipping crew to facilitate the workflow and shipment efficiency when it came to the first backer who had pledged for the pack of two and three rewards. Since it was a very small number of backers with the pack of 2 and 3 rewards, our team approved to follow their suggestion and have them all shipped out together.

At last, all logistic companies are facing a flood of packages during the peak season. The transit time will take a bit longer than usual. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and patience! HumminGuru(s) are on the way.

Love & peace,

HumminGuru Team.​
