Audiomatic

The Copperpot Crank-action Audiomatic, called simply the audiomatic for short, is a device capable of recording and playing back sound.

Description
The audiomatic is a mechanical phonograph. It records and plays sound using a needle etching grooves onto wax cylinders. The audiomatic Hazel carries with her must be turned manually with a hand crank.

History
The audiomatic was invented by Hazel Copperpot in or before 826 PD. She created the device to play pre-recorded readings of Taryon Darrington's books while working at a factory in Hupperdook.

When Tary was recruiting for the Darrington Brigade in 826 PD, Hazel applied and demonstrated her device by playing a recording of her reading an excerpt of The Daring Trials and Tribulations of Sir Taryon Darrington.

Trivia

 * Hazel uses her audiomatic as one of her instrument to cast her Bard spells, inserting and playing different cylinders to produce different spells.
