I think with a wax cylinder you may want to reconsider how much warmth you subject it to.
Free plug-ins for Windows, MacOS and Linux. Xhip Synthesizer v8.0 and Xhip Effects Bundle v6.7.

Work less; get more done.

Is that the upcoming Wax and Shellac by some old man collection?

I have, somewhere in this house, 7 24hr wax discs used for recording a radio station's daily shows. Good old CKOX 1340 in Woodstock ON.
