<>I’m really just concerned about how the sound gets on to the record itself

The sound gets onto the record itself using a device called a record cutting lathe. this is a device that takes a blank rotating ‘master’ disc, and applies a cutter to the disc to cut out the spiral track, changing the position of the cut, depth and whatnot in response to the sound signal going into it.

This master disc is then used to press out copies which are what you end up with in your hand.
