4. Finally, rotate the counterweight (and scale ring) counter-clockwise (towards the
pivot point) until the desired amount of weight is reached. If the scale rotates
360 degrees beyond the zero point, the new scale ring reading should be added
to 3.5.
*The included head shell and cartridge assembly requires a minimum of 3
grams and no more than 5 grams for optimum performance.
Setting the Anti-Skate Adjustment
In most cases, the Anti-Skate should be set to its minimum setting. Anti-Skate
compensates for inward tracking forces that occur with certain cartridges when the
stylus nears the center of the record. If the turntable is experiencing excessive
skipping during back-cueing and scratching while nearing the center spindle, try
increasing the Anti-Skate in the increments indicated on the dial. Start by adding an
increment of 1, test its performance, then increase it more, and so on.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the felt slipmat is always placed on top of the platter while using the
turntable. Failure to use the slipmat may cause damage to your media as well as
damage to the turntable.
Remove the plastic cartridge cover (needle cover) before operating the turntable.
CONVERTING YOUR 78RPM VINYL
To convert your 78RPM records, you will need to install and use the Audacity
application. This application can be found on the CD included in the box. Please
install Audacity and follow the instructions below to record your 78RPMs. For
Audacity troubleshooting, refer to the Audacity Software Guide included on the CD.
1. Connect your turntable to your computer’s USB port.
2. Open Audacity.
3. In Audacity, go to EDIT -> PREFERENCES and set the Recording Device to ‘USB Audio Codec’ – this
is your USB turntable (select 2 channels to record in stereo).
4. Select your computer’s soundcard as the Playback Device. Note that the device name will vary from
computer to computer but should never be set to ‘Microsoft Sound Mapper’.
5. Lastly, check ‘Software Playthrough’ so you can hear the music through your audio device while
recording.
6. You are now ready to record. Press the RECORD button in Audacity to begin recording.
7. Play your 78RPM at 33 or 45RPM.
8. Once you have recorded the desired material, press STOP in Audacity.
9. Click on EDIT menu, then click on SELECT, then click on ALL (shortcut: “CTRL-A”).
10. Click on the EFFECT menu, click on CHANGE SPEED.
11. When the CHANGE SPEED box opens, you will see Standard Vinyl RPM selections. The “from”
should be set to 33 or 45 RPM (depending on the speed you selected on your turntable), and the “to”
should be set to 78 RPM.
12. Click on PREVIEW to hear your recording converted to the correct speed of 78 RPM. Click on OK to
finalize the conversion to 78 RPM.
13. Once you are finished, you can save your file by going to FILE -> EXPORT AS WAV. This will save
the recording as a .WAV audio file.
14. Pick a destination on your computer, a name for your recording, and click SAVE.
15. The recording can now be found in the location where you saved it in the previous step.
