  • This is a very indepth video on how to use a record player! Incase youre wondering, My record player is:
    - BAYTONE BT 37MC
    Beware: Dont buy Crosleys even though they are so aesthetic. They are poor quality. That is why I grabbed this one up instead, it has a better quality needle (plus has more features for the same price)

    0:40 I was raised in the vinyl and polyethylene (some 45s) era, and one thing you should never do is handle the record with your fingers. You take the record in both hands, with the palms touching the edges. Too many fingerprints dull the sound of the record and sometimes may cause "skips". Good demonstration though!

    I'm a record collector and I find this a spot-on instruction! Although the way you hold the record is improper. The record should be handled on the edge or on the label to prevent the record grooves on collecting dirt from your hands. :)

    Oooh, do not touch the playing surface with your fingers! Oil from the skin can attract dust, which causes that annoying crackle. It could also cause premature wear of the stylus/needle. Instead, handle the record by the outside edge and label.

    Don't put a quarter over your headshell. One thing that I do is take weight off of the tone arm. I don't know why I had luck with that, but it definitely works for me. I'm not sure if there's a counterweight adjustment spring in the back of your tonearm or not. Also, the other thing that may be going on is some of those needles on these type of players will put a 1.0 mil. If you can replace the needle for your record player with a 0.7 mil stylus, it will track much better as well. It may also be a sapphire stylus instead of a diamond. If you replace it, make sure you get the correct diamond replacement as well. It will last much longer. Your setup does sound good.

      @charliebrown1976 3 года назад +7

      @@mjcoolswagtv8839 If you are still interested in vinyl, I highly recommend just giving it a shot. It's not hard, and making a mistake or two doesn't mean you ruin the entire turntable or the record. I have records from the 1920s that look like they were buried for years and they still play. They are more resilient than many people think. If you have an old turntable, you might want to replace the cartridge and stylus (what most people know simply as the needle at the end of the arm). Otherwise, get yourself a decent new turntable, such as the Audio Technica AT-LP60, and a decent set of powered bookshelf speakers, such as the Edifier R1280Ts. This will give you an excellent vinyl starter set that you can really enjoy listening to for a very reasonable cost of $200. I know many people think that most of the vinyl community is harsh or hostile towards the turntables they sell in big-bix retailers, but the truth is they give a bad name to the hobby, and they are not worth whatever they cost. Value and cheapness are not the same thing. Getting a poor product for very little money is not value.
      TL;DR: If you still want to have fun with vinyl, go for it, and try the setup I mentioned above if you don't have any old equipment. It will sound great without breaking the bank.
      Edit: I should mention that I'm only 16, so you're not the only young whippersnappers in this game! ;)

    Hey there this is a very nice well planned out video tutorial. However I would say this is for the real novelist who is just getting into collecting and listening to records. I go way back several decades when it comes to vinyl records so for me using a record player is very familiar straightforward so I really wouldn't need a video tutorial like this one but it was nice to watch anyway and it is very informative for modern Millennials who have never even seen a record player before.
