    Got super comfy and zen with the chill background music. 10/10 Great audio and video! The only thing is that your cam seems to not quite get the focus at around 6 minutes. (Edit: you acknowledge the blur in the video)
    Ps. What do you use for your audio/mic?

      Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video. My current video setup is a Canon T5i and a Rode microphone. Generally does the trick!

      TRSCP Thanks! I used to have a T3i! I’ll take a look at Rode Mics as I am going to get back into music recording so I’ll need a decent XLR mic :-)

    It would have been nice to see a record playing at the end just to see that it works. You do not need to let us hear it, just play it for yourself and we'll buy it! I want to see that ground working as well.

    • @TRSCP
      @TRSCP  Год назад +2

      Yeah, that's a fair point. Couldn't play it in a video because of copyright stuff and all that. I can assure you they work flawlessly now though, if that's any consolation! Thanks for watching!

    The 4 cables are leading to the headshell
    These aren’t 2 lines and 2 grounds they are - and +
    Doing this ground mod usually you add noise to the sound .

      Guess I got lucky, no noise has been introduced!

      TRSCP check at 4:27. I think he is right about grounding.Most people say there will be a hum,loud or not that loud...

    Internal Grounding does work for the 1200, and the 1210 from my experience. You have to make sure you do your research/homework and know what you want done to the table before doing anything that's over kill. I trusted my mechanic/repairman and he has not disappointed me. When setting up for Phono, Serato or Phase, I do not experience any kind of hum/buzz or any type of negative feedback. It is still your decision to convert to internal Grounding at the end of the day and if you have a veteran repairman that you know and is honest and trustworthy, internal Grounding will be the correct route you won't look back! Hope this helps!

      That makes sense! I did check into this a little bit before doing it, and I can say I have not had any issues with buzzing since! I've thought about doing some lights or like Dicers but knew that was above my skill level. Thanks for watching, and your input!

      @LaurenceCree that can make it tricky! Maybe if you had like a soldering iron rest you could try using that to help? I don't knoe great solutions for steadying a soldering iron. Tweezers, sure, but they aren't hot.
      Best of luck!

    Hey there. I have a pyle turntable pvttbt6. I was troubleshooting (turns out the damn belt was off) and I, being a novice, pressed down on the somewhat floating black mech plate, thinking maybe it wouldn't spin because of a misding screw. Meanwhile I noticed an odd sound, more than a hum, more like a... Hmmm. Crunchy fast thump? I dunno, lets call it a bad buzz. I had pressed down a few times at different points, then, after a while, a small puff of smoke came out from under the float plate and the lights all turned off and now nothing turns on! Heeeelp!

    Hy . I have a music hall turntable and it has a background noise. All the connections are ok. From what i have seen and checked the noise comes from the RCA mother plugs in the pick-up . I grounded in every possible way. When i turn the amp volume the noise is prezent

    This is NOT the proper place to ground the table.
    He has now grounded the table to the right channel negative signal and he may be introducing addition noise into that channel also running the risk of getting a ground loop than cannot be removed by grounding the table properly .
    Chances are, the ground was repaired previously because the owner before him tried this same mod and realized it screwed up the table...lol

      I guess since I've done this I've had zero issues with any sort of feedback or improper sounds. I forget the exact video but I saw this done by someone that actively did repairs/maintenance on these. Maybe I got lucky? Haha. Where would you ground it internally?

      Yes, 'I've seen the other videos also and they are mistaken also--yours just popped up today for some reason so I watched it.
      The Technics Turntable SHOULD NOT be grounded internally so there is no recommended spot to ground it except to your phono pre.
      There are some turntable manufactures that ground internally--the Thorens TD160 was one--but I also believe they have Technical Service Bulletin regarding external grounding when hum is present or at least many owners go that route.
      Have you read the Technics Service white paper written by Richard Talmage regarding internal grounding?
      May wanna give it a quick read, and I bet you pull the cover off and return the external ground--and I can tell you'll do a better job than the last guy:)

    bar I can hear not very loud, do you
    knkw why?, well a fact is, that the ground is not connected to anything, should I? and how?

      Hello!
      I believe you have to pass through an amplifier first, and that is why you're not getting loud sounds. Either use a mixer or like a stereo. Hope that helps!

    Hi. I have a turntable and the audio connectors are damaged, would it be ok to just splice the cables and add new RCA connectors on them? Thanks.
