Hope I'm Not Tiring You With All My Qs...

...But I Have Another Problem, I Just Noticed That At 0 Pitch The Dots On My TTs That Should Actualy Stay Still Are Moving. They Aren't Moving Fast, They Are Moving Very Very Slowly Actualy, Are My TTs Defective Or Am I Being A Paranoid *****???

if your pitch is at 0, they shouldn't move.

the questions aren't annoying..

but.. Why Do You Type The First Letter Of Each Word In Capital Letters?

questions aren't annoying unless you keep asking the same shit and can't get it.. but knowledge is everything and one of the best ways to obtain knowledge is by asking questions! to answer your latest question, at 0 pitch, the center dots should appear to not be moving back and forth!

Thanx Man I Really Appreciate It. So What You're Saying Is 'Get Your TTs Checked'?

BTW I Own The Stanton STR-60, I Know At Least One Of You Guys Owns Them As Well So If He Would Like He Could Tell Me If His Are Doing The Same Thing.

how long have u had the tables and are they new or used? if they are knew you should be able to take them back to where u got them and have them re-calibrated... if used, im sure you can take them to any music repair shop and have them re-calibrated.. unless its not a problem, then don't worry about it ya know..

AFAIK, Stanton TT's don't have the center pitch click that Technics do. This means there is no quartz lock at 0% pitch. There may be a button for this, but that's a different matter. Anyway, the reason your pitch dots move is that the pitch slider is analog. It is impossible to have the slider calibrated so that at *exactly* 0% on the slider meter the pitch dots are stationary, but it is possible to have it very close to. You will find that there *is* a true 0% pitch, where the dots are stationary, but it might be a little way + or - of zero. You will also find that over time this point may 'float'.

So unless your quartz is locked, you will find your dots will still move, but that doesn't mean that your Stantons are defective; it's just a matter of precision.

DJTJ does it again, what will we do without him..

So I Shouldn't Worry About It? That's A Relief. Will It Have Any Effect On Mixing Precision?


Posted by hapamoto on Apr-30-2002 15:30:

djtj rocks!... shouldn't have any effect on your mixing unless your true 0 pitch is at like the +3 point.. if its very close then don't worry.. when im mixing and adjusting pitch, i don't even look at what point it is, just feel around, if the record is to fast, slow it down, if its too slow, speed it up..


Posted by Kevin on Apr-30-2002 19:32:

I use to have the same tables bro. they are not accurate with the pitch at all.The 0 pitch will always very slightly change in speed. Just got to deal with it 'til you get better tables.

Affirmative. I Guess I'll Have to Put Up With Them Till I Save Up Enough To Get The Real Shit (And I Ain't Talking About Technics). I Would Like To Thank You Guys For Your Replies, You Have Been Very Helpfull And I Hope I Can Do The Same Thing For You Someday. Cheerz.

This IZ The Shit. I've Tried Them At The Vestax Store And I Can Tell You I've Been Dreaming About Them Ever Since.

btw, now it won't affect your mixing, because when you mix, you're not trying to get the song to play at exactly 0%, you're trying to get the song to play in time with the other song. :P
