Turntable needle calibration
In this tutorial we see how to calibrate the arm of a vinyl turntable based on the technical specifications given by the manufacturer.
I also give my point of view if you have to play more aggressively, scratch or beat juggling and eliminate the needle jumping.
In the video I use a Technics 1200 MK2 and a Shure M44-7 but it works for any turntable of another brand (Reloop, Vestax, Pioneer, etc) and any capsule and needle.
