fl0wn (fl0wn@sealion.club)'s status on Friday, 16-Feb-2018 00:14:54 UTC fl0wn @harmlessgryphon lol, that's an old classic. I have it on vinyl. I may even have two copies @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink harmlessgryphon likes this. -

fl0wn (fl0wn@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:09:10 UTC fl0wn @harmlessgryphon I have a pair of Technics 1200-MKII's :D @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink -
harmlessgryphon (harmlessgryphon@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:15:12 UTC harmlessgryphon @fl0wn NIce! I'm pretty sure that's the same one a friend uses to transcribe my 78s. Here's my player. https://sealion.club/attachment/1749791 @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink -
fl0wn (fl0wn@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:17:56 UTC fl0wn @harmlessgryphon oh wow, that's fucking sweet. The Techs are pretty much the standard for DJing. The version I have are all black instead of the more familiar gray of the older 1200's. They're built like a tank. @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink -
harmlessgryphon (harmlessgryphon@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:30:57 UTC harmlessgryphon @fl0wn I'm pretty sure that's the same one - there are a number of needle and cartridges out there for them, makes it easy to digitize almost any kind of disc. Here's a sample of his work, the "Strictly From Dixie" album https://www.dropbox.com/s/9crks2ofgd2gju7/sfd.7z?dl=0 https://sealion.club/attachment/1749817 @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink -
fl0wn (fl0wn@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:45:30 UTC fl0wn @harmlessgryphon very cool. If it's a 78 I doubt he's using a 1200. All of the ones I've used only do 45 and 33 1/3 @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink -
harmlessgryphon (harmlessgryphon@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:46:58 UTC harmlessgryphon @fl0wn @lnxw48a1 He does it at a lower speed then corrects for it. I can't remember what he uses, will ask when he returns from the job he's currently on. In conversation permalink fl0wn likes this. -
harmlessgryphon (harmlessgryphon@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:48:08 UTC harmlessgryphon @fl0wn @lnxw48a1 From what he's told me, the most important part is getting a needle that has the correct cut for 78s. Otherwise you're just sitting in the bottom of the groove not doing much. In conversation permalink fl0wn likes this. -
fl0wn (fl0wn@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:49:43 UTC fl0wn @harmlessgryphon yeah, it's dead simple to change cartridges on the 1200. @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink -
harmlessgryphon (harmlessgryphon@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 02:55:29 UTC harmlessgryphon @fl0wn Considering this is what's normally drug through the groove of a shellac 78, it's amazing he can get anything out of them at all. https://sealion.club/attachment/1749847 @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink -

harmlessgryphon (harmlessgryphon@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 03:02:23 UTC harmlessgryphon @fl0wn @lnxw48a1 Tracking weight is 5 ounces. Not vinyl friendly at all. In conversation permalink -
fl0wn (fl0wn@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 03:03:29 UTC fl0wn @harmlessgryphon damn, I adjust my tonearm so that it pretty much floats across the vinyl @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink harmlessgryphon likes this. -
harmlessgryphon (harmlessgryphon@sealion.club)'s status on Saturday, 17-Feb-2018 03:07:23 UTC harmlessgryphon @fl0wn Yep. 78s may look like records but they're as close to your stuff as a stone tablet is to a laser-etch stainless steel plate. @lnxw48a1 In conversation permalink fl0wn likes this.
