3. USB Audio Output: Use the included USB Cable to connect
your turntable to your computer. Refer to the software
instruction guide before plugging in your turntable.
4. Power Button: This ring around the power button illuminates
red when the turntable is switched on.
5. Platter: This platter must be securely fastened to the
turntable prior to operation. The Motor Drive Belt can be found
on the drive ring underneath the platter. See SETUP
INSTRUCTIONS for detailed information on installing the Motor
Drive Belt.
6. Start/Stop Buttons: These buttons start and stop the
turntable motor. Both buttons have the same function. If they
seem to not be functioning, check to make sure that the Motor
Drive Belt is properly installed in the SETUP INSTRUCTIONS.
7. 1/8" Stereo Line Input: Connect Tape Players, Reel to Reel,
or any other audio source here. This signal is sent to the
computer through the USB. Make sure that your phono
cartridge is installed while using this input for maximum
sound quality. Also make sure that your RCA jacks are either
plugged into an input device or not in contact with metal.
Note: The 1/8" audio input is not routed to the turntable's RCA
output jacks, only to your computer via USB.
8. 33 and 45 RPM Buttons: These buttons control the RPM of
the turntable platter. A red LED indicates which RPM mode has
been selected.
NOTE: If the turntable is powered down while in the 45 RPM
setting, it will return to 33 RPM when it is powered up.
Note: You can record your 78RPM records by recording them
at 33 or 45rpm, then changing them to 78 in the Audacity
software.
9. Pitch LED: This LED illuminates green when the pitch slider is
set at 0%. When the pitch slider is moved away from zero, the
LED illuminates red.
10. Pitch Slider: This slide control allows the pitch to be increased
or decreased by 10%. In the center position the pitch is at 0%.
When moved away from the center and towards the tone arm
decreases the pitch (slows down the platter) and moving the
pitch slider away from the tone arm increase the pitch (speeds
up the platter.)
TONE ARM: Items 11 – 15 are all parts of the tonearm. Refer
to the TONEARM SETUP section for additional details on these
controls. Your model will be equipped with straight arm or S-
arm style depending upon model purchased.
