Speed Adjustment; Mobile App - Rega NEO MK2 Manual Del Usuario

SPEED ADJUSTMENT

Speed control adjustments are located
on the rear panel of the Neo.
Speed program switch – This
enables 'set speed' mode.
Program mode LED – This indicates the
two modes of operation: Default mode
(factory speed setting) and running
in the speed adjusted mode.
Speed adjustment – This adjusts the speed.
The step size of the speed control is 0.01 rpm.
IMPORTANT: If your drive belt is five or
more years old, it's highly recommend
that it is replaced as this can cause small
inconsistencies in speed which could prevent
optimum adjustment when setting the Neo.
ADJUSTING THE SPEED
Note: The speed is adjusted whilst running at
331/3 rpm. Any adjustments made at 331/3 rpm
will be automatically applied to 45 rpm.
1. Select 331/3 rpm.
2. Press the 'speed program' switch
once to put the unit into 'setup
mode' – the 'program mode' LED
will now be permanently on.

adjustment control. Turning clockwise
will increase the speed and turning
counter clockwise will decrease the
speed. The step size is 0.01 rpm.
4. When the speed has been set, press the
'speed program' switch once to put the unit
into 'run mode'. The 'program mode' LED
will now go out and flash approximately
every 10 seconds indicating the speed has
been changed from the factory setting.

MEASURING THE SPEED
REGA STROBE KIT (SOLD
SEPARATELY)
The best way to adjust the speed of your
turntable is to use the Rega Strobe kit. A
stroboscopic disc is an optical instrument
used to measure the speed of the
turntable by freezing the bars on the disc.
The bars are illuminated by an accurate
quartz locked LED pulsing at 100Hz.

MOBILE APP

Rega, along with a London mastering studio,
have used the iPhone RPM app (available on the
App Store) developed by Philip Broder, to check
and adjust the speed of a turntable using the
Neo, with positive results. We have verified the
basic accuracy of the RPM app using Rega's in-
house speed measuring equipment, but as this
is a third-party app we cannot guarantee the
readings because of uncertainties, which could
be caused by the age, condition, and operating
system of the phone the app is installed on.
If you are in any doubt, you should
check the calibration of the RPM
app using a suitable reference.
