Is the stylus included also good for use with 78rpm records?

I bought the turntable on the recommendation of a friend who is a professional dj... he told me that for casual listening, the included stylus was fine. If you are still interested in upgrading, I can ask him if you like.

No, the N44-7 is a replacement stylus for use with a Shure M44-7 cartridge, that uses a standard 1/2" mount. Your turntable uses a "P" mount system.

Sorry that I cannot help. This was a gift for my GRANDAUGHTER. She loves it but hasn't used it for recording old LPs.

While using headphone the speaker is SILENT, what a lot of people hear is the "physical" sound (vibrations) of the stylus picking up from the record, and since everything is plastic its a little louder than regular turntable

Yes, absolutely. Just plug into the phono input of your receiver and you'll be listening to the sweet warm feeling of vinyl. By the way, this turntable has some great features for the money. I upgraded the platform to an acrylic platform, replaced the mat with a cork mat, and swapped the stylus for an Audio Technica AT440MLA Dual-Moving Magnet Phono Cartridge and it sounds amazing.

Try to remove and reseat your pick up stylus. The vocal content of a record is likely in mono, while the music is stereo. If the stylus isn't seated correctly it might not respond properly to the vocal content. Of course, I assume you properly removed the stylus guard which the unit ships with installed. I can't imagine you would get any pickup period if you left it in place. I was very disappointed in the unit I bought. The audio quality is such that you won't get any "thumping" bass from the unit. It only has two watts per channel and sounds like a 50's vintage table radio

Thank you for this information. My husband has several 78s and I have been looking for a way to convert them. Which turntable do you suggest?

Yes, technically answering your question. The pads are not touch sensitive to begin with. But you can resample on multiple pads with varying volumes or effects and line them up consecutively if you want the sample to be progressive for whatever reason.

Well, basically analog output is what you have with vinyl playing and all those others platforms that you've mentioned are digital. So, analog have a much lower signal output coming from the stylus and VP130 PRE-amplifies it to a acceptable level. If you really want a brutal loud sound kicking in your lungs, you will need a good class "A" tube AMPLIFIER after the VP130 pre-amplifies it. Got it?

Not sure, on all LP's? Could be Cartridge alignment as the further into the record the more distortion with misalignment or a bent stylus. Or the cartridge could be picking up noise from the motor, but I would think that would have been a problem from day one. Probably not much help, but if you changed the cart. recently this could be it.

I don't have any 78 records so haven't tried them. Looking at the manual I don't see any reference to needing a different stylus for 78 records. However, there is a reference to an optional stylus for "SP" records. I don't know what SP records are, but it is listed as an "Optional" stylus. It comes with an STL-103 stylus with STL-102 as optional. Hope this helps.

Yes it's good for recording old vinyl albums to MP3s but if you're going to DJ I would go with the Stanton straight 150 you have more to Torque the needle won't jump

No. This turntable does not have a 78 rpm setting. There are similar models, such as the Audio-Technica ATLP120USB that plays 78's and has USB output to connect to your computer. Software and a built-in preamp are included. You should use a cartridge that allows changing the stylus with one intended for the wider groove of a 78, usually a 2.5 or 3 mil spherical diamond tip. This will insure reduced surface noise and distortion.

yes the stylus arm has auto return. I still do not recomend this unit as the stylus/cartridge is of inferior quality. The sound reproduced when playing records is very trebbly and does not do your music justice. If your recording feature actually works (mine failed on 4 different units) you would be better off plugging in another quality record player into the auxilliary to record a better sound.Good luck with this unit if you do buy one, but after my experiences with this particular product, I will never purchase this brand again.

Does play 45s just find, the jewel at the end of stylus needs to be bigger to work well with 78s.

I don't own this turntable, but I understand that the software included with the Numark TTUSB allows you to record 78s at 45 or 33, and then correct the speed through the software. The only remaining issue would be using a wider stylus for 78s so you don't get so much surface noise.
