Post A Vid of Your Turntable In Action
What the heck. I'll try again (with a better thread title this time).
I don't know how many folks have youtube accounts or other vid host options; but, if you do, why not share the addiction. Every now and then I like to look at someone else's rig (...don't go there, keep it clean...).
Anyone game?
Lyrics are the ramblings of man, sometimes inspired by The Creator, most often, not.
But music (melodies, harmonies, rhythms), that's God stuff.
Always was. Always will be.
One of the biggest lies ever told was that only certain kinds of people should listen to certain kinds of music.

Umm...nice idea, but there isn't a lot to see compared to just a photograph of a record being played is there? Oh, I suppose one could pan around and show the deck from different angles.

Hey Mark,Originally Posted by YNWaN
Just trying to have a little fun, here. It's the next best thing to being there.Take for instance this gentlemen and his setup: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJT-tzW1g7k. (purposefully not embedded) I thought the vid was cool. Youtube has no shortage of turntable clips. Why not AOS members?

Quite a bit of pop and crackle (well worn copy?) - perhaps he sould invest in an RCM. Sounds Impressive though. Nice Idea but you need good video/recording equipment especialy to get a decent idea of the sound.Hey Mark,
Just trying to have a little fun, here. It's the next best thing to being there.
This is a better effort with more 'modest' equipment and he gives details of how achieved.

Yeah, fair enoughHey Mark,
Just trying to have a little fun, here. It's the next best thing to being there.
I've got a YouTube account I think - might give it a go. I don't think the little camera I would use records sound though - which is perhaps just as well as the whole needle-drop issue is potentially still a problem.

I've just watched that vid that Biff linked to - look at the bit where he points the camera at the drive units; the auto-focus must lock on the cones because the focus starts to adjust rapidly, in time with the music.
