Working with 78’s


Hi. I’m a little new to this. I’m interested in how to transfer audio from 78 rpm records to digital. I’m talking about the thick non bendable records that are read by a thick stylus. I read this thread and it is beyond me:

How do I know what kind of thick stylus and tonearm to use? Is there any one combination of makes and models for turntable, tonearm and stylus that will work for all 78 records?

You get a cartridge specifically for 78s. Ortofon makes one for $20. It can be mounted in any modern arm.

now go to Channel D’s website and look at Pure Vinyl. You will need an Apple Computer.
