Cartridge alignment channel balance measurements?

Azimuth alignment is what I meant to say. I have been adjusting the azimuth adjustment on my headshell seeing the impact on channel balance using the various test tracks on the Hi-FiNews Analogue Test LP. Sorry for my confusion.

Stringreen, thank you for the tip on the search, I found what I was looking for in this thread:

Dougdeacon, how do you measure crosstalk?

James1969, as Shure once had a record and meter that allowed you to adjust the channel outputs by changing Azimuth, so Denon once had a meter that allowed you to minimize crosstalk. I think I remember that you could also get a Denon product that reduced crosstalk. I have had and sold all of these and rely on my ears.

I have been playing with this PureVinyl software in combination with using the HiFi-News test record. There is a real time Input Balance measurement that gives you a +/- 0.00 measurement. So this would be a differential offset of channel balance.

I would guess that to measure crosstalk, one would have to find a test track for left and a test track for right channels to see the bleed over onto the opposite channel? The idea is to have minimal bleed over into the disabled channel of the test track?

 
Start with the Cardas Frequency Sweep test record for $24 from Acoustics Sounds (or whomever), along with a Voltmeter, then ...
