Dutch collector of 7" mostly 80's
Methodology for Track Timing
For those interested in the technical accuracy of my track durations, here is my measurement process:
- Preparation: Deep cleaning of the vinyl and calibration of the tracking force up to 0.01 grams accurate.
- Playback: The 7” is centered, the stylus cleaned, and playback begins. Rotation speed is monitored via laser up to 0.1 RPM.
- Analysis: The digital recording is analyzed at 86 steps per second to detect the exact start and end points of the track.
- Precision: This method delivers a time duration with a margin of error under 1/4th of a second.
- Data Entry: The final duration is rounded to the nearest second for submission to Discogs.
My recording equipment
- Record cleaner: Half automatic Nessie vinyl cleaner;
- Record player: Rega P8 with Ania Pro MC;
- NAD PP4 A/D convertor;
- Headphones: Meze 99 Classics
- Recording software: Audacity.
