Best protractor for the Linn Basik LV-X

[MJ.]

I have no experience of this arm whatsoever, so for those who have, which protractor do you use or recommend for set up ?

Thanks in advance :^

I have an avid one from analogue seduction, it's mirrored perspex

Thanks tackleberry,

I guess I didn't make myself very clear. I meant for cart alignment on the arm do you use Baerwald, Lofgren or whatever ?

Sorry

This template generator probably is one of the most flexible. Three strategies, settable inner and outer range, etc.

It also allows you to adjust for inaccurate printer geometry of X and Y axes.

Yeah, was just gonna send the same link.

Regardless of the strategy you will need a decent temp gen.

The strategy will largely depend on the type of music you play. Stevenson has the lowest distortion at the end of the record, so it will do well for (orchestral) classical where you have tutti at the end of the piece. It also has the shortest overhang.

Loefgren A (= Baerwald) probably has the lowest average distortion over the whole side.

Thanks Guys.

I generally use Baerwald as it seems the easiest "safe" option. I already have a reasonable template for that, so I'll stick with the old faithful for now I think, unless there are any good reasons I shouldn't.
