78 Vinyl Records

Question Can I record 78 vinyl records at another speed?
I want to record my old 78's as CD's. My very nice Pioneer turntable has no "78" speed. Can I record at 45 or 33 speed and then correct it using recording software (as I edit out the noise)? I know I need to use a different stylus for 78's, but otherwise can I do what I propose? I would prefer not having to buy an old "78" turntable! As stated, I know I need to use a 78 stylus!

Best Answer I tried to play an old 78rpm record once on a Garrard turntable with a modern 1-gram stylus and heard nothing. The walls of the 78's grooves were far too wide. You might have to see if you can borrow a 78rpm turntable from someplace, or perhaps there is a studio you could go to. You could probably import the audio in to a program such as Sound Forge and make a speed adjustment there.

Question I am a beginner DJ purchasing equipment, and have an important question about vinyl records?
I have a Direct Drive Technics sl-1200mk2 turntable, which takes vinyl records. Now, I can buy records from places such as Guitar Center for scratching, and those are blank records i believe. Now, my grandfather has some old 78 records with music on them; can I use those or will they not work cause they have music on it?

Best Answer no
