Template:WikiProject banner shell Is there any chance of confusing this with the pitch control in an aircraft? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.137.39.195 (talk • contribs)

Re: 78rpm
To my knowledge, no turntable that played at 78rpm ever came with a pitch control, and no turntable with a pitch control ever played at 78rpm; the two technologies were ships passing in the night. Again, I wish non-tech people would NOT try to edit technical articles. Zephyrad 13:53, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- Technics SL-1200MK4 had both. Rootless 16:18, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, but this is a unique model (and it appears it was sold only in Japan?). Thanks for the mention. Zephyrad 21:09, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- I've seen Numark DJ turntables (TT200 and TT500) that can do 78 RPM. Also, Google search for "78 rpm dj turntable" gave me this as a the second link. Rootless 10:22, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- OK, added the speed in; I am convinced. ;-) Thanks for the info. Zephyrad 10:38, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- I don't care whether 78RPM is mentioned in this article, but you're welcome. Rootless 13:06, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
Why does a pitch control work "in reverse"?
I was looking why, traditionally, it appears a pitch control has to move up to make music go slower (rather counter-intuitive to me). Does anyone know why this is? It might be an interesting fact to add to the article.
- The forward direction of rotation of the record being clockwise. -Reticuli 2605:A000:1301:906F:604B:55D3:63AC:A1AD (talk) 15:11, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
