The cartridge must have a stylus for 78rpm records. If the turntable does not have a 78 speed play it back at 45rpm. Record it and using the software you have or get one such as Audio Cleaning Lab, just select the option to convert from 45 to 78. You can then carry out any audio modifications to clean it up, then save it as an MP3. Never use a 45/33 stylus to play a 78 and never use a 78 to play a 45/33 record.
You need to know the make/model number of the cartridge. It might be on it it! With that you can search Google for it. Lots of sellers on E-Bay do them, got one from there a few months back, works great.You need to know the make/model number of the cartridge. It might be on it it!
