What exactly is half-speed mastering? It’s a vinyl cutting process whereby the disc-cutting lathe for an LP is run at half the speed – so for an album that would be 16 and two thirds, which is half of 33 and a third – and the master source is run at half the speed as well.
The Master LP must have been a 78..???
Use a different set of strobe lines, OP your using the wrong set. There is a set for every speed your TT supports.. above or below the original strobe line you were using..., your actually adjusting to 60hz at a given speed, 16,33,45,78.. Just move the strobe a bit both ways, lesser and lesser. It may take 1/2 an hour, BUT you’re not recording that is what all that is about.. Your listening. WOW is really kind of a thing of the past... Rumble on the other hand.. Is alive and well..
There is a reason for a strobe. Not for listening though. BUT we’re all thought that’s what it’s for...NOPE recording, making your own new reel to reel or even cassettes.. LOL A thrust at save the LPs from ware an tear and to be able do your OWN mix....
