@nekoaudio adjusting azimuth with a test disc and software is certainly best way to adjust THAT specific test disc to the stylus.

The problem is that if we take 12 different pressings/brands of test discs then they all varying from each other. That variance is also between all of your albums on our collections.

The reason is that the cutting head in the lathe machine have of course also azimuth variance.

So the best way in my humble opinion is to put the azimuth as vertical as possible and that will then in average be the best "compromise". Because of the variance between all the different albums will give the best setup on average for all the discs in our collections.

So  adjusting azimuth with software/fuzometer/oscilloscope and one test disc is in my opinion a waste of time and resources.

Wow, if Brian is that good as Peter L then why not..

But the other comments is also valid. That you need to be able to do it yourself. But if videos and other types of ways of information is not preferred for you as getting taught by a person is a personal preference.

That I can say is that more or less each type of adjustment can be done in several ways. And keep it in mind that even if you get taught one way to do it there can be more optimal ways to adjust the same thing!

Another thing is that many final adjustments is by ear and it should be to your preference when it is you that is going to listen on your system. So it is highly beneficial that you can fine tune it yourself..

(For example you can try max and minimum of the recommended VTF (it alters by the way antiscate setting among other things..) just to hear what happens and in what way the sound reproduction alters. When you know what is changing then you can fine tune to your liking and with your albums that you listening to)

For example I have studied the two great giants in the industry Michael Fremer and Peter Ledermann in how they adjust different aspects of a TT. 
And I have found that hands down that Peter Ledermann uses the most optimal and pricise methods at how he goes about it.

But I have of course learned a lot from Mr Fremer like that OVERALL the Löfgren B has the least angel error over the whole radius over a record. (If not it is more desired to have little better angle nearer the lead out and sacrifice little bit at other radius further out on the record)

Good luck in your TT setup! 👍

@nekoaudio good to hear! Thanks for the feedback.
