User reviews

Not idiot proof

In order to use this app properly one needs to know if they have a 50 or 60 hz motor. I downloaded and printed the proper speed checker. Preprinted speed disc are also available for 15-20 through mail order. When done properly this app works totally gets the job done.

I need a printer? Seriously?

I wasn’t counting on needing a printer to use this.

Incorrect on iPhone 13

Does not produce correct frequency, at least with an iPhone 13.

Great for Empire Turntable Owners

This app is great to ensure that my 1975 Empire 598 III Troubadour turntable is spinning at the proper speed. Since there is already a strobe disc built-in to the center portion of the platter for both 45rpm and 33 1/3rpm, the 60hz strobe light setting within this app lets me adjust the rotational speed properly until it is locked-in completely for proper playback. Other apps will give you ballpark figures, but only a strobe will give you a proper reading every time. Highly recommend to turntable owners that already own strobe discs or platters.

Perfect
