Hello, all! Noob here.
I've been beating my head against the wall with this one. I just purchased an AT-LP120-USB and so far it's been great, except for the fact that the audio cuts out/skips at the start/end of each song.
I've watched and read many tutorials about on setting up the tracking force and anti-skating (admittedly, it probably needs more fine tuning due to my inexperience) but for the life of me I can't find anyone with the same problem, and endless Google searches yielded no answers. I have tried just barely touching the headshell with my fingertip and it seems to fix the problem; adding more tracking force only makes it sound worse and doesn't really seem to fix it.
Everything is stock; I have the tracking force set to 2.0g as per the manual, and set the anti-skating to the same or less. Checked that the turntable is level. The three different records I've tried have all been brand new.
Thanks for the help in advance! Hopefully I didn't miss anything...
