Nobody special.
ARGH!!! Someone PLEASE help me with my Denon turntable!

If someone can please help me I'd sure appreciate it. I pre ordered the new Black Crowes album and it finally arrived today. It's a two record set. One of the records is white vinyl and the other is green clear vinyl, which is very cool except for one thing... I have a Denon DP-51F turntable which has an infrared record sensing beam. It senses the white vinyl fine but it won't recognize the green clear vinyl. I have previously printed the users manual for it on vinyl engine but of course the only page I can't find is the one that tells you the process of how to play clear records. On top of this I forgot my vinyl engine information so it won't let me log in. Can anyone tell me how to make it recognize the green clear vinyl???

I'm dying to hear the rest of this release! The recording of this album from what I've heard so far is great!!!

Get a piece of dark colour paper, trace the LP on it cut out the round disk and place it under the LP.
It should work, hope it does.:music:
 
You should be able to lift the mat, rotate 45 degrees, and lay it back on the platter. That will cover the holes the laser aims for.

This is what I do for my 47F. Don't know if your model has the same set up but it is something to check.

YEP!!! That was the ticket! I owe ya one dude. Thank you!!!:music::music::music:

By the way... If anyone is on the fence about buying this record, get it. It's pressed and recorded excellent.
 
My Mitsubishi LT-20 came with paper 12" and 7" masks to lay on the platter for this very reason, I wonder if the Denon had them at some point? I was surprised that my used TT still had them...sign of a careful previous owner I guess.
 
I got my LT-20(22) second hand too and the the masks are long gone.
The ones I have now are home made.

BTW, do you have the graphite headshell from Mitsubishi ?

Glad you got that whipped! As an aside, your previous upload to Vinyl Engine seems to have somehow disappeared? I logged in and found it on the list for Denon, clicked it, but there was this note: "There are currently no downloads available for this model. If you have any documentation for the DP-51F please consider donating a copy to our free archive."

Weird, huh?
 
Sorry... The one I had printed out was for the DP-35F. I have a 35F also as a back up:D. The 51F and the 35F are basically the same table except for the 51F is fancier. Sorry, I should have specified that. Vinyl engine does not have the manual for the 51F.:music:
 
Found the Black crowes this past weekend , they had one left at my local store , cool colored vinyl , thanks again for the tip! :thmbsp:
