Technical Support / Needle-up timer resets without...
Last post by Javic - February 05, 2026, 06:25:58 PM
Just installed 15.2.3 and encountered an issue I've not seen before. At the end of side 1, the needle-up timer begins with the default countdown of 20. My turntable automatically lifts the tonearm and returns it to rest. The timer reaches 18 or 17, and then resets to 20. It then counts down to 18 or 17 again, and resets again. This process--counting down a few seconds and then resetting to 20--continues until I press Stop. (I let it go for about 8 repetitions.)

I was able to continue recording side 2 by manually selecting it. This is my first (and only so far) recording with the latest version so I can't yet say if the problem is repeatable.

As far as I know, I've done nothing different with this recording than what I've done dozens of times before. User error (if so, what) or bug? Happy to do a bit of work to help diagnose if somebody can suggest what to do without (I hope) having to record side 1 all over again.

Looking for suggestions for a ADC with/without a phono amp. My budget is $500 to $1000.

Technical Support / Re: Configuration of a Korg DS...
Last post by Indy33 - January 24, 2026, 09:21:49 PM
The reinstall did not help.

I have not been able to update any win10 machines for a long time. Yesterday I figured out the problem, so now all my computers are updated. Wish I would have tried the Korg before MS updates.The first computer did not have updates, but the second one did.

I wonder could that be the problem, but im sure yours was up to date .....uhm.

Have you any experience with the Korg MR-1000 or MR-2000???

I really couldn't say, but that sounds like a sensible course of action.

That didn't work for me.

Thinking that I will just do a reinstall of Windows 10 and see what happens. The original computer was on Win10 and I moved it to another Win10 computer ..... should work don't you think?

Update:

I uninstalled the Korg driver installed on my machine and reinstalled it from here:

https://www.korg.com/us/support/download/software/0/529/2583/

Then it started working.  You can tell because you can hear a relay switching over inside the Korg when you click on the radio buttons (and the setting 'sticks').

Tested on Windows 11 25H2.

Technical Support / Re: Location tag

I'm not sure anymore to be honest, but the reason that box exists is that iTunes on older iPhones misbehaves if you check it.  We'll review it when time permits.

In the meantime, you might like to explore the Custom Tags editor - you can probably set it that way.

Quote from: Paul Sanders (AlpineSoft) on January 23, 2026, 08:27:07 AMHi,

It's still supported, but VinylStudio only puts it in if you check the 'Include grouping tag' box in the Settings dialog, not sure why.


Is that why there was always both LICATION and GROUPING with the same value?
I am using Lyrion and a recent change means that GROUPING is now used in a specific way so I cleared all my GROUPING tags and switched off "Incluge grouping tag" for future needledrops. I didn't expect LOCATION to disappear as well!?

Hello again,

I looked into this and our code that used to work no longer does.  We haven't changed anything so it looks like either (a) Korg have changed their driver, or (perhaps more likely) (b) it no longer works properly under Windows 11.

I will get in touch with them to see if they're prepared to help out.  If so, we will fix VinylStudio and issue an update.
