Sibilence in one channel means?


I used a mintTractor and thought I got the setup spot on, but I've been noticing that when I hear siblence on vocals, that I think it pulls to the left channel - leading me to suspect that something is not correct.

Any thoughts? Azimuth? VTA?

I also hear 'lead in' on tracks (the beginning of the song starts faintly before it 'really' starts. This may also be in the left channel now that I think about it.

Thanks in advance for any advice (Dynavector 20XL on a VPI Scoutmaster w/sig JMW arm).

Counter-clockwise is the way to twist it. I use no anti-skate at all with the 10.5i and prefer it(recommended by Stringreen and others). As I understand it, shorter arms benefit from anti-skate more so you may want to try the twist though many use the 9s without also. Also, bear in mind that some records have siblance as part of the character of the recording and may not be correctable.
