It is intended for DJs using digital vinyl systems who want a stable, high-output signal sent from the turntable to compatible software. The single-cartridge format provides one direct-mount Concorde cartridge with its stylus installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts 10 mV output is optimized to provide a strong signal for timecode decoding. Ortofon designs the DIGITAL model to reduce the reproduction of frequencies associated with vinyl wear and crackle, helping minimize decoding errors. It can also be used for conventional vinyl playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cartridge uses a spherical diamond stylus on an aluminium cantilever. Its 20 Hz to 18 kHz frequency range and 22 dB channel separation at 1 kHz support clear signal retrieval for DJ applications. Recommended tracking force is 4 g, within a specified 3 to 5 g range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Concorde MKII platform uses a direct bayonet\/SME mounting interface rather than a conventional screw-mounted cartridge body. This design lets it attach directly to compatible tonearms without cartridge alignment. The cartridge measures 51.5 mm in effective length and weighs 18.5 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CONCORD DIGITAL SINGLE is a practical replacement or upgrade for a DJ turntable used with timecode records. It is optimized specifically for timecoded vinyl while retaining compatibility with standard record playback. When the stylus eventually requires replacement, use the Ortofon Stylus CC MKII Digital.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTimecode Optimization:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tailored response helps reduce errors when decoding timecoded vinyl.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10 mV Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides a strong signal to compatible DJ software interfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpherical Diamond Stylus:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built for dependable groove contact in DJ use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminium Cantilever:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports precise stylus movement during record playback.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDirect Concorde Mount:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bayonet\/SME fit installs directly on compatible tonearms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplaceable Stylus:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses the dedicated Stylus CC MKII Digital replacement stylus.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cartridge combines the integrated Concorde MKII form factor with an aluminium cantilever and spherical diamond stylus.
