So you can “respect the music.”

Yamaha’s Design Lab has developed a device that transforms listeners’ smartphones into a turntable platter.

The boxy gadget incorporates a speaker and a ‘stylus’ that sits on top of a smartphone screen to play selected songs and albums.

Playback is controlled and adjusted, as with most smartphone apps, by pressing and swiping on the screen.

The TurnT is one of a number of prototype music devices designed to work in symbiosis with smartphone apps.

Other inventions in the collection include a mechanical winder and a candle-powered player.
