The entire pickup moves to do tracking.


The entire pickup moves only when the tracking error reaches a certain
point, at which time the pickup is bumped a bit, and the tracking coils
re-center. Unless we're talking about an old Philips pivoting pickup with no
tracking coils...

But I'm pretty sure you knew this anyway.
