I wonder how it will work on my old warped vinyl records?
I've got a 45 I must have left in the sun, and it has waves literally an
inch and a half high, circling around the center. The needle can't come
within an inch of the troughs.
I call it a rock and roll record.
Keeping it centered to within half a track width or less might be
difficult with the needle applying a side force which is probably not
consistent across the tone arm swing. I expect to see a levitated
tone arm in the next version.
And maybe a levitated easy chair and ottoman!
Fighting gravity seems to be the current obsession in turntables:
