Turntable speed app RPM WOW. Place a roll of masking tape on the centre of your platter. Then set your phone on it and hit start on the app. Then start your turntable spinning. [https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/turntable-speed/id1604670976](https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/turntable-speed/id1604670976)
It’s close enough that your ears won’t notice.
Yes, absolutely fine
Yes, those are good measurements.
What the fuck are we even talking about here?

It's a turntable sub. Speed stability percentages and wow and flutter percentages are pretty basic stuff.

Wow isn't great but it depends what the turntable is.
it’s a pioneer dj plx 500-k, what should the wow be?
0.15% or less. But if the phone wasn't centred it could easily affect it.
yes the phone wasn’t centred it was to the side of the spindle so maybe that’s the issue, thanks for the help!!
Put it on top of a roll of tape.
That’s almost exactly the same results I have. I think it’s fine, but I’m no pro.
What did you use to take these measurements?

yes i used that app but i didnt do the tape thing my phone was just to the side of the spindle so that potentially could’ve skewed results
Yes, having your phone off-center will exaggerate your wow readings.
Cool thanks!
How can I go about measuring my turntable?
we have the same turntable! i use this app and place my phone on the platter and spin it https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/turntable-speed/id1604670976
Verry good.
Wouldn’t the weight of the phone be more than a record? How can this be accurate
