No the needle doesn't jump at all. It kinda just drops the key of the song by about half a semitone for a second or two

 

For anyone who doesn't know what a "semitone" is, here you go.

 

In twelve-tone equal temperament all semitones are equal in size (100 cents). In other tuning systems, "semitone" refers to a family of intervals that may vary both in size and name. In Pythagorean tuning, seven semitones out of twelve are diatonic, with ratio 256:243 or 90.2 cents (Pythagorean limma), and the other five are chromatic, with ratio 2187:2048 or 113.7 cents (Pythagorean apotome); they differ by the Pythagorean comma of ratio 531441:524288 or 23.5 cents. In quarter-comma meantone, seven of them are diatonic, and 117.1 cents wide, while the other five are chromatic, and 76.0 cents wide; they differ by the lesser diesis of ratio 128:125 or 41.1 cents. 12-tone scales tuned in just intonation typically define three or four kinds of semitones. For instance, Asymmetric five-limit tuning yields chromatic semitones with ratios 25:24 (70.7 cents) and 135:128 (92.2 cents), and diatonic semitones with ratios 16:15 (111.7 cents) and 27:25 (133.2 cents).

Already in long term memory; thank you.

You should get a turntable with a stronger motor then because warping doesn't affect sound it just makes tracking more difficult. If you're experiencing changing tones then your table is struggling to spin past the warp, a tone dropping means it's spinning slower.

I would up vote this but for some reason it won't let me. It might be because I hit my limit less than 24 hours ago.

I figure my motor is fine then. A few of my warps have no difference in sound.

That would make sense. I wouldn't say I have a good turn table AT ALL, I was about to post a WTB thread for one. Because what I have is actually one of those Crosley 5 in 1's, I haven't liked it since day 1 but it was a gift from my mother.

That's your problem, bro.

 

 

and there ya go

 

 

Oof.

Haha yes. Thank you from the peanut gallery. I'm well aware my player is less than acceptable. It's kinda all I've ever had. And for what I've heard Legit turn tables are kinda pricey and I'm super tight on cash. So for now it'll have to do I suppose.
