[78-L] Gradual pitch shifting, was Pitch shifting

[martha]

Here's a large and very clear photo of the Controller:

  But I don't see how a speed or pitch changing program will work, because 
the rate at which the speed changes isn't constant, but rate itself 
gradually changes with each revolution of the record .   You might be best 
off to replace the rubber on the wheel & use the Controller.  (Note the even 
in this pic, the rubber is cracked)

ps: I wonder if records were often scratched or broken, when the owner 
failed to make them clear that overhanging gizmo !
