strobe discs for record players

hi all,

I was at a turntable demo recently and the sales chappy kept getting out a strobe disc and light to tweak the speed (which sounded fine to me), which made me wonder if my player is playing at a consistly right speed.

Did some tinternet searching on the usual sites for 'accessories' and no one seems to sell these. Do you guys ever use them to test/tweak your TT's? And if so, where can I get one?

Presume I need both a disc and a light?

 

there's a free on to download and print off ....

Thanks Zanash, I'll give it a whirl tonight.

 

Try www.vinylengine.com

There's a few on there too, and I think there are some posts with details of strobe lights if you need one too.
