Rotary friction pulls the stylus toward the centre of the disc even when it is blank. In the groove this means extra pressure on the inner wall. To offset this, bias compensation in the form of a small weight which is lifted on a string or pivoted lever by the inward arm travel, or by attraction from a weak magnet, is provided.
"I recently sent you an LP to transfer to CD. What a fantastic job!!! The sound quality is excellent---not a "pop" or "crackle"!!! Not only will I use your services again, but I will refer all of my friends to your site! Also, the turn around time from my hands to yours and then back again was great. I hardly missed not having the album. Thanks, ..."
