So i have the promo of 3rd earth, and there is this one part of the song, which i think the needle was dropped on it or something which makes it keep looping on that spot, i was just wondering if there anyways to fix this.
i read about the burn through method , i havent tried backspinning yet but i will try that, if you guys know of any methods please let me know, thank you .
i hope i dont have to ditch another 8 pounds for this promo, DAMN! |

| Can you send it back and exchange it? If it was like that brand new, then you should be able to...:o |

| u can do the adding weight and backspinning or if you feel confident enough, take a sewing needle to the fukkered bit, which should be less damage, but i take no responsibilities for your actions :p |

What kind of needles do you have? I know that the quality of the needle can really affect how well it holds the grooves.
Maybe try messing with your counterweight as well? I have had the same problem with a record of mine. I noticably saw my needle start to wobble when it hit that spot. I tweaked my counterweight a bit, and it still wobbled, but didn't skip, but I guess it depends on how bad the scratch is in the record. |

I tried adding weight, went for more than 5 but it still made the needle jump back a lil bit to keep doing an endless loop :rolleyes:
can you let me know what you mean by the sewing needle, what should i do with it ??

| crud that blows. Lol i already said this in a post with u in it, but have you tried putting your counterweight on backwards for maximum counterweightage? If you're lucky it may just work with a quality backspin. At any rate, I'd just wait for your next paycheck from silvercity to show up. Yea it sucks to have 8 pounds down the tube and have to wait another week or whatever. |

Hey guys, just to let some of you know i did fix my record, thanks for all the help, iM SOO HAPPY :D :D :D :tongue2
for those that are wondering, i just used a rough surface (rough t-shirt) to make the groove the same height so it just "passes" by the "hole" that the needle made. |
