No, but I have thought many times about picking up the Tracking Wizard template for my turntable from Ebay to get a similar result.So uh. Anyone else here crazy enough to poke at that VinylEngine calculator until they have their own NEW ALIGNMENT SCHEME?? I couldn't be bothered to do the math, but my understanding is that the main two methods don't take into account that the stylus obviously doesn't get any thinner as it moves towards the center of the record, so you want the amount of distortion to roughly decrease by like half as you move from the edge to the label. At the same time, most records, especially these days, don't cut all the way to the label, and if they do it should be a quiet song, so you can have it race off as you get REALLY close to the label. Basically just poked at the calculator until I thought it fit and I don't know if it's much of a breakthrough but I like the results I've been getting. Yellow line in the image below.
