What kind of turntable do you own? Belt-drive, direct-drive, or idler-drive? I am going to guess it's a belt-drive. First, I would do nothing until you receive and install your new belt. Second, would depend upon your tt has a stand-alone motor where you can move the motor towards or away from the platter. Sometimes that is sufficient to adjust speed, although it is not intellectually satisfying. If your motor is fixed in position with respect to your platter, and if once you get the new belt your tt is still "fast", then consider a motor controller.
Vocals sound slightly high pitched?
This happens with all the records I've played so far. My turntable's set to the right speed (I know because when I flick the speed switchn to the other setting, it sounds chip-munky and twice as fast). At the moment, the vocals are slightly high pitched (noticeably but not unbearably). Is this just something that'll go away as my cartridge breaks in or is there something wrong with my setup? Thanks.
