Oops I actually zipped the incorrect files as I had done a number of measurements attempting to get the signal in audacity stable. I initially used a 10x scope probe but this caused too much attenuation for the Focusrite.
I have only attached the OEM and SS platters as there is little difference between SS and GM/Delrin in mass.

You're right the Focusrite (FR) was doing something weird. I wasn't watching the scope trace as I recorded the wav's. The trace was stable then threw a wobbly.
Check this measurement what I did was use a 10dB attenuator to place a load across the FR. The FR is no longer loading the scope trace.
What SW package are you using to analyse the trace?

The discussion since posts #1683, #1700 has been about determining the audible effect of replacing the mk2 OEM platter with SS, gunmetal, Delrin/SS. No claims of any effect on speed stability were made. The suggestion by others that the heavier platters had a negative effect on speed stability, is not true, based on Warrjon's FG captures and JP's analysis.
Anyone with an OEM platter can compare their data with the wavs provided by Warrjon for heavier platters.
I don't see any dancing.
My bench has been full of SP10's being repaired so no room to do FG W&F testing. Sorry just been busy building and repairing SP10 stuff...
Bon was kind enough to capture 3150Hz tone from his new Vinyl Check test LP, which BTW looks pretty good, way better than the Ulimate Analog Test LP W&F track.
Keep in mind that his 10R has a different cartridge to his mk2, which would account for the difference in W&F between the two.

This is what I've busy toiling over. Removing the motor from the aluminium chassis and mounting it in a bentonite plinth.
An SP10mk2 Signature with a long list of modifications.
Resin bentonite plinth.
Remote motor mounting.
Motor redrilled for 3 mounting bolts.
Modified motor rotor to increase rigidity.
Bearing brace.
Gunmetal / Delrin platter.
EPA100
New brass CW stub.
Threaded Stainless CW with locking ring.
Variable viscous damping.
Upgrades to come
New GM / Delrin platter with thicker Delrin
Further motor damping modifications.
