BUT its already peaking and going like +6 on the meter in Logic. any way to fix it? and how do i avoid this in the future? ...

I googled the problem and it seems that its really common for these things to freeze up from hardening grease- but mines not frozen. if i move it by hand, it moves pretty fr...

Why? Why if you "care that much" should you be expected to covet some physical thing? Can you not love music and simultaneously not give a shit about holding a record in your hand? Sheesh...
