Can you get it to emulate various ways in which records are bent?

E.g. In 2002, I bought a Nat King Cole for 1 CAD (0.45 £; 0.70 ¤) in a 
garage sale in Îles-de-la-Madeleine (easternmost Canada) across the street 
from my grandparents' house, but it got stored in the car for several days 
midsummer while we were travelling back. Part of the disc acts as a ramp 
that makes the needle perform a glorious jump into the air and then slam 
back into the groove. The duration of the tracks on this records thus 
depend heavily on whether it's played with a radial arm vs a linear arm.
