Advantage Drive motor is mounted away from the floating platform, reducing vibration caused by the motor. Drive motor is directly mounted to the rotating platform. RPMs are more consistent, reducing jitter and skew. Most common configuration of tone arm pivots along an arc; lower cost, fewer active parts. Disadvantages Belts age and can gain slack, adding distortion to the rate of playback.

Loose belts can commonly be replaced. Drive motor is less insulated from the rotating platform, increasing the susceptibility of the motor to cause interference of distortion.
