Digital turntable control

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Wiring for DCC : One Thread

I'm wondering whether any manufacturer does a digitally controlled turntable? There have been rumours of Roco and Fleischmann producing such things, but I haven't yet found a dealer who even understands what I'm asking (I live in the UK and DCC doesn't seem to have really caught on over here yet). I'd be perfectly happy to build my own controller, or turntable for that matter, but haven't found any references on the web. Can anyone help? I guess the minimum specification is; which way should it turn, and which road should it stop at?

Many thanks, Steph
