Skating force at 45rpm


Recently got Brahm's piano concerto at 45rpm. I noticed that I needed to increase antiskate setting ( over my usual 33rpm setting )to maintain a even soundfield.

Is skating force higher on higher rpm?

I would prefer to stay out of arguing whether antiskate is setting is necessary.

THank you.

Magnepan Unitrac I and Denon 103D(very low effective mass and high compliance). No problems here either, and I pay a great deal of attention to sound stage/imaging. It could be that your arm is more resistant to lateral displacement, than your cartridge's compliance, at the higher speed. Does your cantilever skew to the inside at all, at 45rpm?
