One of the coolest vinyl records I've got is Bleep "the launchpad" - released on SSR in [1989 (I think)]. It's House by the artist currently known as Biosphere :) |

Is vinyl really that cool? I was thinking of starting to get into it at sam ash they have 2 turntables and a mixer starter set for 300$, debating on wether i should get into the vinyl scene or just stick with cds. |

Yeah, It's HEAPS of fun! :) |

vinyl is only expensive if you buy tons of shit just to have it - you need to learn how to skip things that have only two good tracks on them (like BOC's hi scores ep, confield, drukqs) and only buy stuff thats really good if you want to DJ - dont play yourself and save up for technics 1200's and a real (rane / vestax) mixer - otherwise you'll be wasting $300 - no joke records soung better, are harder to move around, and harder to take care of, but they're fun and people wont think your a total asshole if you do a "dj" set on your laptop real dj's use vinyl |

I got a lot of records yesterday (about 15) and it only cost me £60. You just have to be prepared to take your time looking (or rather listening) through the bargain bins, white labels etc. to find quality "filler" dirt cheap. One of the things I like about DnB is the amount you get on 12" white labels for £1 or £2 which sounds pretty much as good as commercial DnB. More and more "mobile DJs" in the USA are using laptops... a sad state of affairs. Vestax (or Allen and Heath) are the only good mixers I've ever used. After using one Gemini etc. seem like a joke. On a serious note vinyl is a bitch to move around and DJing of all kinds gives you a bad back (one of the reasons for 2 nights poor sleep this week have been bad backs). |

Excellent! |

vestax makes nice mixers for sure - yep yep - i used to have a 07 pro - now i use rane - rane's are smoooooooove - word |

ceriJxc hit it there. I´d spend hours once a month in a shop near me "Final Vinyl" and spend 40 quid on 10 vinyls of obscure cool shit (i got the ghostbuster theme 12inch there last time for 2 quid!) |
||||||||
|
|

final vinyl - thats really funny their used to be a store by the same name near where i lived in new jersey - crazy times records are cheap cause dumbass people think they're worthless - the best shit was when i would go through kids houses in high school cause their parents "just wanted them gone" - i got an original copy of sgt peppers on wax and john lennon's plastic ono band - CRAZY SHIT YES |

I'm considering saving for a PMC06ProD (Samurai one), but I need to get a regular paid gig to fund that. The PCV-37 looks absolutely lush. I should of entered a local battle just to get a go on one (it was run by vestax, grand prize was the PCV-37). I wouldn't of won in a million years (I'm crap), but if I had found out about the competition early enough to of entered I might of at least got a go on it. I wish I could afford £800 for a mixer :/ Keys: Yes, a lot of interesting stuff is vinyl only white label as well. I've got a great Drum and Bass / Illbient hybrid by Spoox that sounds great and only cost me £1. Acappellas, Mix tools & battle wax are quite expensive though. I got a nice locked groove one yesterday. It's really good, but it was £10 for one disc and only about 5 minutes actual sound on it. Still, I got a nice 2 disc breakbeat one for £7.50 |

good lord - the vestax 05 pro is everything you need anyway - and those go for $400 USD - good lord the samurai thing sounds like a skam to me no one but sponsored dj's and rich white kids can afford the new vestax mixers - so they figure they'll put a spider on a blue one add some bullshit effect that doesnt do much and hike up the price - its also worth more since ISP is now no more buy an 05 pro - or an 07 pro - 07's w/ the laser guided cross faders - good lord - i remember what my old one felt like - sweater than candy vestax's are a BITCH for studio recording and effects processor using - stick w/ rane - more capabale zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing |

I got a nicv n jazzy dnb whitesleeve thing with a big green sticker describing as it being from some bloke who engineered some old photek stuff once.. its great and i mixed it with "Boac" off lp5 on the weekend.. it has exactly the same rise n fall timing... |

Yes, I've noticed the FX loop of my vestax PMC-270 is the only weak part of the model. The Samurai do resolve the crossfader issues although like you say, they have few new features. The normal PMC05 is very tempting too. None of the tiny backwater DJing shops here will let me demo them though (they have to order them). Oh for somewhere I can ring up and say, "Look, I'm not some kid messing about- I will buy one of the following mixers. Set up two PDX2000s and a PMC05 a PMC06ProD and the new Stanton Scratch mixer. I'll brng my own records and headshells etc." I'm screwed if I'm paying £400+ for a mixer without having a go on it first and as none of my mates have them I'm a bit scuppered. It's almost worth a trip across country to "hard to find records", just because they're big enough to actually let you demo stuff. I don't mind paying a lot for equipment if I will use it a lot. I save up really hard for it and there's a real sense of achievement when you have enough to buy it. Euphonic- Yes, I'm currently being given old records by people who don't want them anymore :D |

I love those A4 paper inserts with artist info/contact details you get on white labels too. |

yeah being given records is NICE!!! honestly its like this 05pro - is a work horse - isnt the smoothest thing in the world but is a beast, will handle anything and last forever 07pro - the rolex of mixers - im not shitting you 07 pro samurai thing - rolex w/ diamon bezzle - seriously ive used em all and i would choose (for money's sake) the 07pro if you got it - if not the 05 is just as sturdy but not as smooth again rane's are worth looking into - i was a die hard vestax die and now that i produce i cant fuck w/ my rane i rane over all (or whatever) |

I've not had a blast on Raines (either too expensive/not popular in the UK) yet. What is it about them that's so good? Have you used an 06 at all? I really like the idea of how small it is and having it and my decks in a tiny coffin flightcase. At the moment I like a left style setup (mixer,deck,deck) with the decks in battle style and for that reason the PMC05 also appeals to me (using the 06 leftstyle would defeat the point). Having the curve control out in the open on the 05 (I think it's under a panel on the 06) is also a plus point. Would you recommend a pro05 over an 06ProD Samurai (price aside)? One of the major things I like about the samurai series (from what I've read) is the very hardwearing crossfader. I've heard from a couple of people the non samurai versions start to bleed quite quickly although it is quite quietly. I hate bleeding. A pub/club I played in last night had a crossfader that bled (only very slightly) and it did my head in. |

What is it about them (ranes) that's so good? - they connect nicely to studio gear, and have great ins and outs for effects etc. vestax mixers are for scratching and cutting and ranes are for mixing and producing (i feel) - they seem to be designed for two different types of dj's Have you used an 06 at all? - the slim jim one right? i had one for a little while - unless you like to beat juggle there isnt really much point to having one - they are slim but SOOO slim - i didnt like the one i had so i traded it towards an 07pro At the moment I like a left style setup (mixer,deck,deck) - weird - i saw dj premier do that once - blew my mind - i do deck mixer deck - battle style w/ the tone arms straight across the top - makes scratching easier as you have a larger area of the record exposed - plus for mixing drum n bass you can play w/ the records easier this way Having the curve control out in the open on the 05 (I think it's under a panel on the 06) is also a plus point. - i dont have a coffin - no need - YET - but what i do is line up the front edge of my decks w/ my mixer - straight line style - then push my mixer back about 1 to 2 inches - so my mixers knobs on the front - not top - but front are between my decks and sorta hidden - this way you dont bump em - and w/ the cross fader higher up cuts and record changes are quicker! Would you recommend a pro05 over an 06ProD Samurai (price aside)? - i would yes - i dont like the feel of the 06pro - i dont feel like its big enough to manipulate - the fader is nice - but it really is designed for beat juggling - super cramped One of the major things I like about the samurai series (from what I've read) is the very hardwearing crossfader. - jesus yes - you may have to replace it once - vestax's faders cant be fuct w/ - well except for rane's ttm56 which has WATER PROOF faders - hahah I've heard from a couple of people the non samurai versions start to bleed quite quickly although it is quite quietly. - didnt happen to |
||||||||

|

| |||||||||
|

me - but i think you can drop a samurai fader into an 07pro - youll only need one for the main fader - not three!!! email someone - and ask |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Thanks for the tips euphonic. I've read claims that the Samurais aren't just waterproof- even sugar based drinks spills don't affect performance! Hmm I think I'm being swayed towards the normal PMC05, it's an extra £200 for the samurai and I think I'd probably just go for the Pro. I've often wondered about putting different crossfaders into mixers... it might be worth checking out first, like you say- £70 crossfaders are not something to be taken lightly ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah - well i remember when the 07 came out the laser guided thing revoluionized t-tablism - we were all going crazy for em - and i THINK - that the samurai's fit in the 07's the thing to do - maybe - is buy an 07 used and replace the faders!!! i saw a promo video for the rane 56 before it was released and they removed the middle fader - put it in a glass of coca cola and it still worked while completely submerge - fuck w/ that, you know what i mean...good gracious |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

i wish they made a fader that was malt liqour proof - then i would be set fycking liqour on the mixer "the dj got drunk and poured liqour on his mixer" - AWOL ONE |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||

Re: the 07 used, very good idea. I think I'll do that. The upfaders probably won't need it will they? One of the advantages of drinking straight vodka as your tipple of choice is that it tends not to clog stuff up when you spill it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
true - wodka is good that way - i woundnt change the vertical faders and i use my volume knobs more that them - but thats my way of doing things (not necessarily the corret way) - one thing i do know (though) is that when something on your mixer isnt what your used to you compensate for it itll all work out in the end |
