Guest SKYSCRAPER Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 DO NOT GET BELT DRIVESGet a numark mixer, you can get them cheap2nd hand pair of 1210'sWhack it into your stereo and you're rolling.EXACTLY what I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 the response on 1210s>>>>>>>>>>_____________ if a track's too slow and u speed it up using the pitch the result is immediately noticable, other less expensive turntables have a delay. I learned on sum lightweight numarks and when i first got my 1210s i couldn't use them for sh*t, now it's the other way around, which is kinda good because most clubs have 1210s or 1200s as standard. If ur gonna do hip hop make sure u buy scratch toner arms and sum concorde needles.LMAO, I had some purple numark belt drives to start off on. First time I played out was on Technics. I failed HARD. Had to draw for them the following week and it was like learning all over again. Not what I've got at home now tho.ARGHH MY GORD!!!!!I spent a year mixing at home and at my uncles with BELT DRIVE SOUND LABS and a 2 Channel mixer, It literally had 2 channels and a crossfader NOTHING else. Then............HERE is a picture of me at thirteen years of age DJing in public for the first time. On some NEXT Vestax, with digital pitch control. you can imagine my shock when I was trying to slow the vynil down (as pictured) by gripsing the pivot axle with my fingers. Accidently pressing buttons which began to play the vynil BACKWARDS. Moments after some chick tore up the place with her mixing abilities. I wont even lie to you all, I cried in the car on the way home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it, break it down for me...To get the records in time, on belt drives you can hold the pin that comes up through the vynil and stop it spinning as fast. On direct drrives this has 1% effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Luv Doc Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 What's the cheapest place to pick up a new concorde needle?
