Buying Turntables

Go with the Stanton or look for the Numark budget packages. Anything else will be insanely flimsy.

Honestly you shouldn't be buying turntables this late in the game. Go digital.

My advice would be to go for the best CD turntables that you can afford, ones that play mp3s and have an accurate vinyl platter motion.

I know guys, I'm planning on controlling my HD with a software package and control vinyl. In other words, I have and have had the digital. I want the look and feel of analog. Plus, I still have records and I want to listen to them, sample etc.

However, except for the price, the Dennon S-35000 looks sweet. I've played with the older belt-drive model. Definately scratchable, etc.

So I figured, the Stanton pack looks good unless I find a better deal?

Thas fine if your starting out.. Look around ebay, sometimes they have tech 1200's for cheap.. Good luck

Rane Mixer, Tech 1200's serato, synchmaster.. ect ect EV 15"ers.. just paid for my EFX 500 :D

The numark budget pack isn't bad at all. But if you are serious about this, get tech's because you will outgrow those stantons or numarks pretty quick.

They don't hold their pitch extremely well so when you doing LONG mixes it fucks u up

Oh my roomate works for the music department at the bestbuys here in socali :D

Word, I kinda thought they would be flimsy, and you can definately fix a good product like Technics, I will go with 1200's if I can find them. I wonder how much pitch accuracy matters when it comes to control vinyl? I plan on no more than 10 minutes of one track.

what kind of music

**Clark Miller** · 08-12-2007, 01:24 PM

All kinds, mostly Electro and Hip-Hop style mixing, as in, not a lot of long mixes letting the record play. Battle style on occasion.

My opinion is not to buy cheap turntable . I suggest you to buy a pair of technics : great quality great endurance
