-- cdj800 mk1???

cdj800 mk1???

anybody know of any websites, preferably in the states that has these brand new??? im sure whatever stock pioneer had is probbly long gone by now...but since i dont need mp3 capabilities, it'd be nice to have

I think you're out of luck dude if the stock in the U.K is anything to go by sold out ages aago.

Ebay it!

Sold out a looong time ago. Very unlikely you'd find it new.

Available used only. If you're careful & buy sensibly you should be cool buying used. Lifespan is good on these, I've had mine some time now & still perform perfectly.

I gotta stop saying that, it's probably gonna be the kiss of death now!!!

Why do you want to buy the mk1 brand new? when the mk2 is exactly the same price? puzzling

He obviously thought that seeing as they are now the old model, they would be cheaper

I would buy an MK1 over the MK2 because of the Touch Release feature on the MK1, which sadly enough Pioneer took it off on the MK2.

Oh yeah, I forgot, Six Star DJ has them.

Touch release?

There's the touch/release knob (controlling starting/breaking times, which is on both models) and there's the quick return (which makes it return to the cue point and start playing again when you tap the platter) which is also on both models...

What they DID change (for the worse) between the mk1 and mk2 was they've screwed up the way the deck acts if you've got master tempo on and you do a slow break.

I'll sell you two CDJ800MK1s that are in PERFECT condition (seriously) for 1200 canadian. :P

No! The touch release that I'm talking about is different. On the 800 MK1, if you cued a song, and paused it, than just touch the platter, the song will start without having to press play. You don't need the QUICK RETURN activated. If you have the quick return activated, than the song will start from your cue point every time you touch the platter.

You can't do that on the MK2 or the 1000.

yep...i figured they were all long gone by now. its been quite a while. i'll probably end up getting a cdj200 just so i have another source in my setup. only gripe is that torq only has enough for two sources to be plugged in. bah!

Yes indeed it's a strange one. This is how I start all my cued tracks as the start button is so responsive it sometimes registers 2 hits when you press it - it starts then immediately stops again.

I'm forcing myself to use the start button again as a mate of mine has 1 x mk1 & 1 x mk2 & I'm now so used to my mk1's when I'm round his place I keep messing up by using the touch start on the platter for the cued track on his mk2 & having nothing happen
