A True Piece of Dance Music History: Signed Stanton VRM-10

Produced in 2000, this was Stanton's flagship mixer before they came under new management and went all cheap with their products. This is one of the most visually stunning, amazing sounding mixers ever produced. It features a gorgeous Valve Tube Preamp with a liquid mercury tube indicator (that's right, liquid mercury technology called V-MAX) that actually pulsates to the beat of the audio being outputted. Trust me its just about the coolest thing you've ever seen on a mixer! It also features gigantic 100mm faders, 4 input channels, an array of DSP effects, sweepable midrange, AMAZING High and Lo-Pass FILTERS, and an indestructible, aircraft grade steel build.

The knobs are all constructed of extremely high quality steel and the body is solidly welded together. It is a 19" rackmount design that takes up 8U of rack space.

This mixer in particular has very special and has a long, incredible history. It was first used at an Ultra Festival in Europe and was purchased exclusively for this event. It was used by the likes of Paul van Dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Armin van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, and Kid Van Gelderen. Armin, Ferry, and Kid have actually all signed this mixer as you can see in the pictures. This mixer then passed to a friend of the Ultra promoter. He left for Europe about 6 weeks ago and was sadly forced to sell this mixer. I bought it but now I too am moving and am very reluctantly selling this amazing, true one of a kind machine!

Don't take my word too seriously...but I have seen this mixer for sale like 4 times in last 3 months...

that's a bit strange...although, it might be just my memory playing tricks on me...just thought you might have a clue about what is happening with it

and btw...there's one forum dedicated to selling/buying equipment here on TA I think...


last few words: the mixer is sexaaaaaaaaaaah

Maybe because there has never been an Ultra Festival in Europe, last time i checked, ultra happened in miami. and besides, when at a festival ahve you seen the top DJs in the world take time out of their sets to sign the mixer? NEVER!!!

and c'mon a stanton? honestly, a fucking stanton? at ultra?

i think not....

you obviously have no understanding how good this mixer is.

Sure we can have our doubts about the thing being signed and all the Ultra festival crap but the mixer in itself is a great piece of kit.

Too bad they stopped producing it.

This was a $3000 mixer with valve channels. It was a high end tube analog mixer.
All the bigname Djs where requesting this to play because back when it came out it was the best mixer you could buy.

All of the stuff about Ultra was told to me by the guy I bought it from, and once this thing showed up in the mail I believed him. The flightcase alone is huge, this package was obviously designed for a very high end venue.

I am not sure about the validity of the signatures on this particular mixer, but they did use the VRM-10 on the main stage at Ultra (Miami, not Europe) back in 2003. I saw Oakenfold use it during his performance.
