vestax gone mad!!!

VESTAX QFO DJ TURNTABLE

The QFO is a circular turntable with an integrated 2-channel mixer that was designed in collaboration with performance DJ QBert and Thudrumble's Yoga Frog. This new turntable/mixer provides DJs with a convenient, all-in-one scratch DJ tool for performance or practice.

The QFO's high-torque turntable offers an ASTS (Anti-Skipping Tonearm System) tone arm and pitch control with multiple variations to select from. Also included are two start and stop buttons, which allow the user to create percussive start/stop moves with either hand.

Each channel of the mixer section has a 2-band EQ, and a phono and input switch, allowing users to control the turntable on one channel and a CD player or other external source on the other. Additional mixer features include crossfader curve control, crossfader reverse, and input fader curve and reverse.
WILL BE IN STOCK JUNE 2004!

This thing looks insane!!! so was Q-Bert taking the piss when he told them to make this? i would love to have a play on this thing to see what it can do.

that does NOT look sexy. Blah!!! Give me smooth lines w/ functional components and no bull. I hope your last gf was indeed sexier than that thing otherwise it's pretty mean to call a turntable better looking than your ex gf.

just joking...

Its minging- period.

Looks like it should be in a kitchen and you would use it to make chips.

Too much shit that is on there that is simply not needed- turntablists are a fussy bunch- cant see them catching on, wih the exception of the scratch perverts.
And as technics sponsor the DMC world champs.....well....its hardly gonna be prevalent there is it.

I don't like straight tonearms.

Aside from that, while it looks neat, it seems to me that it has a lot of extra features that are pretty useless and are only there to drive up the price. Just give me a reliable table with a decent torque and a good pitch control, be it Vestax, Technics, Numark, whatever. Turntablists can keep that one.

One question to ask yourself if u were considering getting that TT "Do i really need that?"
