any time you process music it loses quality... it loses quality with ever extra inch of wire, and every unit that is used to process the music. so no its not just you... : ) honestly the simplest setup sounds the best. thats why its much better to just keep your needles and records in good shape so you dont have to put it through any digital filters and such

I don't know about where you guys are from, but here in Melb many ravers bring talc (talcum powder) into clubs/parties to dance on.
No matter how high up the deejay booth is, the shit ends u all over your records. That plus sweaty hands (hey i get nervous! )makes substance like plaster. Which can be a real ****** if you don't clean it.


I usually use warm (not hot), soapy water.

i use swiffer cloths to clean my vinyl of dust and whatever else sticks to them. they have some kind of anti-static property to them, so they work so great. you can use the same sheet for like 2 weeks, and then just change it.
i usually wipe down my vinyl every time i see anything on them. for fingerprints i use a really diluted solution of some glass and surface cleaner that contains no ammonia and won't harm acrylics.

ah one other thing, if you get your vinyl wet, don't play it for 24 hours. let it dry...you can't just wipe down the inside of your grooves, they are too small.

for tough problems i use a damp paper towel that i put some mild dish soap on, then wipe that off with another damp paper towel, then dry, and let dry overnight. that works really great!
