Thanks JohnSmith.

Below is a pic of the front (tried like hell to get the flash right ) and one of the back panel. I think you can see the controls a little better than in the Vestax pic.

Without having spent much time on it, my initial opinion of the 275 is that it's a VERY nice mixer to work with. Everything is laid out just right, all of the controls feel good, and it sounds great. One thing I'm curious about : the cross fader is very loose. To get it to the other side you can almost just tap it with your finger. Are cross faders supposed to be this quick? or is this Vestax's PCV fader technology at work?

Very nice!

I was wondering what the 275 would look like next to the black 1200's (or 1210's). I would have bought black 1200's, but they were on backorder and silver was in-stock. Guess I just couldn't wait!

cool.

yeah, i think all vestax cross faders are this loose. i heard someone bragging that he could blow it across. on the 170 it is that loose too.

one question about this mixer, i notice it doesn't have LEDs for the individual channels. does this mean you have to get the volume levels right in the headphones, and you can't just look at the levels?

or can it be switched so you can see both?

you can see the volume level of the channel(s) that have the cue-switch on, it's the one to the right

hmm..

ok, but there is only two there.

can you have channel one on one side, and channel two on the other side, and the master at the same time?

*edit*
actually, the two are for the master. there is apparently only one for cueing. so, i guess you can only see one track at a time on the cue meter? what happens if you turn on cueing on all 3 channels?

*edit*

what about the center channel?
i assume that is always live?

What's the real difference between the split cue monitor and the old vestax master monitor pfl? I'm going to be getting a pcv mixer to replace my pmc 17a in a month when i graduate... isn't it just a fancy name for the same thing?

If you put cueing on 2 or 3 channels, the LED will show the volume of the channels combined
