Originally posted by pagoda Yup, one shitty ass Numark and one sexy ass mk3. They were on sale at Guitar Center for 400 instead of 450 throughout March, but I couldn't pull the money together. Now that I'm finally getting 40hrs a week though, I would think I should have it in the next month or so. And then comes a better mixer. And fuck, if one of you guys wants my old tables I'll be happy to give them away-same with the mixer but I have to buy a new one first...I remember how bad I wanted tables, even having shitty ass ones is better than nothing. Let me know if you guys might want to take them off my hands when I get some new stuff. I was gonna give them to a friend, but he backed out because he would have to buy records . Give me a fucking break man, I could always spare a couple bucks a month for vinyl, and I sure as shit wouldn't refuse free tables... Or if you guys wanna just play around with the tables we could arrange that, sort of a miny colorado ta party or something...that would be cool. I never get to play out, all the tools around here don't like "Paul Oakenfold type-stuff" as I was told I play.

HELL YEAH MAN, I'D DEFINITELY TAKE THOSE TABLES OFF YOUR HANDS!!! the sooner i learn how to mix the better! i cant believe techs are only 400 at guitar center...cheapest price ive seen so far. the old cheapest price was $439.99 on 123dj.com but after adding in shipping and shit it'd be more soooooooo. i cant believe your friend refused free tables cuz he didnt wanna buy vinyl!! i'm broke as a joke but i can still afford a couple records a month

Man you shoulda seen digi's face light up when I told him what you posted pagoda!!!! Like a fuckin 6 yr old on christmas morning!

lol, damn straight! oh yeah pagoda, how well can you mix cuz if you'd be willing to teach me that would be pimp. i'm moving to denver either sometime in april or early may, hopefull the former. but yeah, if you'd show me a few tips or just general mixing skills we could spin back to back sometime just chillin like the ukta's do. then we can watch mindshifters horrible track selection skillz

btw, what model numarks do you have pagoda?

They're TT1520s. They're direct drive, but they can't hold a steady pitch for very long.

I'd definitely be willing to show you guys what I know-I can mix pretty well, I need to get another Tech though. I'll have songs beatmatched perfectly but by the time I need to mix I'll have to adjust it at least once since the Numark drifts. It's not that big of a deal, especially now with the Tech. Shit, I remember how bad I wanted tables and I couldn't afford them for the longest time, I know what you guys are going through. What sucks though is once you start buying vinyl you can't stop...

And guitar center was sweet, I got out with the cartridge and the table for 450, and the cartridge was $70 or so new but they had a sale on that too...I wanted Ortofon Nightclubs but fuck, I couldn't justify $150 on one needle for my shitty speakers...at gc I'm like a kid in a candy store, screwing around with the pioneer cddj1000s and five channel mixers...fuck, I want money!

Definitely, let me know if you guys are ever down here or need a dj or something, you guys could hop on the decks too-it's good times.

Seriously!!!!!!

My life would be soooooooooooo much easier if I had money, but noooooooohhhhhhhhhoooohoooooooonooooooo!

BTW about how many vinyls you got now?

It's getting close to 200. I didn't buy much last summer, only since last fall did I really start buying a ton. I guess that's where most of my paychecks go.

I was about to buy Shokks new tune today, but I need to make sure my car payment clears Tuesday. If Juno still has it then then I'm fedexing it's ass over here.

I'll show the whole lot a ya. A friend told me REALLY crappy basics, didn't even show me pitch control, didn't even TELL me about pitching the records, so I sucked for a loooooooong time. And I've heard him play since then, needless to say he sucks at spinning. So I taught myself, and it took alot of practice to get where I am now. It's really just picking up the basics and then practice, and I bet if someone told me the real basics of spinning I'm sure I would've learned quicker.
