Hmmm, well what do you guys think about :
as a starting setup for me and my intent to make trance? This is off ebay btw, so I'm not sure if I'll be the winning bidder (the price also might get too high, I'm not sure).
First off, what is the current bid?
and this mixer? is not worth it..
No Eq's for each channel, you could get a 2 channel mixer with much
better eq's for about the same price as this one goes brand new.
I checked out ebay, search for "2 technics mk2" or "2 technics m3d" they come up with some good buys. Be sure to read everything in the auction, ebay is full of scammers .

I see, the current bid is $580.00, and the auction ends in 16 hours (there's also a $125.00 shipping fee).

from the description u guys have given it is none of that...
well... ALL of that... but just extremely shit...
i can'have no EQ... only bass boost... i have to use the friggin CrossFader and pitch control.
I don't even think it has a cue button..... I just have to use the cross-fader. It looks more complex than it really is... but the speakers it came with was OK...
do u guys think i should return it.. .or keep it ($200 AUS... or $100USD... yes that's TWO zeroes)....

try VB code instead of html

but without the spaces in the tags.
edit: ah u got it
that is one ugly bitch it seems to be missing cue selection, eq's and proper gain control
bin it.

Even if you went out and spent 2000 on some new equipment, it isn't gonna make things that much easier. Just try to start with pitch bending with the pitch controls.
OK...
so is wat i have (pictures shown) good enough or not... if the pics don't come up, going back and then forward in IE seems to work for me....
Also...
do i need 2 CDjs to be able to Dj at say a party/Club do I?
that's all i really care about... i wanna be able to change the shithouse brissi trance scene....
i mean, pitch bending, when u dont' even have headphones is bloody impossible to line up beats with... it takes like a minute, and lkasts like 10seconds before they pop out of line again....

I hope you did not pay a resonable amount of cash for that...Pretty much 2 cd players, can you take a picture of the outputs it has? maybe it has RCA outs for a mixer...

ummm.. if gain control=pitch control... then it has those...
actually... what i do when I'm mixing between tracks is that as i start to move the crossfader towards halfway, then i drop the bass down to an absolute 0 (there is no separate bass control for each cannel). Then, once I'm past halfway on the crossfader, I pop it back up to full as i get towards the end of the fader. It works if i do that within like 2 seconds. Any more time and the ears have enough time to adjust to the change in the loudness of the bass and pick up the fucked up beat line up.
