hey everybody i'm posting this for a friend who hasn't got his account activated yet so here it is


hi everyone,
im going to be getting into mixing soon and want to find a good mixer to use. I will be using a dual cd player. My question(s) are that i need to find a good mixer. I will soon be buying a sequencer (emu xl-7) and need (i think) more than 2 channels so than i can add this piece of equipment into the mix. Does this mean i need at least a 3 channel mixer? Or can i use a 2 channel mixer? One more question, what is the pfl function in this mixer? http://www.djmart.com/bepromidj.html And finnally, why does this mixer have six inputs with different names (auxillary, line, etc.) if its only 2 channels?http://www.new-line.nl/webshop/view.asp?i=475 Thanks in advance for your help and understanding.

p.s. he wants to buy a Gemini PMX1100 so yeah, opinions on that

p.p.s. "if i win the lottery im not spending more than a 100 on a mixer"

plz flame him for spending $700 on a dual cd player, and $500 on some sampler, and refusing to NOT SKIMP on the central part of the system, the mixer



I was too tired to flame him so i just let it go.

p.p.p.s. he's getting the boss sp505 for sampling...i still don't fully understand what he's trying to do, maybe he'll clarify when his account gets activated.

edit: got a reply from him, he wants to add drum beats and clips from other songs and stuff to the mix in real time with the sampler.

p.p.p.p.s. purple monkey dishwasher


sorry; bored.

im actually liking the behringer dx626 pro, 3 channels and its a great mixer.

if u need just 3 channels then i think u should get the vestax pcv175 or 275. i have the pcv175, and its really good. but newayz i dont know which mixers are good or bad, so i cant help u there. the pfl fuction lets u listen through ur headphones for the channel u want to cue or listen or wutever. it just lets u listen through ur headphones. well if that mixer has 6 different lines, that means that u can play 3 channels at a time. each channel has 2 different inputs. for example, if u have a 3 channel mixer, each one of those 3 channels will have 2 inputs and u select one input at a time. hope that helps. btw im a begginer too, so maybe i could be wrong, but if you dont understand id suggest u read the manuals. thats how i learned to beatmatch with my cd decks. but newayz have fun, later.

stay away from anything gemini there not bad for usability but the parts break easy and they just dont feel quality to use at all not to me anyway

I think you better stay away from ADJ...
Dont go for the ADJ Q-2221/SX... You'll regret it if you buy this one.
For 40€'s more, you have a behringer VMX300
