there is no better..
its just that the M3D dosen't have the quartz lock @ 0, and the MKII does.. some people say the M3D feels weird cause it dosen't have it, but its up 2 you |

| M3D there is no lock at 0? that would be great, I hate trying to beatmatch around 0, cause there's always a slight jump when u hit 0. |

| There is no price difference between MK2 and MK3. I can get them both for $389.99 new. I personal have the MK3s because it's just a newer model. There is also the MK5G, but that's way too expensive. |

Im not talking about individual Techs, Im talking about pairs of Techs, and either way, I found pairs that are cheaper than $389.99 anyway :haha: :haha: :haha: |

Hi, Well.. ill try to explain....
in the MK2 When u are moving the Pitch Slider, you have the limits +8 and -8... so.. u can move the slider between this 2 Limits, in the Middle of them... there is the 0 Value. so.. u are in the 0 Value now, and when u want to move in the direction of +8 or -8 u will find i little CLICK when u are removing from 0. that could make a little darstic change in the speed and is not helpful when Djing. in The M3D the click is removed, and u just slide between all the slider very soft, no clicks.... I have Mk2, and I must admit that the CLick at 0 could be a little buggie, however, u can oped the pitch of the mk2, remove a little ball on it, and the click goes, i never have do it, but it can be done. I think will be better M3D.
But then.. if u wanna Mix somewhere that has MK2 and u find with this little click, it can be Problematic... I can live with the click, and i know how to mix with it.
Hope that helps. |
