Quick question about a Vestax mixer
View this Thread in Original format

So I have this gig tomorrow but they only have the Vestax PMC-05ProIII VCA mixer, which I know is . However I wanna know what cueing capabilities this thing has. Anyone know?

To be a little more helpful, this is the "thing" I'm spinning on (it's a college party and the good mixer, the Pioneer, can't leave the radio station): http://namm.harmony-central.com/WNA...05ProIII-lg.jpg

From what it looks like, if I switch the knob to "cue" where it says "Monitor" and use the C.F. Monitor thing (that goes from PGM1 to PGM2) i can crossfade the cue from one track to another and have both in my headphones at the same time. I just wanted to be sure this is right, since it is SO much easier with a Pioneer mixer and just hitting "cue" :P

Its a fine mixer. A battle mixer.. but still a decent mixer.. there are a LOT worse...

I believe thhe "monitor" section of the mixer refers to the cueing options.. and you use the crossfader right there between pgm 1 and 2 to fade it a bit.. in my opinion a really nice cueing function.
