| 02.11.2012 Tonearm Question (Picture Inside) | 6 | 04.11.2012 |
| So I'm still kind of a turntable noob, but I'm slowly learning... I picked up a couple of second hand Technics 1210 mk2s, and I noticed that the tonearms on them are slightly different. The picture I have enclosed is on the one that looks like it is not stock. The problem is that it results in me… | ||

| Hey DJTT, been a while, hope you've been doing well. I'm needing some help setting up my DN-X1600 mixer to enable to me record my vinyl and my mixes.

| hey guys, I was wondering I am required to use a audio interface if I want to hook up my cdj-900s to traktor while using an external mixer? I am capable of hooking up both cdj-900s to control the decks, but I am unable to get each deck to output to a different channel on my xone 42. They both seem… | ||

| 04.10.2012 About to buy some DJ headphones | 16 | 31.10.2012 |
| Long story short, I'm getting back into DJ'ing after a decade off. I just got some CDJ's, and I forgot that my Sony 700's broke a few years back.. Done plenty of Google searches: best DJ headphones, best headphones under $xx, etc. I'm literally on the fence - I might spend $70 on some V6's, $100… | ||
| 21.10.2012 Good deal on CDJ1000s? | 13 | 29.10.2012 |
| Hey everyone. I met a guy who wants to sell me 2 CDJ1000s (Mk1) for $100 total. Is this a good deal? The players function normally, except that Vinyl mode doesn't work. It "sticks" which I have heard is a common problem with the players. He's also throwing in road cases which I believe… | ||
| 25.10.2012 Mixer | 6 | 28.10.2012 |
| So I am buying a mixer to use along a reloop contour IE, but I am on a tight budget. I was believeing maybe the numark M6, is the sound quality any good? I was looking at other options, but they did not seem that good (DDM2000, behringer djx900 urgh). It's such a pitty i need 3/4 decks, because i… | ||

| 18.04.2012 Best Software for Transferring Vinyl to MP3 (or better yet FLAC) | 15 | 22.10.2012 |
| What's the best one? What do I need to know etc... I tried using Audacity and didn't get great results. I'm sure it's partially from lack of knowing how to use the software. I thought I'd ask here before taking time to learn more about Audacity to make sure I wasn't wasting time when there… | ||

| Hello, I want to buy cd players, new or used, but no more expensive than 400 euros (518 dollars)(I already have a mixer). More or less this amount of money I have found the used pioneer cdj 100 and 200 and the new Gemini cdj 250, Stanton S250 and S300, NUMARK Ndx 200 and 400 and NUMARK icdmix3.… | ||

| 17.10.2012 M5Gs | 8 | 19.10.2012 |
| So I took the plunge and bought a pair of lightly used M5Gs with money I don't really have. I adore the tonearm on these turntables; I spun on a friend's set a few weeks ago and couldn't stop believeing about it. These are in great shape and have never been popped open. Is it worth opening them up… | ||

| I have an S4 and found a guy on Craigslist selling both of his M3D's (mint condition, sent me a video and a few pictures i requested) with ortofon pro s stylus on them for $800. Pull the trigger or is vinyl more a "niche" kind of thing that won't add to much to my life. Truthfully… | ||

| Returned to DJ'ing after a decade off, and now I see that mixing in key is really popular. I've read up on the scales, but I have a question about the execution: Doesn't pitch adjusting for beat matching throw everything off? For example, I've brought all my music into Rekordbox, I know… | ||

| 02.10.2012 CDJ2000 HID + Traktor 2.5.1 question | 6 | 14.10.2012 |
| So yeah.. I finally decided to try the HID function in Traktor with the CDJ2000's and what bothers me is that when I go to browse on once CDJ, the other (if it's in browse mode as well) duplicates everything. It's really confusing when which CDJ is playing what when I'm quite busy (read:… | ||

| Hey guys, I currently use a pair of 1200 mk3s w/ a DJM-400 and SSL to mix house, dubstep & dnb. I'm very accustomed to the 1200s + SSL + Dicers workflow; I have my entire library set up with cue points in SSL, for use with the dicers (most of the cue points are just at the start of the track).… | ||
| 07.10.2012 Cheap but respectable audio interface? (*into* computer) | 11 | 09.10.2012 |
| Looking to record my DJ sets into Audacity. Work flow: CDJ 900 -> analog Rane mixer -> PC. It seems that all the reviews I'm reading on audio interfaces are for outputting from the computer, so many of the budget gadgets don't even have inputs. That said, I trust RCA to 3.5mm… | ||

| All have the latest firmware update. Traktor is showing "CDJ Aggregator" as the audio source. The CDJ on the left is se to player 1 and the on the right to player 2. Pioneer CDJ Out 2 and 3 is on Deck A, and Out 0 and 1 is on deck b, rather than how it should be (vice… | ||
| 02.10.2012 Which USB stick and what size? (CDJ) | 3 | 08.10.2012 |
| My 900s arrive today. I have a few old USB sticks lying around, but I figure I should get a decent 3.0 for some faster speeds. That said, I'm also not sure what size to buy. I'll mainly be bedroom DJ'ing, so I'm not sure that I need to spend a bunch on something too large. How much do I need? I… | ||
| 01.10.2012 Advice needed: Rane Sixty-Two or Xone DB2 with SL-2 | 5 | 07.10.2012 |
| I'm looking for a new hybrid mixer. I have been running Traktor using vinyl timecode (2 x 1210s) on a Xone 4D and I find the MIDI controller over complicated.

| 04.10.2012 Few quick questions on XLR and RCA output. | 3 | 05.10.2012 |
| Just picked up a 2nd hand xone22 and as the only main output is XLR I was wondering if the monitor output could be used as a master as its RCA (as I don't need if for a monitor). I will mainly be using it for small bars where XLR might not be an option, so would the monitor output be loud enough… | ||
| 05.10.2012 DN-SC2900 Thoughts | 0 | 05.10.2012 |
| Hey fellow CDJ/TT'ers. I recently discovered Denon's SC-2900 CDJ and started looking through some reviews and specs; this CDJ seems like quite an excellent alternative to purchasing a CDJ 900. The Engine software-to-hardware capability sounds amazing and the features seem relatable to the CDJ's for… | ||

| 17.09.2012 Should I make the switch to CDJs? | 12 | 03.10.2012 |
| Hi everyone, First off I'd like to say that for the past 2 years I've been strictly a controllerist DJ. While I feel that I've gotten pretty good with using just a controller, I feel limited by how compact it is. All of the controllers I've used/tried out, even the bigger ones like the DDJ-T1… |
