Large Touch-Sensitive Platter Controllers?
Large Touch-Sensitive Platter Controllers? Posted on: 04.02.2010 by Luna Coupal I'd like a large, high-resolution platter, similar to the EKS OTUS.. but Stanton SCS.1D and Numark NS7 are fine too. I don't care if it's motorized or not, but I do care that it is reasonably priced. In other words, I don't want to spend over $1000 for two MIDI I/O decks!That's ridiculous! We're not paying for the technology of MIDI I/O. We pay for the ergonomics, physical design, and the low-demand of the products. Electrically, it's not all that complicated in comparison to what you can buy for the same price at Best Buy... i.e. a computer, HDTV, analog stereo system, etc. Does anyone know where I can get a large, touch-sensitive MIDI I/O platter to add onto my current setup? I don't personally care for time-coded vinyl's setup processes. | |

| Roselle Mcnaul 09.02.2010 | Or center the counter balance weight on the back of the tonearm to 0g to float the arm, and apply 2.5g of tracking force. Also make sure that if head shell mounted cartridges are being used, that a proper amount of slant is applied to the mounting angle so the stylus catches the groove at an adequate approach. |

| Hanna Zitzmann 04.02.2010 | Honestly, if you want a jogwheel that large, you should just use vinyl and traktor scratch pro. There isnt much reason for one that large unless you are planning on scratching, anyways. |

| Luna Coupal 04.02.2010 | The EKS Raw is ideal to me, but at $800.. I might as well get a Numark V7 or NS7 (since I want two platters) and map them to Traktor. $500 is much closer to what I'm believeing. |

| Roselle Mcnaul 05.02.2010 | I've been talking to EKS about the Raw, that thing is a goddamn mythological creature. One minute they showcase it, the next they say its a prototype. Then they say it will be released in January, now they're saying Spring. Price point I was told will be $799. |
| Shelby Blancaflor 04.02.2010 | I thought the otus raw was due to come out and around 500$, correct me if I am wrong |
| Luna Coupal 04.02.2010 | Yeah, it's pretty disappointing. My best bet is probably finding one used or on clearance... until the market starts getting better. |
| juan garcia 04.02.2010 | xp-10 is touch sensitive fyi but unfortunately at this point you really don't have many options for a jogwheel in that size... |
| Luna Coupal 04.02.2010 | Sorry for my poor specification. I'd like a jog wheel with a size between 7" and 12" in diameter. The XP-10 is too small, and I'd also like it to be touch-sensitive. |
| juan garcia 04.02.2010 | how large is large? is the platter on the eks xp-10 too small? |
