Dicers/serato Posted on: 12.01.2011 by Patrick Claney hello there...i use the dicers with techs 1210,s and serato... the problem im having is when i hit the buttons on the dicer the needles are picking up the vibration as i am effectively hitting the deck.... i can get rid of this buy setting the threshold of serato to -24 but then scratching and playing in reverse are affected.... i am using orfton pro s needles..... are the any types of needle that are better at not picking up the vibration? or anything i can do to help this thanks david | |

| Hipolito Scionti 13.01.2011 | Does it happen in Rel mode too? |
| Wynell Henzel 13.01.2011 | Maybe try calibrating the deck while hitting your Dicers, maybe that will help. I have the exact same setup and I don't have that problem. Even with my monitors blasting loudly next to my tables I can scratch (badly) and hit the cue points, loops, etc. on my Dicers with no problems. |
| Brunilda Kora 13.01.2011 | If the needle is skipping YOU'RE HITTING IT TOO HARD!!! I've got Dicers here, fixed to 2x1200's with DJ Putty. Like I've said before, I can bash 'em pretty hard without any skipping. If you're not using DJ Putty, try removing the 45 adaptor locator from the Dicers (using a screw driver), and fixing 'em to your TT with DJ Putty. Might make a (small) difference. |

| Patrick Claney 13.01.2011 | when you are assigning cue points and are playing in beat you have to hit the pads quite hard to keep rhythm.... |
| Dj LsEx 13.01.2011 | Soft hands... a la Mighty Ducks. |
| Brunilda Kora 13.01.2011 | Spending money ain't the answer. Just learn to bash a little softer! |
| Manda Hannegan 14.01.2011 | You might want to check into getting a pair of Freefloats. They are an inflatable shock absorber you put under your turntables. I've used these in several different scenarios and I've found they work really well even under some pretty extreme conditions. |
| Melinda Shick 14.01.2011 | Do they absolutely have to be sitting on your deck? I'd just move them to beneath the mixer or something. |
| Brunilda Kora 14.01.2011 | You're bashing them too hard. I'm using Dicers with no problem (besides mapping ) whatsoever... You can get away with hitting them quite hard without transferring the vibration to the needle. I can't imagine how hard you must be bashing them! |
| Patrick Claney 13.01.2011 | they are just sitting on a normal office table.....its quite sturdy ive tried the weight at various postions...heavy or light it still picks up the vibrations...... |
| Adolf Hit 12.01.2011 | This should not be a problem with 1210's. What sort of bench are they sitting on? Have you check you tone arm balance etc? |
| Candace Carmouche 12.01.2011 | thats a great question. hopefully ean will get a chance to chime in as im pretty sure he designed them for novation. |
