True that, I started out with miss matched Gemini Belt Drive Turntables, oen had a slide for the pitch control and another had a little ass wheel for pitch control. The mixer was also from Gemini. (is Gemini was very big in the ghetto!) It had a leak in one of the four channels. Even after taking it to get fixed the leak would still come back a few days later. FUN TIMES!

LMFAO!
I started on Gemini TTs too. Mine had a normal pitch bar though. They made me a lot of money though. I only had them for like a year till I upgraded to my 1200s.

Jeeezzzzz........I started out with TT's that didn't even have pitch control! Only could mix records with the same BPM's! :rotf:

DAYUM! i remember those Gemini's with the Pitch wheel instead of the slider. Those were the days.

It's just a more descent way to say "you were scratching your ass with your finger". It's in reverse.

How do you like your monitors? would it be worth it to spend a bit more money and get the bigger ones?

Ok here is my set up. I have two KRK Rocket 5 monitors, 2 Numark ttx tables, 1 Boss 303 Sampler, 1 - Numark CDN-90 CDJ, 1 - Denon -DND X-500 Mixer and 1 - Denon 6000 CDJ and SSL.

Personal taste run into this greatly. For the room, the bigger the better, for my booth, too loud is distracting. Dig my ditch?

 

[shadowman]

X, there are a lot of vinyl emulation programs out there. Virtual Vinyl, Serato, Traktor, and Torq just to name a few. They all have strong points and week points. SSL is the most widely recognized here in the states. But in Europe VirtualDJ and using a Maya, or Audio8, is more recognized.

Play around with as many of them as you can and see which one suits your needs best. I don't do the time code route....I love my controllers. Small, and easy to move. Yet I can still get the sound I want out of them.....

I tried all of them, and they all have their strong and weak points, but I ended up getting VIrtual DJ (which I use at home and for most my show), and planning to get a controller for it, and eventually a laptop to just run that
