YEK Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 So I have decided that i need a scratch turntable as their needles don't well, scratch records up so badly with repeated use. I can't though, just buy a scratch needle as my record player would not accept it>>> So that means, I'm looking at the cheapest options: direct drive, whatever else. i will not use this record player for mixing in the future either as mixing with records doesn't really appeal to me How about this one? : http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Sta...able?sku=804015 the cheaper the better, but not something that will break on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YEK Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 go for a Stanton belt drive. quality. stay away from Gemini at all costs. ok, that one i linked would be great then i guess take a look at that link for me, can it take any needle? looking around musicians firend it appears that dj needles come in all shapes and sizes. will they all fit a turntable?

pylonbitch Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 don't get a belt for scratching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YEK Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 just sampling logan, but yeah, i suppose if i scratched with it, which i would do rarely, it might wear out the belt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pylonbitch Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 all sorts of difficulties... you probably won't wear out the belt, but you probably will fuck your drive motor, and your bearings.(despite the fact that theree are several belt drive 'dj turntables on the market) but if you're not planning on spinning anything backwards then yeah, that deck'll do fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SamWhite! Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 This is kind of off topic, but my mom broke the counterbalance on one of my numarks a month ago, I'm still pissed as hell over that. I've been too busy/lazy to try to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
