I dj w/:
2-CDJ-700s
1-DJM-500
1-1200M3D
1-TT1
Wouldn't want to have it any other way:
seamless loops of any length (w/live endpoint manipulation), ±16%
pitch, with or without tone lock;
loads of cool effects on the mixer (sure I wish I had a 600 or,
what're they up to, 700-- not as bad as computer chipspeed, though!);
78rpm & auto-reverse capability on the (otherwise inferior) TT-1;
Can switch-hit as need be between vinyl & discs
