Turntables Archives

I'm wondering how I can connect an iPod to a DJ mixer. would I just use an 1/8 inch to RCA cord or is there some other way? I'm just looking to get the best quality

I believe Rakaa is the first dude rapping
The lyrics are exactly like this

"I work the angle sharp and percise, dilated peoples so you better build twice"
the lyrics I put up is actually the chorus
I think it is not Rakaa

I have an old zenith genuine stylus stereo, and the turntable is not working. It will turn somewhat, but it is very slow. I don't know if it's a motor in there that's going out or a belt. Is there anywhere where I could find a replacement turntable or replacement parts for this one?

I see a lot of amatuer dj carry around loads of cds with them in order to dj. but i've also seen many using just a computer what i want to know is exactly what type equipment and software(s) is needed to do that.
how can you use a hardware dj mixer alongside getting music of your computer rather than carrying cds? how can i crossfade with a computer?

I was spinnin Hard trance the other day, and decided to back spin in some Drum N Bass (Tech Step).. but on Technic 1210 MKIIs, Its kinda hard, being that I dont have a 'reverse'.

I have a behringer DX 626 mixer,a powered computer speakers(TATOO320e) and a desktop.Can i hook it up? Please tell me how?

I just bought a phonograph/turntable, is there a website or store that has a good selection of old vinyls or records?

If someone is doing cuts to a song (hip hop) what does it mean.

Can I make my computer into a DJ mixer as in sending one audio signal to some headphones and another one to the speakers, so that I can use with a virtual DJ software such as Traktor? If you know of a certain software or hardware other than a mixer (let's say a soundboard) that could help me feel free to post!

A 35-cm-diameter phonograph record is dropped onto a turntable being driven at 33 1/3.

If the coefficient of friction between the record and turntable is 0.20, how far will the turntable rotate between the time when the record first contacts it and when the record is rotating at the full 33 1/3 Assume that the record is a homogeneous disk. (do an integral to calculate the torque.)

im looking for a dj mixer that can mix songs, remix and all those kind of stuff, is there a popular and good one that i can download for free?

thanks.

I have a phonograph that has been giving me trouble lately. Right now the turntable is working fine, but it's the arm that is not setting the needle down on the record. Normally, I just push start and it will move the arm over and set the needle down at the first track. Now it moves over but not down. Any ideas on what's wrong with it?

i've been really into turntablism for a while, i love kid koala and qbert especially, and i want to get into doing it myself. whats a good (fairly cheap?) turntable set to get? where do i get them? what are some good records to start with? any advice? thanks :D

I'm trying to get my first dj mixer and this is both cheap and nice looking. it seems perfect too because I don't need to buy cd decks and all i need to know if it is compatible with the new ipods. also if you think i'm making a mistake by buying this mixer, please tell me!

Importing mackie dj mixer cases with cheap prices from China? where to find a good supplier?

Does anyone still like to hear the scratching, beat juggling that was so hot 97-01? Yungins, do you know who Q-Bert or Rob Swift are?

I have removed the bottom of the phonograph twice. I can see a bit of the belt but can't get in there to change it, so I figure I must actually access it from above, not below. But how? I can't get the turntable off and don't want to break anything. Thank you!
I pulled and pulled on the turntable but couldn't get it to come off. I didn't see any screw in the middle at the spindle or anything. I even tried to pry it off with a screwdriver---no luck. How the heck do I get to this thing? Yikes!

I need to know what kind of DJ mixer i need to buy. I want to play music directly from my laptop, but i want to have that option to play CD's also.

I am going to be using Virtual DJ and/or Atomix MP3.

If you have suggestions on Laptop software let me know also. But i really need to know what kind of DJ Mixer i would need to buy.

I have a NUMARK DXM06 dj mixer and it has 2 1/4" jacks for master volume as well as regular RCA cables. Can i plug powered speakers straight into the 1/4" jacks on the mixer without needing an amp???

I would like to play alot of my old records again, I heard the sound of vinal again and now I want it. What is my best route. Do they still sell them new? Should I buy used? What brand? I dont want to spend alot but I would like to put together a system with a CD player also, something I can add to but for now just a record player. Thanks

I have have been listening to some turntablism lately, artists like sweatshop union, I would like to discover some more turntablism any artists?

I recently bought an external soundcard (M-Audio Audiophile USB) to record live mixes from my DJ mixer.
The manual to this soundcard is terrible and doesn't explain how I can connect it to my DJ mixer (Pioneer DJM800)
I wanna know what cables go where.

Thanks for your help!
