    Default Custom slipmats + other vinyl questions

    Has anyone on here had any experience (especially UK people) with buying custom slipmats? if so where did you go, google shows up two websites but neither look that impressive.

    secondly, stickers on records, for beatjuggling etc, do you use a certian type of sticker? wont the sticker stop the sound? (using timecodes)

    Did you try Promats? I hear they do great work. http://www.promat-quality.com/

    Also, for timecoded records I just use some garage sale price stickers on the label and the edge of the record. I don't put stikers on the actual record because yes, it would interfere with the timecode. On actual records for beat juggling, a cue point stick would not allow you to play the sounds before the sticker which is why on real records, I made cue point stickers very small.

    Had mine made in the UK by Slikmats.
    While the logo is simple the gradient on it looks very good so I can recommend them.

    Here are two pictures:

    Thank you. Got the vestax-table on a flea market but I'd prefer having a better one which can fit the CDJs next to the TTs. The upper level is too high to constantly rock them. Its better suited for midi-controllers.

    I'll see whether I can get
