Im really getting into using my turntables now, love using the vinyl so much more fun than using cdj's. Anyway now that im using them more and more i have a few questions to ask the dj's out there who know there shizzle when it comes to turn tables..
I was just wondering if its best to have your tone arms set up Low or High? My Vestax PDX-2000 have the anti skate arms so the only other adjustment i have is the height. i think the range is 0-9mm. I've used them since i got them set to where they was which was right at the bottom, i tried them lifted up today and they seemed more less likely to jump if you know what i mean lol, i dont know if that's just in my head tho or not...Also what does everyone set the weight too on the tone arm?
Is there much difference between using the standard headshell with some ortofon pro s stylus or the ortofon concord's ?
Are the MK2 traktor vinyls any better than the ones i have that came with traktor scratch when i bought it? i ask as when i turn the volume right down you can hear the timecode tone thru the needle quite loud, is that right/normal?
Are standard slip mats ok just sometimes i feel its hard work to get the record back to where i want i, some vinyls come back easier than others, is it worth buying new slip mats if all im doing is mixing deep house mostly?
Also i'd like to buy some target lights for my decks but cant find any any where for the Vestax PDX-2000's. The Vestax ones was called the DSL-1 but be buggered if i can locate any...
