Coloured timecode vinly (traktor)
Thinking of getting either the white timecode vinyl or maybe even the crazy glow in the dark green vinyl, just wanted to know if anyone has it and if they have had any problems with any of them? or they just as good as the original ones ??
I got some white ones that give me no problem.
Also it might be handy having multiple control vinyls since they wear out in about 4 to 6 months.
Moar colors & less wear n tear seems like win-win to me 
I have the green ones and they are SICK. They glow really bright. Mine work great.
Every timecode vinyl SHOULD be the same. Its the same vinyl plastic just with colors and UV snaz.
I have the orange Fluorescent vinyl and it works great. Not warped at all. I think I got the last pair from Amazon sold my a major distributor. swag.
I have a pair of each available colour… none gave me any problem. All good… but the so called Fluorescent “blue” one aren’t blue at all… a total fail.
Got the fluoro blue ones and they don’t really glow (or do they only work under blacklight?)
Aside from that they (and the white ones I’ve had) are fine ..
aren’t different colours different thicknesses depending on intended use?
The white are heavier that any of the others I’ve got - not sure if they’re designed that way for specific use, or they’re just that way because …
i think thickier/heavier ones are more biased towards straight mixing and thinner/lighter ones are more scratching… can’t remember the reason behind that difference right now though…
It’s harder to move a heavier vinyl.
thankyou mr state the obvious 
lol
that bit is self explanatory, i meant not sure if there was a deeper reason behind it, pre dvs days
Exactly what I said.
Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.
looks like i got my comeuppance :eek:
It’s just down to the fact that when scratching you want to be able to move the record with the least amount of pressure possible while when mixing you want to be able to make tiny adjustments and reducing the chance of pushing it too far as a result of the free beer the bar is supplying you with
bit that always threw me was, when i used to buy vinyl; tracks would come on different thicknesses to each other. i didn’t scratch so wasn’t a biggy, but just never figured out why some came on an easier to scratch plate, when it was house…
saying that, thicker vinyl, deeper grooves, better sound…
Yeah ‘audiophile’ records are always a heavier weight.
but guessing that brings no real benefit to dvs?
it might give a little benefit because it’s still playing a sound, but I can’t imagine it being very noticeable.
Do thicker records wear slower?
depending how deep the grooves are… but for sure less prone to get “wavy”
Never get any 78RPM in your hand? Damn heavier
