Portable, Battery Operated DJ Turntables

Monday, October 3rd, 2005

What do you buy the DJ that has everything? How about a pair of portable turntables. The Numark PT01 Turntables are light, battery operated and, at just 12″ x 12″, actually fit inside a record case. Despite this they play 7″ and 12″ records at 33, 45 and 78 rpm (although, who the **** […]

Mixing Developments

Monday, August 29th, 2005

Here’s a collection of interexsting mixers and other hardware I’ve come across recently.

I personally use Etymotic Research’s ER-20 High Fidelity Earplugs. They’re not the most […]

DJ Furniture

Wednesday, April 27th, 2005

Ok, so it’s not really Club Wear but Gizmodo has blogged some excellent DJ furniture recently that’s just too good not to comment on.
Dual has some smooth suspended deck stands/tables they rather morbidly call The Floating Coffin. Hanging by steel cables it saves space and reduces sound feedback. It has 2 rather obvious draw backs […]
