Deft Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Could be a Technics EPC-U1200? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Symatic Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 It totally is that. I wonder if theyre good or if its just what was to hand at the time? I been wondering what alternatives we have to ortofon or shure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deft Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Dunno, probably big in Japan or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rasteri Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I been wondering what alternatives we have to ortofon or shure I have a pair of these I take to gigs as spares : http://www.numark.com/product/cc1 They sound like shit but traktor doesn't care about that, and they track reasonably well.

Jon Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 There's a pioneer cartridge out there that I've used a handful of times while doing demos at trade shows, not enough to give a full review but they seem really stable. EDIT: just looked online and it says they're only available in the USA and Japan: http://www.pioneerdj.com/en/product/accessories/pc-x10/black/overview/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djdiggla Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 ^^They look interesting. Wonder what the price is--nobody seems to carry them in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELGEE Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'm sure that's a vestax cartridge, I remember I had a vestax brocher with these in it and some other ones, around the same time as that turntable guitar thing came out, 2001 maybe? I'm probably wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deft Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I should have said:It is a Technics EPC-U1200 The Vestax cart is a slightly different shape and has a Vestax logo on the body itself.The "DJ" bit on this is the giveaway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingray Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 IIRC Shortkut uses these, or really likes them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Symatic Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 yeah it's deffo the technics cart. i googlized what deft said and thats what you get. aparrently theyre not amazing and theyre not really available either so as an alternative to shure or ortofon theyre not a great option.
