JHouse Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I'm still happy with my Traktor Z2, which you can find used on eBay for about $400. Really prefer scratching with Traktor over Serato, specifically for the overall sound. All in all, it's a good mixer for scratching and DVS capabilities at a reasonable price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deft Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Yo numnuts I have some limited edition gold Pioneer PLX-1000N turntables and a matching limited edition gold DJM-S9 mixer. Never used. Cost me £2656. Yours for £2650. Lemme know. The only issue with that Vestax is that it has no inbuilt soundcard, so you'd still need a compatible audio interface. I know nothing about these gadgets nowadays, or Traktor. If you could snag a Z2 on the cheap it'd be OK. I think if you wanted a new Serato compatible all-in-one mixer thing the cheapest you can get is a Numark Scratch (https://www.juno.co.uk/products/numark-scratch-2-channel-dj-mixer-black/735865-01/) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBearOne8III Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 shoot for the used traktor z2. the only issue i had with the z2 was there was no built in effects. you had to use software effects. but its still a dope mixer. the inno mini fader is nice. i swapped mines for an inno pro 2 which has a heavier feel. i recently got a rane 72. it does some nice stuff, but it is overkill. and i like traktor better than serato. you can get whatever you want if you got the money to spend. but i cannot recommend the high price serato mixers if all you wanna do is get back into cutting and dabble in dvs. I say shoot for the z2 if you want stuff like cue buttons and loop buttons. if your cool with hitting a cue point on your keyboard then stick with your old school mixers and get an interface box for whichever dvs you wanna mess with. most of them are compatible with any interface now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHouse Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Yeah, I like Traktor better than Serato too, namely the overall sound and and feel when skratching. Serato still sounds like digital cuts. Qbert even preferred Traktor over Serato for the same reasons. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djnumnuts Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 So I still went old school and bought a hak 360, should be on its way this week. £250 with postage, from the pics it looks mint, but we shall see. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHouse Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Always wanted one of those. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djnumnuts Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 Yeah, it's the closest to the 07 but doesn't have the issues the 07 has with faders failing and stems snapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHouse Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 As of last Friday night, I got back on the cut. Was having some static issues before, but they seem to be resolved...until I had another sesh the following night. Still had a good time though. Really miss skratching on the regular. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
