Hello and thanks for putting together this place.
I've been reading a bit, and I have some general questions. It seems the two routes I am interested in are cdj 850/900 with a mixer because it is solid and I can avoid having to lug around a notebook or having the notebook crash. is a rane ttm56 more suited for 1200s or will it be proper for cdjs? I'm sure it can get the job done I just want to know if I'm over looking something obvious. What are some suggestions for budget scratching mixers for cdjs. what are some budget scratching cdjs? I am in LA if anyone knows of a good cdj repair person let me know please. LA craigslist has a tone of cdjs :) I've thought about getting a pair of cdj200 and a cheap mixer but no vinyl mode and I love hip hop... . i wish the cheaper cdj 100/200 had vinyl mode :(
However I do have one lonely technics sl1200mk2 and I wouldn't mind getting another 1200mk2 and a dj mixer most likely a rane ttm56. But what I DO NOT like about the technics1200mk2 Path is that I would need to get a serrato or traktor interface/hardware crap.
I have a rme fireface800 & I like it. I'd like to just buy some time coded vinyls + software and use the rme fireface 800 hooked up to the dj mixer. Now I'm not entirely sure how the time code technology works so that is why I'm assuming I can just run some software and use my rme ff800. Please let me know whatsup/educate me and if there is truly a purpose for the serrato/traktor interface?
is there a way of using 1200mk2 without a computer but can still access files from usb drives( no $ for vinyl sry)? is there a way of using a 1200 mk2 with the computer and my rme ff800 but without having to buy some traktor/serrator hardware (other then time coded vinyls)?
