I recently bought a Numark 1975, but I don't know how to set the sampler, can some one here explain the procedure, thanks in advance.

The sampler works for single stuttering or looping. The 1975 also has an 8 second memory bank which can be divided in one, two, three, and four banks.

First set the effects knob to write (record). Select the bank you wish to put the sample in. Then press the write button to begin recording the sample you want then press it again to end the recording. You can record up to 8 seconds for a single sample or 4 seconds for two samples or 2 seconds for four samples. After recording, select the button to single or repeat (loop). Then switch the knob to memory bank. Start pressing the stutter button. You can also adjust the pitch knob while stuttering which will make a nice effect. Enjoy!

The 1775A, 1975 and 2175 were the ultimate mixers in the 90s. The were the leading mixers back then before Pioneer took over. Numark was sold to Soundcraftsman (MTX), then to a Taiwan based company. NUmark lost its quality after PPD (Professional Products Division - USA).

Behringer DJX-400, my first mixer bought in 2005. Still installed in a small venue.



My 2nd mixer, the Formula Sound PM-90, bought used in 2007 if I remember correctly. Attached to a DIY DJ console.



My 3rd and current mixer, the Mackie D.4. I use it for gigs with timecodes and CDJs.

My first to my last mixer:

Gemini 626 (Pile of crap but it was my first mixer.)


Pioneer DJM600 (Advised on DJF1 not to buy this mixer, thought i'll do what I want. Decent mixer but dated when I finally bought it.)


Technics SH-DJ1200 (Thought if those guys on DMC use it I can.)


Rane TTM57 (Cracking mixer and I still miss it, but times changed and it needed to go for a few reasons)


Kontrol Z2 (Current Mixer and one my best buys I think.)


Dennon DN-x120 (Not a great mixer but bought it for £50 as a spare.)



Getting better at buying mixers, you have to make some bad decisions in order to learn to make the right ones.

Hands up who didn't learn how to mix with faders with the knobs missing. That feeling of playing with a thin metal stick... and when you do a quick fade you nick your finger with it.

I seem to remember when I bought my 1210's, which was about 1995, the guy chucked in this big black mixer with half the knobs missing, and no markings whatsoever on it, I assume they'd all rubbed off. So I can't post a picture of it because I never knew what it was. I had a laugh with it though until I got one of those silver Vestax two channel things which everyone had. Which was shiny.

Had the rack mount version of this CV, it got extremely warm for a mixer. Took it to clubs and hooked it up to their RCA's because it was a lot better than their Bozaks in my opinion. Played a lot of Delicious Vinyl promo 12ers", Motown white label promos and other records. There were no downloads, beat sync. If you were a dj you had the white label promos man and you brought two copies to mix the instru side back to another song

My Numark MMX-1000 phono preamp is perfectly bass heavy. But it needs a little work to get it back to club-ready.
