Hello everyone! I had to google it, the first equip that I could afford was a Reloop RMX 2 mixer and a Reloop belt drive turntable (rp1000 I guess… 18 years ago aprox). Fortunately I switched them for Vestax PDX 2000 and a Rane TTM 56. I still have the Vestax turntables, well, at least one of the firsts I bought, I got stolen one of the pair’s long way ago after a gig. :man_shrugging:

Hi Tono! Welcome to the slipmat community. I’ve had once Vestax PDX 2300 (the black ones) and after I got used to the higher torque I really enjoyed spinning with them. Ultrapitch is a feature you can get very creative with (although I am not a turntablist). Very looking forward to see / hear you djing here! Cheers, Sabotage

Cool! Thank you very much @Alois , I’m pretty agree with you, I got one of those, with a Midi Note fader attached and as you said, it’s very creative and fun, I’m far away to be a pro, but I really enjoy the movement.
While I earn the trust of a mentor to do live shows here,take a look if you want :pray: :v:
