I fucking love this guy and his vids. Such a genuine person, doing really great reviews.
Instablaster...
This is a great review. Thanks for recreating the "Feed Back Test" and validating that "Earlier Video" independently. Cheers.
I love your reviews man, you are very specific and honest.
Sorry to correct you about the price of the RP7000, but i bought two white edition one year ago, for 400€ each, brand new.
Love the information...I have a set of RP 800 and the pitch slide numbers wore off / faded at the center, other then that no issues.
I got 2x 7000 6 months ago for under £500. feel so much nicer than my 1200s only issue is pressing the start stop button doesn't give the same break effect but serato gives you an echo break that I assigned to a midi button on my korg nanopad which sounds awesome. unbeatable for the money! stick the nanopad 90 deg on between one deck and your mixer then user one side for left deck and one for the right it feels better than the 8000 and basically become part of your mixer. cheaper too! such a good buy!
Great review, just in time for me :) thank you
The Reloop RP-2000MK3 was my first turntable I bought about 12 years ago.
Looked just about the same as that one, but without the USB port.
Fun little entrylevel turntable that was only 130 euros each back then, worked fine for bedroom DJing.
I'm just looking to get a turntable to use with PhaseDJ and have no desire to scratch - I feel like the Reloop 2000 is great for this use case. Thoughts?
@@bobbyflowstate sure should work just fine.
whooo...finally some review from you on reloop TT's...great... 7000 way to go for me when i get some cash :D
Well if you turn the stylus on 23 degree to the outside on an S tonearm than it is a stable needle to scratch as well on a straight tonearm. I did it it works great. I use the Ortofon OM Pro S Version.
Should have noted that the 7000+8000 don't come with headshells and cartridges (I believe the 2000 does, and my 4000 did). Biggest complaint with my 7000 is that Dicers don't fit properly; I use some bluetac to raise them above the extra start/stop buttons. Additionally unless your a Serato user who loves the BPM counters, 7000s with Dicers is a far better option.
Well... I have a pair of rp2000m (no usb) and I am using them for mixing - long mixes, as it is called nowadays. I am not a club DJ, mixing is my hobbie - just for the soul you know. And imo they are good enough for this purpose, yet the seller in a shop warned me that they are totally NOT. Yes, they have some disadvantages, but they are not bad. The motor is not so powerful so you cant stop vinyl by hand while platter still runs, it stops. Some slight speed 'walking' present. But if you dont scratch, then you are easily able to mix using them. I spent 430eur for a new pair and they fit for me. I would give them a beginner level for dj mixing. I hope this info will helpful for anyone.
Klim Galaktionov Hello！Can I ask you a question? Is rp 2000 suitable for scratch？And do you know which mixer is suitable for the scratch？Then two turntable must be the same brand? I am a rookie! thank you very much!sry for to much question🤣
@@linozhou1049 Yes, they can be used for scratching. But the record will take a moment to get back up to speed once you let go of the platter or record. But for it's price it's probably the best you're going to get.
@@dmitriymikhailovich6170It stops after the backspin, before spinning forward again? If so, that's perfectly normal. If it doesn't allow you to backspin at all, then that's not normal.
@@dmitriymikhailovich6170 Nope, it's perfectly normal. The more torque the turntable has, the quicker it will revert to spinning clockwise again. More advanced turntables allow you to adjust the torque allowing for longer backspins. But the turntable will always revert to spinning clockwise again, unless it has a reverse function.
Hey Chris Iam looking at the reloop 7000. I do agree with yea the STR* 150 are so dope but they are a tank. You will be the last say on this for me getting the reloop. Would it be a good deck for home and use on the road for me and to rip vinyl for production?
question with the 7000. Do we know how durable the pitch is? is it possible to change just as on the technics?
Get the 4000s instead of 2000s, significant improvement, still affordable!
What about the tonearm on the 4000? I've heard it's kind of the same light weighted arm... I've tried 2000s and they tend to jump off very easy on my old (really well and clean) records sometimes... I had a crappy Stanton STR8-20 and though the short straight arm is really a problem, the weight didn't actually meant a problem when it came to skipping issues. What can you tell? Thanks!
hey, quick question on the 8000 - 'cause I think there is a missinformation in the video - isn't the TORQUE knob on the turntable actually the Start-up time knob ?? ... just renamed, but doing actually the same thing
Are cartridges universally sized? For example if i were to buy a more expensive pair, would different brands fit or does it have to be from the selection Reloop have? Thanks
Hey man I looking at turntable been djaying for a while and use to have vinyl tables . I looking to bring them back to my home and was wondering should I get reloop 8000 plx 1000 or the technics 1200 mk2 . There all used and around 500 each what would you go with ?
Just bought these bad boys reloop 7000 waiting for them to come in from UK counting the days down
Can you change the tone arm to straight shaped for more heavy scratching on rp 7000?
I have a broken pair of Numark TTX and a pair of Technic SL1200....
Do I spend the money on getting one of these fixed or do i spend that money on a new pair, and if so what kind? Do Reloop hold up to the beating or a turntablist
you rock.. love you mojaxx.. keep up the good work
Hey Mojaxx, can you please do a side by side comparison of all the top tear DJ turntables on the market in 2024?
Hey! Do anyone recommend the RP-8000 in 2016, if i wan't to have a Turntabe, wich i want to use for normal vinyl record and also for DVS-Controll? The midi-pads on this turntable would be great. And - Do they work also with Traktor? Thanks for some answers ;) ;)
i bought 2 reloops 7000 and both suffered from tonearm issues they were loose/wobbly and even the antiskate did not work correctly. i returned them and theey said it was some production problem, i asked if they had 2 other ones that did not have this problem. But all of there 7000's had the same tonearm issue.
+Dowmatic are you able to unscrew any of the tonearm's pivot screws? my tonearm is a bit loose and I coult not adjust the screws. They are so tight that my screws cracked ..
What about Audio Technica AT LP 1240 Is this turntable at same level ? I am getting a Reloop RP7000 (silver because it looks great) but I am altså thinking about getting one more turntable and I dont want it to be another RP7000 but something just as good at DJing but also looking :-)
Mojaxx can you review the denon vl12 prime?
I want to ask something, but please give me your best honest answer.
which will you Choose? MK2 or Rp8000?
why?
thanks you so much
What happened with RP-8000 straight toneram version? I prefer straight arm but now is hard to find it. Was there any issues with that?
How does the software reckognize which turntable is on the 'left / deck 1' and which is on the 'right / deck 2'.
deejayshmoove the decks are daisy chained
What about the 4000? +DJcityTV
Hi!
I need your help guys!
I currently own a Stanton ST 150 and want to exchange it with another platter, at least as good, but closer to the feeling of Technics. The Stanton has a much stronger torque than the Technics. I usually play on Technics at clubs and the first few minutes are strange because i must to get used to the sensitivity of the Technics.
So, the reloop rp 7000 will fit to my needs ? Thanks in advanced!
Any opinion is welcome :).
I know you asked this nine months ago, but I still want to answer: I own both, a set of 1210 mk5s and a pair of RP7000s, and you can set the Reloops to behave 99% like the Technics - they have a torque and start/brake adjustment above the pitch fader, and I find that setting the torque to just slightly more than the 12 o'clock setting and the start/brake to just above minimum makes the 7000s feel just like a pair of 1200s. Hope that's been helpful 🙂
For someone just looking to get a turntable to use with PhaseDJ and does NOT want to scratch, I feel like the Reloop 2000 is great. Any objections?
like the cue buttons on the turntables
Finally pulled the trigger on a pair of these puppies.
and?
The 4000 is the tits. More torque than a technics so leagues above the 2000 and still very budget friendly.
love my 4000mk2.
Oh man, I wish the 1200s would be around 300~350. These days they're going for double that.
Feedback performance is irrelevant when using a DVS system like Serato or Traktor
(or the forthcoming REKORDBOX DVS from Pioneer) I love the Reloop RP-8000 turntables for there silky smooth pitch fader, hi torque motor, adjustable START & STOP (although it would be better to have 2 separate knobs. 1 or START and 1 for STOP)
And midi control but the ENCODER Reloop use for there scrolling and loading is absolute garbage! And you can't switch off the moving platter without cutting the power to the whole deck (which means losing midi functionality) these are massive floors with the RP-8000. Please address these problems!
My platter is stuck on my 8000! I can’t take the platter off!!! I have pulled really hard to the point to where im afraid of damaging the motor and warping the platter and it still won’t budge. I have also tried the tapping the spindle trick and still didn’t work. Any advice?
Contact the manufacturer?
Grounding cable do they have they ?????
Can't understand how there isn't one decent review on the RP4000. Not one!!
just bought a pair
XRTA DOPE VIDEO MY GUY..explained really detailed. My question is about turntables im getting back to DJing and i like the reloop turntables. So what I need to know is what's the difference between the RELOOP RP-7000 MK2 PROFESSIONAL UPPER TORQUE TURNTABLE SYSTEM and the RELOOP DIRECT DRIVE DJ TURNTABLE AMS-RP 7000 MK2.
i am looking for a turntable to get into scratching i was thinking about 2000 but it doesn't seem exactly what i would ask for.I RANDOMLY got myself across the roland tt99,are they any good?
@@danielv3463 I was thinking to get directly to 7000 for that reason you explained.But it seems like none buys them,or at least those who did ain't selling them,so at the end of the day 8000mk1 are cheaper than 7000 even though i am not using digital vinyl yet the cues on 8000 have some other use from what i know.But then i can search for a while to get at the same price or for a bit more a pair of vestax.The thing is that the mid range 7000 are nowhere to be found and for a little bit extra i can get to high end but when mid entry are pricy already high end are way too many for me to the point i will never gather that much money.I have no idea what i will end up on,Stanton is the best solution from what it seems.
@@danielv3463 I think I will go with the mixars lta which i found at 400 a pair with no headshells.I mean they are seemingly as good as 7000 just a little weird looking and they seem to earn the respect they were looking for,nontheless once i have some money probably i can push them for the same price or even higher than that and go for 8000mk2 or vestax pdx3000.Thanks for your comment by the way.
Anybody have a problem getting the cartridge arm level even? I have height all the way down and there’s still a downward angle. Any harm to this or is this normal on these? Appreciate any help!
No harm, it happens. It happens with the technics 1200s also. Either substitute the cartridge for one that fits the specs or raise the platter using a second pair of slipmats and/or some acrylic.
Peace
It this good buy in 2021?
Sorry to bother, just wanted to know what mixer this was?
Is the rp-2000 really that bad for mixing and djing? I need an advice from someone with experience and someone who owns these. I'm a beginner dj and I'm on a budget (which is ridiculous cuz I still have to spend ~1,5k dollars for 2 turntables and a mixer)
+Edgars Ļebedevs
I habe two of those and learned beatmatching on it. I bought them used and very cheap. I spent 50$ on both of them, one was broken and could be repaired. For learning purposes it is definitly good enough. I learned beat matching with them and it is super awesome, if I come into a club and use technics, because they are way more precise. If you are used to crappy stuff, everything else gets far more easy on technics ;) And you would not hear my transitions to be crap on the rp2000s. But i have to admit, the scratching ability is rather limited, the platter stops really easily. But as I actually only play deep/tech house on vinyl, it does not matter to me.
All in all:
Learning beatmatching is a process where the gear does not help too much. Buy something affordable on a budget, if you do not like it, resell it. If you are lucky, you get the same money back, if you bought used stuff. But learning beatmatching will take you a few weeks of practice, so don´t get frustrated after a few hours ;)
I actually bought a pair of the 2000's for Djing. I have used Technics , Stantons , etc. In my honest opinion , the 2000's perform great. I am running Scratch Live with the pair and the Reloop RMX22i. I am amazed on how great they are. I am using Dj QBert's butter rug slip matts and they scratch pretty well. You will have to learn to be a bit more light handed when Djing with them , due to the fact the motor does lack a bit in power.. BUT great turntables.
Sure, you can learn beatmatching and mixing on these. Two problems though: The wobbly platter will annoy you, because you have to handle these TTs more carefully, and that shows, even when only beatmatching. The other thing is the torque. I haven't used these specific TTs yet, but from my experience, the lower torque needs some time to get used to - and when you got used to it, you will have to adjust every time you use someone else's setup, or even club gear. If you can live with all that, then these are fine.
Edit: I just realized how old this video is. Oh well, someone might still watch it and read the comments.

+Harry Jarvis Hey mate I'm considering buying a RP7000, but I wanna know what's the deal with having 2 start buttons? I was planning on putting a dicer on the corner but won't the button get in the way?
In that revue of that guy he talk about sensibility to the feedback he compare how rumble can aper more easily with pioneer then a hold school 1200. That it.
Sorry I think you don't understand the process and what he want to people understand.
The almost end of an Era!! Needlles. No...!
Or you are a very small guy or the Maschine Mikro in the back look super big
