You gonna be so hooked! I got my PT01 a little over a year ago and I’ve been slowly modding it since. 1: Put in the Jessie Dean tonarm 2: installed a Start/stop button 3: changed out to lithium battery with battery housing. 4: Changed the platter to the more stable aluminum version 5: Did the belt tighten mod using the band I am more than happy with these mods. I choose to do an ortofon housing because I still had about 4 needles left over from my Tech 12’s. I also opted not to change out the factory “fader” because I like the “switch” feel. And besides, I could always add an external portable fader or portable mixer with a real fader. Or just a mixer with a fader. I was going to put a strobe light on just for the look of it but I noticed that it would interfere with me playing 10” and 12” records.(I’ve discovered that playing 12” is difficult with my start/stop button being slightly raised and in the way). Then I thought to myself, am I really going to play anything other than 7” on this unit? No not really. But the strobe light is rather unnecessary. I think the last mod that I would consider is the Bluetooth board. I would even do the ultra pitch before that. Anyway, I’m looking forward to integrating my PT01 with the new Phase that’s coming out so that we can all go to that next level shit!!!! Peace
DJ TLM TV All it is, is one of those rubber wrist bands that you get for free as a promo or like for a cause, wrapped around the base of the platter and then re-install the belt as you normally would when you are replacing it. I’m more than sure you have a dozen of those bands lying around somewhere. 👍🏼
Great video as always! I bought this last year. Watched loads of videos on it and decided to take the plunge into modifications. I installed the Jesse Dean Fader which is amazing!!! The cuts feel much sharper. This is perfect for me to practice on and learn various scratches. I love the fact that it's portable to! Looking forward to seeing your modifications as well for inspiration. Be blessed and keep scratching. 🎶
Do you have to have an iphone to play beats or can you use android or youtube. Will it play anything that connects through aux or you have to use an app?
@@nxvx5361 any aux input will do the job. Its really a great product. I highly recommend it on sheer fun alone. I just set it up to the aux cord in my car last night and was scratching the road. Totally something I never could do with a Turntable / Mixer / Speaker / etc
TLM? 😮 Wow! Broeder! Lang niet gezien.. Je zal mij vast niet meer kennen, ik ben Marino uit Zeeland. Heb jou leren kennen via Gert Jan Braintje in (volgens mij Wassenaar of op een talenten jacht ergens anders, maar in mijn herinnering was het Wassenaar) Wij hebben nog samen staan scratchen net de laatste 10min van mijn set net voordat jullie begonnen. Was echt DIK! Jij deed de beat en ik de cuts enzo. Jij zal het vast niet meer weten aar voor mij is het een mooie memory. ❤
Have one of these. I did the following mods to it: 1. Jesse Dean magnetic fader, the second version, that let's you adjust the cut-in with just a little screwdriver without taking the unit apart. Cuts are clean and sharp. 2. Jesse Dean carbon fiber tonearm and mounted a Shure M 44-7. Works great. Really stable and reliable. 3. Jesse Dean digital start/stop button. 4. Solidcutz aluminium platter. Stable and definitely (a lot) better than the stock platter. For batteries, there are a few options. I decided to go with a USB cable to be able to connect it to a powerbank. Works perfect! Of course, there's a lot more options to mod out on the PT01, but I think the four I did are essential to elevate the portable scratch experience to a much higher level. Great video by the way! I'm curious, what you decide to go with. Peace!
Welcome to the portableism crew! I was kind of lucky to be able to get an affordable vestax! - but im too scared to mod that one, so am looking forward to getting a pt-01 too, hopefully i can follow along with you on the mods, and have full on portable mix sessions!
Its going on a year since i bought mine. love the fact that i can take it on the go and bust it out when ever i have a itch to scratch. I have kept mine stock up until now thinking of changing a few things. Can't wait to see what mods you do.
Well my upgrade was new crossfader jesse dean, start stop button bihari, jesse dean tonearm and preamp for phono, shure m44/7 needle, stalibiser ring under the platter, rubber band under the platter for better torque plus external battery with output 5v 2A & usb inverter 5v to 12v for the power input. Lots of practice from DJ TLM TV and Big up!!
i've had mine for 2 years now .. i need to finally mod it .. aiming to switch the fader .. maybe that innofader stem connect .. would love the tone arm that rotates all the way to other side.. think it would help since i scratch record hand on record and fader on left hand..
Always with great reviews. Ive been looken for a portable been away from my tables for a few years due to work but i needa get a small portable set up i can travel with, just to get back at it!! Ty for the review boss keep up the good work. Is there anyone other one you would recommend?
Nice review ,DJ TLM ,as we have watched your videos before wondering if you would ever crossover to portablism.We are very happy to see u jump on board .Welcome to the mod world of portablist as we wait on part 2 of the review peace.Paya.
Hey! Interesting to know about that "phono/line"-style cuts of oldschool turntablist. Would be interesting to find some videos back from those days. One more thing to mention: PT-01 can work as a DVS right out of the box! You just need to hook it up to your iPad (never tested with iPhone, but I guess it should work too) and run Mixfader-app. Then you can connect portable Mixfader via bluetooth, put timecode-vinyl and voila - here`s a portable DVS-setup. At least how I use it.
@@djTLMtv I wish Reloop Spin would work in that way, since I need to use external audiointerface to make it work with Mixfader-app (just like you mentioned above). Talking about Reloop Spin, IMO its better than PT-01 almost in everything "out of the box", like platter, torque, start/stop button, power-bank support, etc. But that "DVS-feature with iPad" is a big advantage of PT-01, at least for me.
Nice review!! Have one and just tried to connect with USB to the computer and figured out that the sound of the vinyl is out but I cant use the feder, neither the tone and volume. Would be grate if you can help me with that! thanks!!!
@@djTLMtv I am working on a mini set up with two Numark PT01 turntables, Raiden 100 Mixer, Raspberry Pi with Mixx as DVS using Serato 7 inch records and a 10 inch HDMI monitor. The options are many! Toys Toys Toys!
DJ TLM TV have you did any modifications to this turntable to it yet , if so I want to buy have it modified by you guys! I am fixing to buy me one in a few weeks, how can I get those record vinyls that you are using in this video or does those with the hardware....please let me know!!! P.s. can it be use to control any dj app like DJ Pro app for apple App Store?
It looks like a cool bit of kit! I'm getting one for my nephew, he's new to scratching and I thought it would be a great 'starter' table for him, I've heard it doesn't come with a vinyl? 🤷🏻♂️ can anyone reccomend any scratch vinyl other than the one in the video? 😎👌 thanks!
You will need an audio interface to activate Serato. For instance: if I use the PT01 Scratch with my DJM-S9 as the mixer, Serato will work. Or connect it to something like a Rane SL2 or the Denon DS1. I remember seeing a video of the DS1 as a built-in Serato mod. That’s an option as well
I always put my first comment while still watching to keep the channel busy so vlogger might get up to highlighted section on yt, but you are right , my bad @@djTLMtv
It’s all good bro. It just looked weird because I mentioned all of the mods 😄 I might even do more once I het started, but the fader, tonearm, start/stop and platter are sure shots
DJ TLM TV my advice is ditch tej plater for diy feltmats or transfer balls underneath original platter but get battery. I can run 2pts of external power bank. And when I use only one pt battery last for a week. And it’s quicker to charge one power bank then few D or AA batteries
Could you please link up those 7in serato scratch records? I've been trying to find serator control vinyl that size and couldn't find any or it wasnt in stock. Would really appreciate it, much love
Hi, I think you missed a couple of things because I did mention the battery and battery options. I also explained that you can use 12" vinyl on this turntable.
@@djTLMtv Yea it's running, nice addition to ddj sx2 .With time code vinyl and mini innofader installed in ddj it's whole diffrent story. But there's a trap.... when I first time put my hands on vinyl I fell in love 🙄♥️ and decided to buy real turntable. I bought stanton m62 with straight tonearm and I fell in love again. After a while I bought reloop rp 8000 and.... man I love it so I bought second rp 8000 and real vinyls with real music and more vinyls and so on. So it's warning for everyone you not gonna stop with just pt01 😁

that recent PCB toneatm is dope good price, you can use with shure 44 or ortofon om and theres a light built in!!!!

I’m currently testing the Omni. I’ll do a video soon
Had this for myself too! Cant wait for the Stokyo Kutter (portable fader),as for now im trying to get use to the switch fader
Once you get the hang if it the switch fader is pretty nice too
1.2.4c is hands the the best fader I used on my pt01

I did rock a QFO with a long extention cord. Does that count as portable? 😁
But yeah man, I’m looking forward to turning this bad boy into a beast! 💪🏾
The Qfo is a beast on its own.the Qfo alone makes u an original portablist!peace portablist Paya.
Maybe a Saturday Session using your portable in the near future?
That will happen for sure
@@djTLMtv ok thats great news!!im ready and waiting ✌
Great review but can't understand why Numark just don't release a new version with all the necessary mods as stock???
The market might be too niche for them to spend too much more on this product, but I don't know
Is this a good starter for learning how to scratch? Been wanting to get into it and i love the fact you can take it anywhere you go.

That’s true. That Mixfader app works with any usb turntable (and analog turntables if you add an audio interface).

Tried to modify but it still skips

Any recommendations for a right handed DJ? As far as the placement of the innofader? I typically work the fader with my left hand?
Welcome to the portablist world, you will like all there is for this little turntable.
I’m very excited about all the options!

definitely getting one , glad to see your video 1st, i will follow your lead on this one, thanks big ups! #SHARE #djtlm ✌ #djseldomscene
The stock needle is a Numark Groove Tool
Thanks
scratch disc isn't included ?
Nah
Great video thanks 🙏🏽 I think ima go with the modifications plug and play method🙂 safe for me.
you should do an update on your PT01 on the upgrades you have done and start "episodes" on how to scratch for beginners on the PT01 🙏🏽
I still haven’t modified my PT01. As soon as I do, I will make a video👍🏾
@@djTLMtv okay thank you!
any chance you could post links to the 2 wires you need for phone and speaker please,or even give me names thnaks
If you could turn this unit into a dvs system, that would be HELLA dope. please make this modification
You don’t have to mod anything. Just connect the turntable to a serato mixer (or use a serato audio interface) and use the control vinyl
saturday session with pt01
100%
how is the name from beats App? thank you !
iMaschine by Native Instruments
@@djTLMtv Thank you!!!
I really like this but is there something similar with a little bit bigger platter? I have huge hands
Yo TLM! Have you tried the Reloop Spin, and if so, upgraded fader for it? How do you think it compares? Thanks!
No, I haven't tried it yet. I do have the OMNI here and I'll be testing that soon
I'm curious did you do the modifications in the meantime ?
Watching this in 2021. Decided to buy this . want to learn. HOw To scratch.
