    If you already tried a new cartridge, it's most likely the RCA cables. Either the plugs are corroded or the wires are worn out from transporting or the wires got yanked off the solder. It's a simple fix. Nothing can really happen to the wires inside the tonearm, other than corrosion on the gold plated contacts. I left my 1200 Mk2s out in my balcony for a few years, only wrapped in plastic. And they were fine.

    100% get it. So for me, I did play out a bit here and there at outdoor raves in the 90's but since then I've mainly been a bedroom dj!
    I went from mixing vinyl to CDJ's when they first came out and then various controllers over the years. About 5 years ago I decided to go back to vinyl, spent a small fortune on vinyl, decks and mixer only to find that after about a year of mixing on them - I don't really care any more. I sold it all off and went back to my DDJ-1000. For me and the limited time I get to mix, it's just much less hassle.

      I still like vinyl because physical products is still how I SEE music. When ‘ripping CDs’ into iTunes was a thing 20 years ago I even found that really boring and tedious.
      I can use the basics of Rekordbox (I have a cheap DDJ400 and mixer that can DVS) but again I just don’t find it ‘fun’

    DJ'ing on vinyl without sync takes a whole load of skills many people don't have. Sadly for those with the those skills they are irrelevant now. Kind of annoying but it's reality, deal with it.
    On a wider level, with no need to learn to beat match, DJ;ing is so easy. Technology allows you to mix from Day 1. In theory that is massive progress. In reality it means a load of e-thots and people with no love of music or sharing music crowd out the DJ scene now. So the technology has both positive and negative impacts.

I definitely want to start incorporating digital tech, but in a way which utilises the 1210s, I’ve seen a lot of DMC guys do this and it seems to be a good blend of old and new.

      PS its a bit like the ease of buying music.
      30 years ago you had to pull yourself around London (or wherever) to a load of underground record shops to be able to hear and buy the music. Takes time, energy and effort. Only so many people had decent record collections.
      Now you can download anything and put it on a stick.
      That is both an amazing improvement (access to all music of all time, at home in seconds)...... but unexpectedly the death of effort to build a music collection, no longer available to weed out the fakers.
      By the way, I would also add that things that are more difficult mean more to you. If you were trying to find a tune for weeks and finally got a copy, that tune means something (you might even remember the moment of buying it 30 years later), that simply downloading it at zero effort could never bring. So making everything easier, strange as it sounds, doesn't always make the human experience better.

    Vinyl afficianado here, the format isnt important. The most important thing is to get a dancefloor buzzin' when you're playing. Everyone has their preferences. My preference is vinyl (duh). But then, I play only as a "Bedroom DJ". I have my whole archive at my disposal, that wont be the case if I went on a gig... But I can play a digital set when push comes to shove. Been on the digital format since the early nineties (Technics SL-P1200 and the CDJ500 from Pioneer)
    Every format has its pro's and con's. Just embrace every format and keep going forward and improve yourself/your skills.
    I'd rather watch someone on a CDJ pulling out all the tricks with hot cues, loops and really neat other things a CDJ can do than someone only mixing the end of track A into the beginning of track B on vinyl.
    And yes; There is NO SHAME in using the sync functionality (if it's done right with warped tracks and you already know how to beatmatch)

    I remember people moving from Vinyl to Cdj's and one of the reason I was hearing at the time time(because of where they were performing) was mostly because the main spot out here has massive speakers all around the stage and that when spinning vinyl there was a chance that the needles could jump off the records due to the vibrations from them. I'm a turntablist. Been for many years so I prefer Control Vinyl (DVS) but I can see the benefits of Cdj's. A lot of clubs moving in the Controller direction these days. Wish they all just had a pair of tech1200's like they used to.

The AIFF tip is perfect, keeps the metadata/tags, and works on all OS platforms these days. Always go lossless if you can.

  • @Naomi_Ekloef
    @Naomi_Ekloef 13 дней назад

    It could be one of several points of failure regarding your turntable only playing on one channel. First point is the needle/pickup shell. Then there is the contacts between the pickup and tonearm. Clean that with some isopropyl alcohol or contact cleaner and a q-tip. Then there is the cable running through the tonearm down to the circuit board under the tonearm assembly. They are really thin and needs to be routed the correct way. (A common mistake when you replace the tonearm is just that which results in a short circuit.) And lastly the RCA cable from the circuit board out. Usually it starts with that you can get it to work if you try and move and bend the cable some. But it needs to be replaced and that involves soldering on a new cable. (Carefully I might add so you do not brake the thin cables from the tonearm that is connecting to the same board.)

    Just get your turntable serviced properly, at 'Just Technics'.
    I have been DJ-ing since 1980, and use a controller now, simply because my record collection took over my house, and my wife said 'it was becoming a problem'.
    I don't have any problem with anyone wanting the ease and simplicity of a digital DJ setup.
    What I do have a problem with, is the utter melons who claim digital is somehow 'better', and how it requires as much skill, as using analogue.
    That is just a blatant lie, and usually said by youngsters who don't even have a clue how to put a needle into a groove, let alone have spent years mastering the art of vinyl turntablism.

    I'm surprised that DJs don't use FLAC. It's lossless like .aiff and .WAV but also compressed to reduce the file size, and the format isn't owned by a big company. Also, many "audiophiles" would tell you that most people can't hear the difference over 192kbps, 224kbps at a push and you definitely don't need a constant bit-rate of 320kbps. Go for a good encoder like LAME using the V0 VBR profile and you're good to go. I have all my music digitised in FLAC so I have a lossless version, and then V0 VBR encode for portability and every day use. I thin like all these things, the opinions out there are mostly hearsay "Oh but you can hear the difference on a big soundsystem". Can you though? If you double blinded it? If anything, the big soundsystem will distort the crap out of it!

    Pitch changes in MP3 degrades the audio quality depending on how much the track is sped up or slowed down. So mixing with Lossless prevents this 😉

      mp3 is terrible sound quality anyway, although most likely not noticeable on a dancefloor

    I am still in the process of digitising my vinyl collection its taken me a good few years on and off doing a few each week. Clubs and bars don't have vinyl decks so most djays have to be digital anyways so anyone criticising you probably isn't a dj or an active dj so don't listen to them

    The problem is those CDJs sound atrocious, and it is almost impossible to upgrade their sound.
    The cold hard fact is that less and less people go clubbing. The numbers don’t lie. DJs and club owners placing convenience over sound quality has a LOT to do with it, when an average home audio setup sounds better than what you get on a night out, minus the hassle and ludicrous costs.

    It is a load of hassle. You need to continuity test your cables from source - cartridge head - to output - phones, and then repair any breaks. Pretty skinny cables😂. Good luck.

    • @DarrenThePerson
      @DarrenThePerson 11 дней назад +1

      Same here, plus I personally find digital sounds significantly better anyway, even if it doesn't have that warm snap and crackle that so many love about vinyl. I do miss the feel of vinyl mixing, It's just too expensive for me to go back down that road anytime soon.

    It really isnt that hard to repair your decks yourself. Ive had mine for over 25 years and both have been repaired only a handful of times but done myself and both still working perfectly. Theres a couple of guides on RUclips on repairing your 1210s so I'd suggest just watching a few tutorials and just open it up 😊

  • @dw2261
    @dw2261 15 дней назад +2

    Probably what doesn't help with the digital world of DJing now is when you see these djs at venues or online etc pretending to play on digital decks and the camera pans round to see the things aren't even switched on. You know the knob twiddling prats we've all seen with hands in the air and the heart shapes with the fingers. Those guys certainly don't help the industry. Yes I'm old skool but the digital era has to be embraced but that doesn't mean you still don't put the hard work and commitment in to your sets.

    • @djhurleymkfm

    Yes to all of that and just a cable as many other said re the turntable 😊 Have to say, turning up at a venue or event and there’s a broken turntable, well, you are gonna have to play digital anyway. Good to have options!
