i'm pretty sure that console mixers, and 19" mixers refer to the kinds used in studio.. a little scratch mixer will be fine.

Man dont get a cheap mixer bro, cross faders fuck real easy especially on cheap ones. Them things are important if you plan on mixing, if you thinkin about scratchin get some Stantons otherwise your vinyl will get eaten.

The package I plan on buying is by Stanton.
• 2 Stanton STR-8 60 Turntables
• 1 Stanton SK6 Mixer
• 2 Stanton 500al-2 Cartridges
• 2 Stanton Slipmats
It comes out to like $573.00


Do you think this is worth it. Cause I'm trying to sratch.

How are Numark's turntables and mixers? Are they any good?

i dunno if stantons decks are any good, all i can remember is that they have some with rounded corners that are good. if you can afford em get technics, gemini do some good decks now the pt2400 is a nice deck.
