Equipment
Turntable
The turntable is the second most important piece of equipment,
only followed by the mixer when it comes to DJing. Although
preserving the general concept developed over 140 years ago,
today’s turntables are driven by DC motors and therefore
allow pitch adjustments, scratch-mixing, even reverse. Some
of the very new turntables also feature digital components,
such as LED screens that allow you to set motor parameters
and gain important feedback such as the BPM of a track. Generally,
while it is clear that the digital revolution is overtaking
everything, turntables by their very nature, stay true to the
sound of generations passed and allow all of us to live the
tradition. Nothing comes close to the mechanical warmth and
dynamic response of a turntable.
