MIXERS Is it suitable for scratching / trance? There is technically no difference between a scratch mixer and any other mixer - they both mix sound sources. The difference between the two mixers is down to the layout of the controls - i.e. the cross-fader will be in a more accessible position on a scratch mixer as it is used more often. In addition, scratch mixers tend to have extra features used by scratch DJ's - i.e. cross-fader curve controls, hamster switches. Other mixers include features like effects units, which a scratch DJ would rarely use. Please note however there are no hard and fast rules. With so many mixers on the site, you should always pick the mixer you're most happy with. What are kill switches? Kill switches are used to chop certain frequencies from your track - usually there are 3 switches (or 3 "bands"). One cuts the bass (removes the bass line), one for the mid (which chops the mid range/vocal's) - and Treble (the 'tops' of the music - high hats,etc) What is split cue? Split cue allows you to hear both the output from your mixer and the channel you are 'cueing' at the same time. Annoyingly, different manufactures produce different kinds of split cue. True split cue is where you have the output of your mixer in 1 ear, and the channel you are cueing in the other. This allows you to mix without the need for any speakers! In general, the more expensive the mixer, the more user friendly the split cue. The other 'split cue' is a little more confusing. You'll find a control which at one end of the dial you hear only the channel you are cueing, whilst at the other end of the dial you hear just the output from mixer. Turn the knob and you can "mix" between the two. This can be very handy in a noisy situation. |
