it will probably fly direct from germany to aus, possibly with one stopover in asia. it's probably delayed in customs check in aus, that's the only really manual step in the process
that shelf for laptop and effects looks good, but what's holding the monitors? those things weight a bit but doesn't look like you've got any bracket under the shelf?
tis not a true rotary 80% of the volume control is in the last 20% of the movement, but still better. You can swap in and out in 10 minutes, I figured I'd jsut go back to linear if I didn't like it, but never took it out again.
I'll upgrade after letting other folks test it if there's features I want, but 1.2.7 has nothing. So best case is I've got no improvement at all, worst case I suffer new bugs.
1.2.6 been there for a while, no real issues aprt from trouble re-installing. 1.2.7 has nothing except bug fixes for issues I never had, so not in a hurry to udpate
It's a mix of record holding, record wear, sound quality and price. So as wazza said, scratching, dvs etc affect decision. Stanton 500s were for years the decent cheap choice. Also don't spend a fortune if your sound system is crap.
ordering from thomann.de, I got the original order in 3 days, one record was warped and the replacement also only took about that long. these days most warehouses clear the line each day and freight companies have flights leaving late evening to accomodate the 8-4 warehouses. Unless your order is delayed in customs or order processing there's not a lot of reason for orders to take very long. though I did head NI has a long backorder list now for these shipments (ie no stock)
You can set cue points anywhere in the track. Then you select them and change the type, loop in and the like. One of the types is load marker, will default to that point when you load the track. I tend to just set a few points and use buttons mapped toove to the one I want. Also using relative mode you can go back easily if beatmatching ahead of time
you do need to include freight costs, that's how customs will calculate it. if it's close and you say $900 on the invoice you will most likely get away with it though.
plus import charge, GST etc for being over $1000. I read a link from gizmodo somewhere that said only the mk6 was being discontinued, and that's only sold in japan anyway
you'd probably see clubs with flexible space rather than adopting a particular setup. with devices like this all you need is an input to the sound system and enough desk space to setu pit up
jsut went looking for any followup in this thread and found it';s not in the prog forum, but under disco and house. proves my point, prog is a name that covers a lot of genres
