[Tony P]

haven't used a mk 2

was comparing it to the mk 1

but the 800 has all these features and its only pressing a button, does it really matter??

don't think you would be any sort of a dj if you relied on this actually, in my eyes its just cheating....sorry

 

probably on a par with the mk 2, i agree with you there

 

[BenRW]

i don't use the smart cards either except for just listening, i have it set up so that i can go to certain points in the tidy boys live @ tw2 at the touch of a button. Also for the techno mix of revolution on BK - Klub collaborations as it starts 7 mins into the last track

 

can work without it tho. Its too easy as u said otherwise

[Tony P]

so not really worth the extra money just for that then is it?

Think you will find its invaluable to scratch djs who use them! Sets the sample-cues up instantly!

I've found the 1000mk2 is better for mixing house as it's *slightly* more accurate than the 800's I've used, (though it might have been a pair of clapped out 8000's I was using at the time) but I prefer to use the 800's when mixing D&B as I find it much more fun being able to mess about with the loops more - you can do some wicked off-beat sheeeit on them! I think the 1000mk2 should have the *hot cue* buttons AND the old loop buttons - why take a wicked feature off of a *new and improved* model??

I've got a 1000mk2, but I will be investing in an 800 soon too, so that I can have the best of both worlds (so to speak)

[Nick G]

P.S - what sort of price are you looking for??

[BenRW]

i'm looking in the region of £400-450 which is fair considering it comes with a flightcase with removable lid.

 

Am going to my mums 2moz which is where it is atm so will take a pic and post it up if i can get online there

[BenRW]

bid is up to £400 for this atm
