Aza Posted September 6, 2005 Report Posted September 6, 2005 Right then chaps..... So I know what I need to save I need to decide on a mixer out of those subjected above. I understand that the 500 does not have a cue split and not as many FX as its elder brother. There is a nifty £100 difference in price. :roll:
Bjorn Posted September 6, 2005 Report Posted September 6, 2005 tough decision mate, ive had a look and theres some other small differences: - thr 500 has no record output (kinda important huh - can't believe this!) - the 500 has lower db levels for the min/max eq's (than the 600) - the 600 has crossfader curve control - the 600 also has the sampler which the 500 does not! Hmm, without knowing this i would go for the 500 as its about £130 cheaper, but the lack of record feature is a bit poo. still - theres ways around this usuing some spliter cable. TBH about effects i never use mine really o nm y mixer, but it individual preferance i suppose. HArd to call, depends how much money u have aza, hehe Hope that helps mate P.S just got the cds, thanks mate!
whos_this_guy Posted September 6, 2005 Report Posted September 6, 2005 mate i stressed over whether to geth the m600. splashed out and has mad a big diffrence in djin. you will love the effects and the trims are perfect!
Aza Posted September 9, 2005 Author Report Posted September 9, 2005 Cheers guys, big help there! Bjorn mate I think a recording output feature is essential init! Cant be arsed with all that splitter stuff. I think with the difference's identified there, the 600 is definately worth going for. Just gotta find a nice cheap place now for "www.decks.co.uk" to price matcha and beat (same with the cd-j's if any of you know where to get em cheap ) Also a feature that I use is "cue mix" in the heaphones, which the 500 doesnt have :roll:
Bjorn Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 yeah man, 600 all the way - whatst he cue mix? i think i have this on my mixer - its a knob that u twist at one end is whatever is cued (by press the monitor button for a channel) and the other end is the master so in between is a mix??! Lol!
Aza Posted September 9, 2005 Author Report Posted September 9, 2005 cue mix is where you sort get the track out on master slightly blended in with the track you wish to mix in if you get me. I usually use this feature just as I am about to bring in the mix to make sure its spot on! By the way. I once hada mate in Cardiff who invested in a 600 and not only the amazing features, but just the sound quality produced by the mixer is in a different league, you can really notice when you bend the bass and treble etc........ 8-)
Bjorn Posted September 9, 2005 Report Posted September 9, 2005 yeah the pioneer 600 is renowned for its sound qiality isn't it - thats what simon patterson told me :wink:
Spin Doctor Posted September 11, 2005 Report Posted September 11, 2005 Debated this when I upgraded a while back. Got the 600 and haven't regretted it one bit.
