Mixer suggestions

Post by the wiggle baron » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:09 pm

Easy now, a mate of mine is looking to upgrade his mixer from...a £15 piece of crap from cash generator. Ive had an ecler hak 320 for years and couldnt recommend it more, but if anyone has any suggestions for a mixer that should be fairly easy to get hold of for lets say £200 second hand, have good full kill eqs, a recording output (although im pretty sure its only £15 pieces of crap from cash generator that dont have one...) and preferably 3 channels it would be awesome.

Just after a good solid mixer really. Good gains, nice sound, not too much faff.

Safe!

I managed to nab my DJM-400 for £150 from cash converters, solid mixer, does the job perfectly. Great gains, eq, quality effects unit for the price. Only downside would be two channels instead of the three you're looking for, but if you can find one for the price I got mine, I highly reccommend it.

I have a Rane TTM57 and can vouch for its quality :D:

you can get a used Rane TTM56 (same except without the serato box built in) for cheap theses days and they are great as well

ill stress this one more time : with dj equipments, i firmly believe that the best thing to do is to buy equipment that gets u anxious about howmuch u just shelled out on one piece.. in the long run, ull pay less.. and get better results...

With a budget of £200 second hand, I'd go for a Rane (I got my 54i for £150) or a Vestax 05 or 06 (easily got for £150)
You might be able to get an Allen & Heath if you wait for a while.
