my current set up is two numark tt1625, a numark dxm01 mixer and a crate full of vinyl (Pretty basic set up, I know but it does the job :) )
I was wondering who else out there uses vinyl to mix/record mixes???
below is a minimix i have made using the above gear, and i am hoping that all you vinyl spinners such as myself have a mix to post up aswell.
please post your mix below as i always find new mixes, especially if they are done with vinyl so inspirational!! :W:

Hi there, i mix vinyl only and i can't even think of doing it differently,
check my last mix: ATTACK OF THE SONIC OCTOPUS

http://www.mixcloud.com/kixo/attack-of-the-sonic-octopus/

If any of you have advices or secret tips for mixing vinyl better, share it!

for exemple, do you drop the vinyl directly in the mix ( you know back n forward in tempo and drop) or do you drop it in the headphone and then introduce it in the mix via faders (pretty hard to explain this in english for me :) )?

OK, here are some tips. There is no right or wrong, just do what works for you, but this is what works for me.

I always que a track up in the headphones first to ensure it is the correct speed, and cross reference it with the outgoing tune. I never just drop a track straight in, as if it is out of time, your gonna be correcting it in the mix, in real time, with both faders up.

I try never to touch a record once in the mix, if you can avoid it, always use the pitch chase using the pitch shifters to slow up/down. Much smoother.

Watch your eq's. As you bring a track in, the eq's on an incoming track should be brought up gradually. Likewise, the eq's on an outgoing track can be brought down gradually.

Here is a dubstep minimix with grimey vocals to inspire a friend: Soundcloud

Here is my first recorded mix:
It was a few months ago and not 100% tight, I hope to make a new and hopefully improved videomix soon.
Do any of you who spins vinyl here have any video mixes to show? I would love to see them!

Been mixing vinyl since feb or so this year. Always get a broad smile when I see DJ's that do vinyl =)

Keep it up all!

nice videomix, you should take care of correctly overlapping the beats when you introduce a new track, it gives me the mood of doing one myself (i'm pretty sure this post is full of english mistakes...) :)

@Kixo

Nice one! Thank you for making that video, it was interesting. The first mixes felt solid. I didnt like the two that you dropped straight in so much, altho you made the last one very interesting by getting the two tunes together very nicely!
I have alot to learn from people like you.

Keep it up! :)
