    My buddy Tek Threat left this mixer at my house for an entire 2 years back in the early 2000s. Probably the most scratching and juggling I ever did in my entire life.

      countteddy hi there. Just wondering how much did you paid for? And did you ordered it from Japan? If so how much was the cost for import duties. Thanks

  • @JamBurglar

    The thing about those Technics mixers is that the cross-faders were super-buttery. Way more buttery than anything out at the time, BUT, they wore out crazy fast! With heavy use the fader would be having issues within weeks.

    • @CJScratch

      the EX had an optical crossfader

    • @JamBurglar
      @JamBurglar 6 років тому

      Right on, I never realized that. We had a black one at the radio station, I guess that's the "DJ" model. Beautiful mixer and that fader was focus-fader smooth the first week or so and then started bleeding like crazy.

    it was advertised that the EX1200 had an optical crossfader and the extra fader in the bottom compartment was for the line faders ...

    The headphone jack/cable prevents one from inadvertently hitting the power switch so not really an issue unless your not using cans. Been mixing since 1993, I'm on my third set of MK2's combined with a Technics mixer, got the SH-EX1200 this time as opposed to previously owning the models with rubbish crossfaders and I'm seriously impressed with it. I play old-school hardcore techno, gabber and happy hardcore (all pre 1997) and find this mixer does everything I want perfectly and the sound quality is excellent. Got my mint 1200's combined with a black SH_EX set up in pride if place in my front room, looks great!

So keep up the reviews you always bring me back to great memories when you break put the classic 's ..ya dig ..and that mixer was a classic

  • @mrz32go

    Easily one of my favorite faders to scratch on! Real easy to control not too buttery not too stiff. Luckily it still hasn’t bled yet then again it’s not my everyday mixer, bought it used a few years back and still running like a champ! Would be super dope if technics came out w a newer battle style mixer! I’d def cop one!!! Great vids bro! Peace ✌🏼

    I have one signed by Qbert & D-Styles from a show we did in Japan.
    And it's no legend, there are warehouses in Okinawa and Tokyo with tons of these mixers (the black edition too), as well as technics and vestax TTs brand new & used.
