I just wanna say the collection behind u is very impressive. Id spend all day sampling back there 😄
That 78 function was awesome!
Ive overlooked a lot of 78s while digging in the past
Thank you for your help, Ive now setup my first turntable at the age 31. Its never too late to learn something new friends.
Review, walk through and skillz on point.
Fantastico, finalmente Technics ha rimesso in commercio il suo piatto più famoso, una gioia per i Fan.
This was a marvelous DEMO as always! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Big up for this! Great review. Special props for the “junglist massive” quote 🤣🙌🏻
what an awesome demo. got myselfe one of these (no money yet for all the rest hahaha)
you really inspire me, i hope i'm in the game soon myself!
thanks for that, more content please!
They have the best accurate digital pitch fader 🎚 out there , and the sound quality using vinyl only it’s excellent.
I just copped the same needles they stick sooooo nice
@James B I used 500s for years then 680s and then cdjs kinda took over now I'm back to wax I love these om scratch , i may upgrade the stylus to niteclub e later on but for now they sound very full and tight
Respect for vinyl colection .Mk7 's pich control is great..
I run two MK7s and a Seventy at home. Sure there are cheaper options but it's a great rig.
Hi ScratchBastid, I have a question. With the new MK7R, is there no longer a deadspot at the pitch between 7% -8%? I own two 1210 MK7s myself since Release in 2019. It doesn't really bother me, I love my MK7 :D just looks like the problem no longer exists with yours? Or have you already reached the 8% with Serato with the pitch at 7%? I would be very happy about an answer from you ;) Greetings from Germany
Hi Please can you advise me about headshells & needles for scratching and beat juggling.. do DJs use ortofon concorde scratch???? If not what should I buy in 2020
Nice and simple review. Still not sure if buying an old 1200 or mk7 thought. Is the pich problem only resolved because of this special Red Bull edition. I really don't know.
SB, SB, this was an absolute amazing demonstration of the MK7s so much so I looked at buying options($1000ea) uh..... Maybe since they have an event name on them and a different color tone arm it commands the price they are asking but, IMO it seems a bit overpriced for the "old tech" they are marketing. I bring up the price because as consumers we have more and more options out there and some produce near identical results with less upkeep/overhead. So outside of the obvious ability to play vinyl how do you think they stack up against the Rane series (I know it's more of a controller)? I am curious to know your thoughts on the performance and price point for each of the systems.
the coreless motor design is actually something technics has had since 1979 they used it in most of their sl q series turntables like the q20 and q30 it was smaller than what's in the new 1200s but nonetheless a coreless design with a flat magnet just like the mk7.
I'm on the fence on whether to pick up a MK7 or a Rane 12 MK2...any thoughts here?
Still have my original 1200's i bought in 1988.. they are still running Strong with no problems.
Like to see the 1200's in silver.
I've only ever unboxed 1 new 1200 sometime in 2000, I've owned about a dozen over the years and should have kept some lol I've even been given a few when cdjs were really popular, I have a pair of geminis now and they work fine but they ain't the wheels of steel!
Which mixer is better Rane 70 or 72 MkII? I'm planning to buy Rane 12 MKII but I'm don't know which mixer ?
Just got a loft find crusty crunked pair of 1210 mk2's at a steal of a price. So stoked. Gonna be some mad hours to get dem FFWWEEEESSSSHHHHH. Let's spin dis sht. I could go for mechancal perfection with a rat finish. Not sure yet. I am a digable rare groove pre skool junglist. 🙏❤️🙏
Dope!!
Would really like to know your experience with the resonance and feedback now you’ve had them longer? Also if you’ve found anymore issues! Thanks in advance
Hey @ScratchBastid is the SL 1200MK7, SL 1210 mk7 & sl 1200 M7L the same thing in different colours 😅? Or is there performance differences
Is this version better than the all black technic 1210 mk 7 ? And is pitch better for mixing than the oem turntables ?
I think you look a little bit like Bboy Menno :D One of the greatest ;)
Master👏👏
Technics perfect❤️❤️❤️❤️
I would like to see u try on a toy controller like mixtrack pro 3 or smaller
Great video mate. You need a lavier clip on mic!
Can you do a vid on how to prevent dust, dealing with dust getting on the recoredsnd catching the needle. Dirty hands or clammy hands getting the records grubby. And will dust wreck the needle, how to clean the needles ect? That would be awesome.
Previous comment didn’t post. Hope this one does.
I use a microfiber rag to clean my equip/vinyls. Warm water and damp rag. When cleaning your vinyls, remember to go along the grooves and it was playing in forward motion. Gentle, no need to press hard on vinyl. As for needle cleaning, I have an old felt brush Stanton needle cleaner. My guess is something soft which will not damage your needles. Hope this helps🤙🏽
Hi Scratch. I have had this video on my bookmarks bar for such a long time and I've been dying to ask you about the pitch. I've heard there's a fault on some, was that true or just on some early versions? How the hell do you distinguish between old versions and new ones? Is there some kind of batch number I should be looking out for?
@@thrale Cheers Rich thats really helpful insight. I definately am going to get a pair to go with my 1200's. Cheers bud.
Just found your channel from a video posted a few years back showing an introduction to Time Coded Vinyl.
Please tell me HOW YOU GOT ARTWORK ON YOUR VINYL!!
If you could provide a link, that would be pretty cool.

I’ve noticed on a lot of dvs DJ videos you can hear the the Serato noise map/control tone under the music. Is this just on video or can you also hear it in person? I’ve never used dvs, still using vinyl. I’m thinking of getting Serato but if you can constantly hear that noise under all your tunes I’m not sure if I should go digital. I think it would get quite annoying!
I know this is old. But its just coming through the needle, not actually going through the speakers. You can get 6 mv carts which are plenty loud, and its not as noticeable. New mixers should be able to let you adjust the gain sensitivity of the phono stages to accommodate whatever your cart is.
Because you are using Serato I can hear the tone quite easily.
Do you have any issues with feedback/resonance on the mk7?
I'm 41 years old and have been DJing professionally since 1995 when I was 16 years old. At clubs in Center City Philadelphia, and at a clothing store at a shopping mall just outside Philadelphia. I ended up writing a couple sets of 16 for two dudes I was DJing for in the year 2000, ended up being good at it and the rest was the rest. Point being I always loved scratching, beat juggling and sampling with one memory bank on the mixer Etc. Long story short it disgusts me how ever since Serato, tractor, sync buttons in general, and controllers in general have come out everybody and their mother has now become a DJ. Believe me, I the sample Bank being invaluable like when you and your boy are getting down. One of y'all scratching the Doobie Brothers harmonica solo, and your boy cutting the beat to it. I do a lot of scratching and matching acapellas 2 Beats that don't go to the acapella. My question... Will I, can I ever stop being such a hater on these new technologies and the way they've changed turntablism forever. Try not to break my balls it's a real question, thanks peace✌
You gotta let it go bro, im 40 and know exactly what you mean but it is what it is, real heads recognise new heads dont care. I see some new DJs and you can tell they playing a premixed set over the sampler channel and doing some scratches and ''lipsyncing'' their mixes on the decks. Im a member of a couple DJ groups and 99% of new DJs dont care as long as they make the crowd dance, thats the new standard.
Truth is Hip Hop, DMC, ITF, Battle style DJing is a small minority in DJing these days. But us old heads also gotta admit if back in the 90s we had buttons on the mixer that could instantly skip the track to any point we wanted in the song we wouldnt of ever bothered backspinning. If we had a button that instantly matched tempos no way we would spend 4 bars trying to beat match over headphoones.
@@sc239 I hear you... Your time wasn't wasted answering me. I guess it all goes back to that same paradigm. The "dj" who matches Beats usually techno and matching the beat, dropping it on the one at the right spot and fading out in eight bars or whatever is the entire "trick"... and turntablists like us who beat juggle, scratch do DMC tricks and whatnot. Almost reminds me of techno DJs who would pretend twisting the level knobs on their highs and lows somehow filtered any of the Techno sounds coming from the records 😂😂😭. What you said about cats lip syncing there mixes pre-recorded is some absolute new level shit though. Talk about the scrapes of the bottom of the barrel.
Bottom line is that people feel your vibe and are attracted to that.
I never read long comments on UA-cam but I had to read this thread. I agree with both of you. As a DJ since 96 (with a lot of “life breaks” in between) I can relate.
Ye I def agree with the barrier to entry being drastically lower than it was back then but you can't fake passion for the art. You can however be a pretty shitty dj and still get booked if you know the right people.
I generally agree with you when it comes to that. Its pretty fucking wack. People with no culture in 'em trying to get behind something that has history behind it just for the looks. Corny af. But its just how it is.
I do think people get too carried away with the digital tech too when it comes to mixing and just doing a fuckload of effects at once. Not a fan.
21 BTW, not from Philly, but I'm about 30 mins away from there.. PEACE!
does anybody know what was the song from the Armstrong record
HOW DID YOU GET THE ARTWORK ON THE RECORD???
How much torq does it have?
So as the quality of the mk7 goes, can anyone answer if they are even worth buying? Or just stick to my mk2’s? Ty
what needles you using Thanks Great Video
Ortofon om scratch (in white)
Big up the junglist massive
Wish there was a 3style edition of this. But I guess Pioneer DJ has the rights to that 🤔
Pionèer DJ has the rights to 3style? That would make a lot of sense. You and Puffy are 3style champions and use only Pioneer Gear...
Maa man
I like them but Stanton ST.150 w/the (s) curve tone arm has just the same.
But the accessories are very nice.
Skratch are they any good ?
Tô querendo comprar um par de techiniks como eu faço vc poderia mim informa uma loja de techiniks
Guys ... what is that beat / instrumental at the end, in the outro from 18:32 ???
anyone? please?
@@ftomiwd Sean Fury - They Keep Talking
@@pstentertnmt Thank you but *nope* ;) I don't think so ... anyone else please? Perhaps that's a mix from 18:32 ? Two tracks maybe? It has definitely the same/similar vocal sample of "Hey" that the Main Gal song has ( ua-cam.com/video/ATGm_-fyWQ4/v-deo.html ) ... but I'd need this one with this fat beat.
I'm so mad that Panasonic is pretending that they did not fix the dead spots at both ends of the pitch fader that all MK7s pre September 2020 have just in time for this Red Bull version. I have two units and while this isn't terrible when within 6-8% range, when using x2 the 12-16% is crammed between 6% and 7% on the fader which makes it really hard or just impossible to use.
You are always nice in what you do and you have soul. You should be in kick ass movie!!!!! A Hard Core One with The best !!!! I want your autograph how can I get that!!
Thanks for sharing your view on this! i have a question for you, are they made in Japan like the old ones?
No they are not.
Aw you got the louie on 78? #jelly
Definitivamente usted es la Bestia Principal de esta jodienda tú eres un PRO mis Respeto a mi tócallo es un orgullo para mi que lleves mi nombre te quiero eres el mejor The magnífico💪💪👍⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️BEST CRIMINAL att:David J k-Rolina.
I’m sorry but the all black is so cheap, the silver buttons etc added a nice touch of quality.
i want to buy a dj setup but it is all so expensive, do you know a cheap but good starter setup?
look at Reloop 7000 Mk2 good starter deck
@@rustypipe thanks
Reloops are good to work with. Plenty pros use it.
WOT A FANNY
This brother is an amazing DJ, and he’s definitely knowledgeable of DJ gear. But, I just wish that when he does these review videos, he would use the right microphone so his voice wouldn’t be so echoey
I know it is about functionality, but Red Bull emblem on it? No thanx..🤷♂️
i recon it looks awful
Like the torn arm color it look fresh n dope I probably get a pair I'm thinking about it but tecthnic is technic n trust them is not the wheel of steel anymore I heard they made out of plastic most truntable are made of plastic now n day what I care how long they're will last I still got my wheel of steal mk 2 n my new mk 5 in black don't use them cus they black I like silver color but I like those mk 7R they hot Whit that torn arm color all black don't like
There are ways to increase isolation on the mk7 without using different feet and it’s quite easy to do. Follow the Technics sl 1210 mk7 owners group on Facebook for like minded people.
Returned my MK7's they felt cheap and had erratic pitch fader issues.
*Venomyous* how did u retune them? Or did you mean return?!
@@lustforlow-end6022 Returned*. See this guys videos on the mk7 platter and pitch fader issues: ua-cam.com/users/JustTechnicssearch?query=mk7
i heard i was hoping these would be better :(
I have a pair of MK7s and I’ve never experienced the kind of things that I’ve seen UA-camrs report (eg pitch fader deadspots). I’m starting to think that a small minority had a bad batch or the reviews are exaggerating.
@@SparkleJam43 From what I've seen, the early production runs had QC issues that have since been corrected.
The alignment of those expedits is giving me anxiety...
I fixed it :)
Love mine! Pitch is great for mixing. 1 minute mix locked in with only minor ajustments. Just too expensive!!!!! 1600 hundred! But if you do have to have technics. Had a set of Numark TTX1s. Pitch was always ajustments. You could get them a close as u can but had to ajust to slow down by touching the plater systematically. Mk2 will always be the best for mixing long mixes hands down
I have a pair of 1200 M5G. The only thing I'm not liking about the new MK7 is the fact that the entire tone arm assembly is one unit.
Olá
DISCOWORM DJ WANTS TO SCRATCH ! NEEDLE ON THE RECORD. SAN FRAN,
HasTechnics fixed the dead spot issue?
HELL NO!
@@Venomynous it looks like the have in this video.
@@rustypipe Connected to serato controlling software. The issue is stand alone.
I’ve never experienced this issue myself.
Yes.
the mk7s were cheaply built with more plastic and less feedback protection.They were way overpriced and not up to standard.I have not seen these new mk7s opened up but i would be interested to find out how the feedback protection is on these.So far i have not seen anything here that hasnt been done already by Stanton on their classic STR8 range.Also mostly a pair of old school Technics with no feedback issues and most of these features without the insane prices would do as well
@Paul Williams yes thats the one i saw.These new mk7s may or may not be ok but Mojaxx does proper tests and sometimes tests in a club when he can.If him or someone else can do a test like that for these then one could make an informed choice.. The original mk7s were an expensive step down.I hope lessons were learned.
@Paul Williams Cool.If i could get them it would be the Stanton str8s that came in grey ,blue or red,They were as heavy as fuck and had a higher torque and a straight or s shaped tone arm. I still may get a pair if i can find a decent pair second hand.I had some Technics but i gave them to a friend of mine as at the time i didnt need them.
These turntables have feedback issues with vinyl playback. Very sad
*I heard the isolation on these are terrible.*
I heard the opposite - AND *OOPS* *Better bold my letters to be a snide little idiot like yourself*
@@FeeLtheHertZ Go watch Mojaxx review on these. I know you will like it. 😊
@@ReboyGTR Returned my MK7's they felt cheap and had erratic pitch fader issues.
Best brand new turntable on the market. If you want better get a pair of technics mk2's freshly serviced.
@@getcarter4dynamo No they're not. I'd rather use a Super OEM than the MK7.
I've heard that the digital pitch is shit ?
See this guys videos on the mk7 platter and pitch fader issues: ua-cam.com/users/JustTechnicssearch?query=mk7
These r 1210's ..even says the box
Put this mk7 on bassy environment - and you will see they are shit! The problem with mk7 is the shitty materials 7kg weight, there are from PLASTIC (the bottom) the GR and Mk2 are multilayer construction from spezial heavcy rubber and BMC spezial material.... www.technics.com/pl/produkty/grand-class/seria-sl1200g/sl-1200g.html
Digital fader is shit go for Mk2
I'll pass. I'll keep my M5Gs
Shilling for a poison drink .
I understand you're scratching here, but the overdone hand gestures just take away from your professionalism.
DJ Premier laughs at you Bro
Oh dear, not...overdone hand gestures?!
First world problems.
