MGR/Spinster « Numark CDN-88 Dual CD Player »
Published on 10/31/03 at 15:00Paid $850 on ebay. Needed a good dual CD player for gigs and the Numark unit offered a feature set that was just right and met my requirements.
What's not to like? This unit features pitch lock, pitch control at 6 percent, 12 percent, 25 percent and 100 percent. There's also a built-in beatkeeper that gives accurate BPM with auto-mixing. You can have two complete loops with three hot stutter starts per CD. Not to mention the built-in effects including: reverse, flange, warp, bleep, chop, slide and kill. There's so much more functionality, but these are the primary features that really caught my eye.
There's not much to NOT like. I can't really add much in this column except maybe that the unit is a bit pricey. But then again, you get what you pay for.
First rate construction and quality will hold up to years of gigging abuse, weddings, drunk people at parties, etc.
A great dual CD player at a price point that's a little more than I wanted to pay, but heck, it's the quality and feature set that will provide the pay back. I'm a big believer in not skimping on equipment because you always end up wanting the better model anyway.
