- How long have you use it?

It was a little over a year
- What is the particular feature you like best and least?

>> Assets:

* The look
* The turntable 20cm Diameter
* The 4 hot cue points
* The 4 Sample Pads (recording 32 sec. Per sample)
* The Pitch Lock: not seen any diffrence to the master tempo of the CDJ 1000
* The "Instant Change" that allows you to switch from stop / off mode dpart Instant / vinyl dpart

>> Cons:
* No buckles (you must set the "in" and "out" or even, when you do a live, if you miss a point of entry or exit is the cata ...)
* No "Time Remaining" when using the mp3
* Effects: avoid (personally I've never used), more if you want to select an effect in a live, they must pass one by one so it's not usable
* The compulsory purchase of software (Jukebox Panasonic) if you want to use the mp3 on the SD card. Impossibility to put mp3 on the SD card to mix ... Bizness Politik '...
* No possibility of scratching Pitch Lock Mode
* Load times and startup CD of the plate
* The brake rglage of the rear shelf of the plate

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

Before the acqurir: No
APRS: testing a Pioneer CDJ 1000 (the first)> I do not know what people found this board ... She did nothing extraordinary to me APRS and the more it bugs (h yes cd decks like all I believe!). Trs plastic finish and no Cue hot ... Finally we are not to talk about the CDJ 1000!

- How do you report qualitprix?

My cot when Technics made the effort to make updates, the ratio quality price is right for me. Unfortunately, they make the deaf ears and out of an update every 36 months and when they come out, we do not know what it is exactly ...

A quote from the 'bugs' of the plate with the current v2.3:
* No Time Remaining mode mp3
* When you press play or cue point and when the deck is the stop, if the tempo is DCAL (forward or backward) the plate does not Ragit instantanment the thrust e or slowing the board. We must "wait" 1 2 ragisse it dry.
* If the "Instant Change" is active, the timing of his scratch to be DCAL during movements of the plate (n'tant not confirm a crazy scratch)

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...

For the moment yes. Opting for a CD player that a turntable I have not found equivalent:
* The Numark CDX 1: not robust enough (I almost buy the egg)
* The DN-S 3500: plate too small, look through, the couple infrieur sl-dz
* The DN-S 5000: I want to try it, maybe I will pass on this MODEL ...

If you have questions, Do not hesitate because I think I have not done everything (is that ... it takes time to comment;))
