This doesnt belong is this sub forum i guess besides the fact i want to accompany my 1k, but you guys are so helpfull and respond very quickly so i dotn care. I need a turntable to sample off i was wondering if the numark or vestax portables sound shitty or ok enough to sample off for cheap, or just something for like 0-200 us dollars to sample off, liek a cheap turntable and mixer that soudns decent, or ive seen those 99 dollar sonys that arent for cratching jsut palyign will that work, or how bout that cheap little gemini first mix for 200 that seems liek an ok buy for a tuntable and mixer. note i do not care about mixing/scratching jsut smapling. and do most all dj turntables play 45s and 33s?

thanks in advance

Go to a thrift shop they have cheap used ones you can buy.

better than a ok dirty sound, it has a great dirty sound, and its direct drive

i would say get a semi good table and a semi good needle.. otherwise all your samples are goin to sound dirty. thats just me though.
