Turntable Help.

Which brand/model do you recommend? What do you use?
I'm just looking for something that I can sample from with good quality.
And what about a mixer?

I use a numark ttusb its pretty good comes with a needle and everything and you can hook it up to your computer and then put the sample in the MPC sound quality is good but you can't scratch but its great for sampling

Technics SLD-2. Direct drive. Sounds good. Solid construction. You can scratch with it if you want to. Got mine for $75. Had to replace the needle: cost another $40.
