Basic Juggling with the Vestax Handy Trax

In continuation of my last demo with the Handy Trax demonstrating scratching and mixing, here is a demo showing some basic juggling with Otis Redding's "Tramp" and Sly and the Family Stone's "Sing a Simple Song." Enjoy!

@tinktwiceman

Portable turntables in general aren't going to sound so great.

[buscrates]

the vestax sounds better for some reason..there's more mids..unless his EQ-ing for each turntable is different. Good stuff, man.

[qahtani]

Actually the problem is it's two different pressings of the record. One is from Otis Redding's "The Soul Album" while the other is from "King and Queen." Same song, different albums.

1.02 whats that song ?

and seeing as I just read the post above about the needles on them , is there a possibilty to replace the headshells ? or stylus ?

[qahtani]

"Sing a Simple Song" by Sly and the Family Stone. You cannot replace the headshell and the stylus can only be replaced with the same stylus is ships with.

how are the motors on the handy trax?? seems like it must be powerful!

[glmalvar]

Yeah, did you use a special needle on the HandyTraxx to scratch?

[Noodle880]
