Vestax PMC-CX Carl Cox Rotary DJ Mixer

This classic mixer is pure unadulterated DJ audio-porn.

You either know about this mixer or you don’t. And if you don’t, it means you’re probably not worthy. 

It’s the Carl Cox designed ‘super rare’ classic from the mid-nineties that every up and coming DJ dreamed about.

I suspect the person who buys this to be having some kind of mid-life crisis. This mixer will compliment it perfectly. 

Make me an offer and I’ll be prepared to consider it if you’re banter is agreeable and your mid-life crises is beautifully pitiful enough. 

It’s in great condition and works perfectly. People who own this shouldn’t sell this, hence why it’s super rare. I’m selling not because I want to, but because my wife told me our dining room isn’t the DJ Booth of Pacha. 

It comes with the slider fader kit too (as opposed to using the rotary knob kit, as pictured). Only re-install it if you want to lose sex appeal.

Includes power supply as pictured.

FEATURES:

Introducing the PMC-CX Matrix Input Assign System with 4 units of Stereo Isolators featured on each PGM as well as the Master Out. It includes refined filter effects and superb sound quality and also headphone EQs that many DJs have asked for. 

MATRIX INPUT ASSIGN SYSTEM: For the first time ever, Vestax has introduced a Matrix Input Assign System allowing up to select any source to 3 program channels from a total of 8 stereo sources (4 phono, 4 line). For instance, one input source can be assigned to all 3 channels at the same time or 4 input sources can be assigned into one program channel. `

PGM & MASTER ISOLATOR: Again another first of its kind, the ISOLATOR came into the world in 1992 and quickly became a global standard equipment among DJs. 12 years have past since the release of the 24dB/OCT 3-band isolator "DCR-1200" and after going through a number of improvements, 4 units of the ISOLATOR have been pre-installed to both 3 program channels and the master section on the PMC-CX. An Anti Phase Mix has also been added to make a linear cut on the source center-positioned to reach frequency range (mid, low). 

USER REPLACEABLE VESTAX PCV CROSSFADER: Has 4 pre-set crossfader curve settings for long or short mixing (scratching and cutting).

NEWLY DEVELOPED FILTER EFFECT SYSTEM: Featured on the HI PASS, LO PASS filters is a new system never seen before! With extreme intricate waves creating the fattest and biggest sounds while at the same time when you press both switches, it turns to create soft and natural waves generated through a dip sweep/band pass filter.

VCA CIRCUIT AND HIGHLY RELIABLE 60MM FADER: Vestax 60mm railed faders are used for both input faders and crossfader. With a VCA circuit, audio signals are passed through the faders and allowe to co-exist with opposite elements to provide smooth fader movement with volume control, yet keeping higher durability. The input fader is detachable and an optional rotary fader is also available. The crossfader curve can be adjusted with the VCA curve control.

SUBSTANTIAL MONITORING SECTION: In additon to the MUTE Switch to instantly change to headphone monitoring, the booth monitor is built to incorporate a number of features requested by working DJs. It features a 3-band EQ at +8dB/-16dB, unbalanced phone jack output, XLR balanced output, and on/off switches on the mic inputs. The headphone monitor section has a high powered amplifier with 2-band EQ/ +-12dB providing the best monitoring environment.

MIC MODULE: An extra line input has been added, and the Mic module has 2-band EQ at +-16dB

HIGH-VISIBILITY INDICATOR: The large and high quality analogue meters guide the current output levels easily and clearly. On the other hand, 12 segments LED level meters also guide both the current input level and rhythm for the program channel to provide precise information to the DJ.

EXTERNAL POWER TRANSFORMER: The large external power source has been newly applied in order for any noise to be shut at maximum in various sound environments. A large capacity of the transformer provides both +-18 Voltage and saves plenty of headroom margins.

UNIQUE CONTROL KNOBS FOR REAL TIME ACTION: The position, shape and size of all the knobs are one of the most complex parts in development and this time around were strategically and newly created with help none other than Carl Cox. 

PROFESSIONAL INPUT/OUTPUT : Master1/Master2 features phone jacks unbalanced as well as balanced Neutric XLRs. Also included is a select switch for leveling volume between -10dB and 0dB which has been added to each input/output. Master Loop Out gives master effects, and REC out records any performance at the same output level
