Video response to Djdeanthomas, a look at the KAM DDX4500 usb

Alright folks, Jonathan here. Had a comment left from a YouTube user by the name of DJ Dean Thomas and they've asked me to give a demo with these guys here. They're the Cam DDX-4500 USBs. I'll tell you a little bit more about them in future videos. They're quite small and diddy, ideal I suppose for turntablers but because I'm a mixing DJ I prefer to mess around with a pitch control quite a lot. And the way I actually find out if a pitch control is pretty good, I don't use any headphones and I seriously mess around with it as you will see. The beats may go off a little bit, but who gives a monkey's? This isn't about how good I am, this is about me ripping them apart. Well, not literally, but let's have a bit of fun. Hold tight. Oh yeah, just look to the side of the video for the track names, thanks. It's sort of my little way of giving them a good old going over. I wasn't going to bang a sledgehammer on them or anything like that, don't worry about it. Think about it logically.

A belt drive turntable, you have the pitch control here. You move the pitch control, then you've got a belt that's wrapped around a motor, around the platter, so you've got a certain amount of delay in between you moving that pitch control and all the gubbins inside realising, scratching its head thinking, oh we've got to do something now, as opposed to a direct drive turntable whereby you move the pitch control and the platter does exactly what it's supposed to do. New enough exactly at the same time, but the trouble is some, even that you've got some direct drive turntables out there that aren't that good. Now this is my own professional opinion, however good or bad it is, I don't really give a monkey's to be quite honest, but I've been mixing for quite a while and I like the feel of this. When you move it down, the platter slows down. When you speed it up, the platter speeds up. I can't personally see any delay. I don't think it's bad. So there you go, I quite like it. Practice and enjoy.
