Hello, I have been dying to ask about beat-matching using an xl-7 and decks. I sold my 1200s in order to pay for the xl-7 (I know, how could I? They were old but mint and I got top dollar on eBay). Don't worry I didn't sell the vinyl. Can you effectively match the beat of the record using that Red Sound Microsync device you mentioned with your xx-7? I found that a Numark beatkeeper, which rounds to the nearest whole beat per minute, is virtually useless for beatmatching two records. How does the xx-7 manage the sync if the Red Sound carries a decimal point? Thanks a bunch for your thoughts on this!!!! erik_magrini@... wrote:Hmm, I'm going to disagree slightly. I use my XL-7 with my tables all the time (synced via a Red Sound Microsync) and they sound way different! Mostly it's just the fact that the XL-7 hasn't gone through many layers of compression like the tune on vinyl has, so it sounds "bigger" (and boomier unfortunately) if you turn it up to compete with the levels of the tables. I personally plan on getting a good EQ and compressor to sort this out in the future, make them sound more 'seemless' when going from one to the other. As it stands now, you can always hear the difference... Props to the mc909 for adding the 3 band compressor to address to very issue. rEalm Something must have been wrong with the tables then, either that or the PA had more power. The raw output of XL/MP sound good but they still don't compare to a properly produced record. To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: xl7-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com Your use of Yahoo!
