This was my first mixer (2nd hand)

And I had plastic belt drive decks.

Lasted me about ten years until I got Technics.

Edit: maybe was a slightly different version as don’t remember having echo on it.

I had the old belt drives as well, many frustrating hrs learning to beat mix on them, I remember a 12" copy of Cheek ‘Sunshine People’ getting shattered into umpteen pieces after I ripped it off the deck and frisbeed it against my bedroom wall after failing to get it in sync with another track for what felt like the millionth time :see_no_evil:

It’s kind of genius how he’s turned the whole thing to his advantage. Evil, but genius.

i had the audio technica (aka “atus” ugh) version of that after graduating from the radio shack models.

mind looked like the exact same thing, only without the echo. there had to be a contract manufacturer of those, willing to slap echos and different badging on them depending on the order.

it lasted a good long time but it had terrible crosstalk in the very high frequencies, and could pick up multiple christian AM radio stations without issue depending on how you oriented it in your space. if you were playing wax trax-style industrio dance, that was a feature, not a bug.
