Vestax Mixers are some of the most preferred horizontal club, or vertical battle, DJ mixers on the market. This company was formally known as Shiino Musical Instruments Corporation, then Shiino Vesta FIRE Corporation, and now the Vestax Corporation. Because of its rich history, versatile features and design, Vestax has become the manufacturer of choice for countless DJs.

The company’s trademark is simple functionality and a very clean design. There are a lot of quality DJ mixers from Vestax, such as the Vestax PMC-08 Pro, but the one that really stands out would be the PMC-05 PRO III. This DJ mixer is one of the simplest, and can really transform a DJ’s scratching and mixing abilities. To avoid any kind of embarrassment caused by accidently hitting the wrong buttons during performances, Vestax has very smartly reduced the number of knobs and buttons around the fader.

This product is designed with a focus on the company’s dedication to simplistic design and straightforward functionality. The PMC-05 PRO III also features a fader curve control, which allows for fast scratching. The programmes can also be reversed on the faders, which allows the turntables to be reprogrammable to the opposite channels. Then turntable 1 can become 2 and vice versa.

The CDR-07 is a rewritable scratch CD player/CD recorder from the renowned manufacturer Vestax. The CDR-07 allows for the recording of all types of sound and music to CDs. The CDR-07 also features a cue mode, sampler, tempo control, scratch mode, MP3 read, master tempo and many other built-in effects. The CDR performs dual functions, because it helps in both recording the songs or music for any DJ performance and also recording the entire DJ performance.

A wide range of connectivity options are available in the input/output section of this CD player/recorder. Immediate recording can be started by just plugging in the CD player, mic, turntable, guitar, cassette deck, or MP3 player into the input section. Any kind of analogue inputs on the Vestax CDR-07 Pro can be directly converted to digital signals without any noises or disturbances with the help of the digital output. Due to this factor it is very easy for DJs to record their analogue songs or music directly to the external digital device.

Long mixes and fine adjustments can all be achieved with the help of a fine fader that is equipped in CDR-07. It also features a selection for pitch range and supports a layering system, where you can easily layer a new sound or the next sound track over the current playing track. During live DJ performances or non-stop remixes, this system also allows for the numbering of tracks.
