I'm about to pick one up 2morrow... Not feeling the looks of the pt01... Is there a sound quality diff between the 2? (not talking about the built-in speakers) |

The usb feature on the pt-01usb is nice, I have a Vestax though and I like it for what it needs to do which is help sniff out vinyl. |

I dont think there is any noticable sound quality difference between those two. Vestax's looks is much better so If you have enough cash, go get it! |

The handy trax and pt-01 can use a wall adapter or batteries for power. The sound quality should be the same on both machines I just like the look of the vestax and found one new for $98 on amazon.com. |

word. respect for the replies... i getting one brand new for 115... just sold off my table and i'll be using the vestax for sampling now... i hope it works out for me and i don't get annoyed at the quality of sound compared to my old table.... euclid can u speak on that? will it sound like shit or can i make sum dope beats. i like it cuz its small and it'll fit on my table nicely... i also sample my drums off computer so i wont be losing any quality there... and drums i feel need to sound the nicest of all |

Yo that CM-02 is crazy. $500 dang. You know what they say with samplers- doodoo in doodoo out. The Handytrax is fine for grabbing samples. A lot of things people don't do is: Clean the record with a soft cloth & some water if it's filthy, and keep good care of the needle when you use it. I wouldn't scratch with it. You have a line level out so no need to go through a mixer- just str8 to SP. Happy digging! |

Handcancel pretty much said it all, the quality is fine for sampling and getting a line level signal is great. I've scratched on it for a little but I used a crappy old $1 bin record and I wouldn't recommend it unless you plan on replacing the needle all the time and killing the grooves on your wax. There's a warning in the box that tells you not to scratch with it so of course I had to try it since I like to try anything I told I shouldn't do.

Thanks man... well somewhat worked out... the sound is kinda dull...especially in mono... but ive noticed that it sounds a lot better using the "enhancer" effect when sampling so I'm gonna try that for the next beat |
