The Technics SLDZ1200 CD player is one fantastic machine!
Features on the SLDZ1200 include a rotating direct drive platter, MP3 playback, SD card playback, SD card memory for loop and cue points, sampler and digital output.

The SLDZ1200 features the cool (if not cooler) looks of the classic turntable as well as a familiar layout like the start / stop switch, pitch fader and of course the platter design.

Pitch range is selectable between 8 / 16 / 33 and 50% there is now the ever popular pitch lock (also known as master tempo or key lock) as well as a pitch reset to switch off the fader all together.

Motor off / free wheel switches off the motor but still lets you manipulate the sound using the platter.

The 4 cue pads give you instant access to as many points on the CD. The sample pads can hold 4 individual samples, each of which can be trimmed and looped. Both cue and sample points can be stored on the internal memory or on the SD card.

The reverse toggle switch is chunky and does just that to the platter with a realistic slight lag in time as the motor change direction, there is a handy 'instant change' switch if you want to the sound to reverse immediately.

Then there are the built in effects: First is the Vinyl Simulation effect which is just a range of 8 different EQ and sound settings for the audio, inclding an 'old radio' effect and 'telephone'. The Dynamic FX is the where the real fun starts which has : One Way - only scratches when the platter is moved forward, TT Dist : Distortion - controlled by platter movement, TT Wah effect -Controlled by platter movement, Air Hammer: chopping or cutting effect, TT Pan : Audio panning from left to right with platter movment, Auto pan, Ring - speed can be controlled by platter.

On top of the platter is the special slipmat with grooves etched into it to give a feel of a record. The movement of this mat controls the sound. In the middle of the platter is the hard to miss display with a small cluster of buttons.

These buttons control the real time looping and re-looping as well as switching the display into its' various modes as well as the track and shuttle search buttons.

SD card not included

hi all, i recently bought one of these and one pioneer CDJ1000 mke, the reasoning behind being to learn to use more than just technics or just pioneers as you never know what equipment you may have to use. I have found the pioneer to be vastly superior, the control you have over the jogwheel is outstanding. Also the display of the track you are playing is helpful with the pioneer AND for some reason (maybe it is just me) the technics does not always swallow the CD on the 1st attempt! sometimes I wish I had bought me 2 pioneers, they are slightly more expensive but I think they are worth it
