    Vestax PCV-275

    I've been playing with my new mixer for a couple weeks now & its so mint! Only £130 too! A massive step up from the old Behringer VMX100

    The kill switches are awesome, I can make my mixes so much smoother now. Just waiting for some jack/phono converters to come in the post so I can loop my effects unit :wiggle: Only thing wrong at the moment is that my cue level meter always seems to be much lower than the master levels. Anyone else got one of these and know about this?

    I got a PMC-07 Pro which is a similar setup, but with total eq kills and no kill switches, plus built-in filter effects :D

    Try using the gains more than the master volume to increase the volume, works for me :)

    i've got a PVC-275... love the build quality of the vestax mixers!

    never had a problems with the levels, as long as they're matched in the headphones

    actyually you have a PMC-37 Pro :lol:

    Levelling the gains with the master are the key to getting the cue and master levels matched on the 275

    Used to love leaving the kill switches on when your mate goes on after you and then panics when the track doesnt sound right :lol:

    used the pmc-55 in the trades, awesome mixer, shame it's been mashed by an absolute monkey... they've replaced the faders in there at least three times (all of them :lol: )

    beware of the terrible pre (or is it post??)-fade EQ on that....ie...you cant hear the changes in bass/mids/his in your headphones

    love to know why they did that, stupid feature.
