Limited Edition QBert Signature Turntable from Vestax January 25, 2004
Vestax is offering the QFO,
a circular turntable with an integrated 2-channel mixer that was designed in collaboration with performance DJ QBert and Thudrumble's Yoga Frog. This new turntable/mixer provides DJs with a convenient, all-in-one scratch DJ tool for performance
or practice.
The QFO's high-torque turntable offers an ASTS (Anti-Skipping Tonearm System) tone arm and pitch control with multiple variations to select from. Also included are two start and stop buttons, which allow the user to create percussive start/stop moves with either hand.
Each channel of the mixer section has a 2-band EQ, and a phono and input switch, allowing users to control the turntable on one channel and a CD player or other external source on the other. Additional mixer features include crossfader curve control, crossfader reverse, and input fader curve and reverse.
San Francisco-based turntablist legend QBert has been a proponent of DJ culture since the mid-1980s. QBert's talents have been recognized with numerous accolades, including four consecutive Disco Mixing Club (DMC) USA and World Champion titles, which led to his selection as a judge in this esteemed competition. In 1998, DMC also awarded QBert a place in its Hall of Fame. For more information, visit their web site at www.vestax.com. |
