Audioline MDEX3

[Im a Marty]

Hey all, i'm a newbie wannabe DJ, i thought i'd start out on some basic equipment, what do people think of the Audioline MDEX3??




Will need some speakers and headphones to go with that I assume.... looking forward to your replies :D

All in one kits are not the way to go, seriously. First look around the forums herehttp://forum.ah.fm/equipment/3534-post-pictures-your-equipment.html to see what people are using. Your gonna need 2 input sources(turntables or CDJs), a mixer(2 or 4 channel depending on what you're looking at in the long run(allen&heath & pioneer make good mixers)) then you are going to need some DJ heaphones(there's a headphone thread in this section also) and some speakers.
Now seeing as you are new all this stuff may not make any sense to you. I STRONGLY suggest you go see this guy YouTube - ellaskins's Channel and go visit his website https://www.djtutor.com/dj_tutorials...me=first_setup
he will teach you pretty much everything you need to know.

Hey Apocalypse Now, thanks for the reply, I actually do understand what you're saying, I was going to go the CDJ way but unfortunately its out of my budget at the moment.... I will check out the youtube link, looks very interesting indeed, thanks again :D

Well i finally got this deck, and its a beauty, although I agree its not for pro use, but its not bad for a bedroom DJ.

When i get some extra cash i'll be upgrading :D

hi! why dont u post some pics or vid of you using the mdex3..im also thnking bout the same product..tnx!;)

[Im a Marty]

Hey Halley, I will post some pics when I get my digital camera back as i lent it to a mate..... Probably in a couple of weeks i'll get the missus to take some snapshots! :D

Yeah its good for beginners, and its heaps of fun :D

[Halley]

tnx! il w8 for d pics..'cause i cant find any other pics but one..lol! btw,does the mdex can be connectd to your laptop?

[Im a Marty]

Its got a line in, so you don't have to use the already feature full inputs... just flick the switch and it uses an external input so yeah i think a laptop can go into it, although not sure Serato Live would work with it....

[Halley]

tnx mate!!;)

[Halley]

hey marty, ive already seen the mdex3, but how will you connect the rca's at the back? cause the mixer dosn't work and i dont know why

[Im a Marty]

Hey Halley, connect the RCA to the AMP plugs at the back.... and put them through the input of a HIFI system. I actually have mine plugged into my PC coming through the PC stereo.... also make sure you turn up the gain on all the knobs as they would be turned down by default.

Hope that helps

het mate look good hows the bmp counter is it accurate of dogey

[Im a Marty]

When I got it i thought it was going to be an auto beat counter, it actually has a manual touch button that you tap to the beat, so....not so great in my eyes there.
