I remember reading about how hardcore-jungle guys in the early 90s would break open their decks and make the pitch + and - 20 or something like that. obviously makes it much harder to pinpoint the beatmatch, and you also run the risk or permanently fucking up the calibration. i am happy with mine the way they are .. though a reverse switch might be cool |

I've currently got my decks pitched so that they're a little bit less than +/- 8%... which gives me a bit less room to play with, but makes them a bit more precise. In any case, it's worth knowing how to do the pitch mod - if only so that you can calibrate your decks and match them. |
