Dave - I wasn't referring to regularly adjusting using the pin - I was only talking for minute changes - the problem with using the pitch slider on belts, is that you have to move the pitch further out and then back again, to compensate for the belt pick up and consequent delay.

Im actually shocked at how cheap some of the classics are... I was expecting 92/93 era tunes to be 20+ quid.. This is a bargain

thats not the original.. the original had the touch on the flip, not truly one.

infact, for a repress... thats expensive... most tunes i buy are Ł4.75 INC vat

imagine of some one had two dubs, one of each of those tunes, cut direct froma dat from ant miles @ RAM ..... imagne how much they would be worth!

rich, i only ever play dubs untill the tune is promo'd / released. And only ever cut the sickest tunes to plate... at Ł35 - 40 a pop... it gets expensive!

for example.. there s atune called tarantula by pendulum... caned that on plate over 30 - 40 times... starting to jump now, but ive the release copy now as the dat was given to me 2 months ago.. job done!

no. a repress is a repress of an old tune....

a plate.. is something you eat your dinner off

That's a cracking tune!

Who's giving you the DAT copies? When I was playing semi seriously, it was always difficult to get into that "inner circle" of proper pre-release stuff, but I suppose yuo have to be seen to be playing out regularly.

Repress - Just a re-released record.

Dubplate - A metal or acetate dub wears out after 40 plays or so

Promo - A way to hype up a normal record!

Dave if you know the names of the tunes after let me know. I am unfortunate enough to know peeps in the d 'n' b world

Westy - Dave's not quite correct.

If you're ringing Blackmarket, ask if they have anything in "in a dubplate style" -you're more likely to get a straight answer that way
