[JaySoDef]

i bought a used vestax PMC-03A Mixer for around $110 but i also have a new numark x9 im into scratching and turntablism so which mixer should i use or should i practice on both or which mixer is better for scratching?

the vestax will be better for turntablism.

Surely its whatever you find easier to scratch on, regardless of which is the better mixer.

For scratching you need a very sharp Crossfader curve and it must be smooth and light. the DJM-800 and Xone 92 faders are the don so get a feel on one of those if you can and make your mind from there.

Just looked at both mixers but i'd say the Numark will be better. Adjust the CF Slope on the front all the way clockwise if you havent already

Then happy scratching!

but if your talkin turntablism, then a 2 channel mixer is what you need. 3 channel will be a ball ache.

if your talkin mixin with a bit of scratchin. stick to ya newmark.
