1. WHY DO SOME DJ’S USE ROTARY ”DIAL” FADERS AS OPPOSED TO SLIDE FADERS? Many house music DJ’s, particularly those who play the ”New York” style, prefer the rotary faders due to the precise level settings that result in a more natural feel to each beatmix. These DJ’s do not use the crossfader during every mix, but ”shape” the sound through the input levels. The rotary faders allow smoother blending of vocals during a mix, as the left to right motion of using two rotary faders is far more natural than the up and down movement of two ”standard” faders.

2. WHY IS THE R-1 SO EXPENSIVE? Constructing the R-1 Vestax uses the best circuitry to give a very natural, undistorted wide and deep sound. Vestax researched world-wide to find the best parts and components for the R-1. So all in all you have a real masterpiece for mixing. That is why we
use the term “R-1 Premium”.

3. CAN I USE A CROSSFADER WITH THE R-1? Yes, by purchasing the MCR-1 crossfader unit, you can add crossfader function, and extended monitoring.

4. IS THE R-1 OK FOR INSTALLATION? The R-1 is superb for installation Many night-clubs have heard an incredible improvement in the PA Sound by adding the R-1 to their system.
