Tech Turntabalism -- Reloop RP-8000 Turntable: the new RP-8000 looks and feels like a Technics SL 1210, but is stuffed with digital DJ trickery. The hybrid quartz-driven, direct-drive turntable boasts digital pitch control with an LCD display, and speed adjustable start/stop -- from 0.2 seconds to six seconds. It can also communicate with any midi-compatible software, so you can tee up hot cues, load up the eight drum-pads and play loops all from the one deck.
Cost: £585.
