Can't comment on the reliability of the VocoPro player, since I've only used it in one gig, have owned it only a couple of weeks


Frank, what model is the vocopro unit you are using? I want some feedback on the DVG808k because I'm thinking it would suit my needs, but I'm scared of vocopro, kind of hearing the stuff isn't very reliable. My JVC 303 is on the fritz!!!

My biggest gripe regarding VocoPro players is their tendancy to garble the graphics. They are not very forgiving when it comes to loading a scratched disc. The audio may play, but once the garbling starts there is no recovery. They also are priced less competively than other players.

Once I hook up a video switch, I can put singers back to back with no interlude delay when it's busy at the end of the night.


Regarding the CDN25+G and video connection. It is my understanding from reading this that the unit has a seperate RCA composite video out for each of the decks right? If that is the case what would prevent you from using a simple RCA Y style splitter and go straight into the singers TV monitor, thus eliminating the need for a switch? When either deck is playing the video signal would be reaching it's destination wouldn't it?

Help! I'm confused!! Cause I'm really thinking of getting one of these babies for myself to replace my broken down old JVC. If fact when using my JVC 303 I have used a RCA Y style splitter right out of the back of the unit and feed the singers tv and also a tv for the audience to read along with the lyrics. One player two tv's. Couldn't you do something similar regarding the Numark?

It would work with 1 side, but not both. It has a separate video out for each side - kind of like two separate players in 1. If you run them to an A/B switch first then split the signal after the switch it should work ok - you may experience a slight video loss, but probably not enough to notice.

BJ the DJ...

I tried splitting the video signal on the Numark with a Y-cord... A guy that was the first one that attempted to sell me the unit (I didn't buy it from him) told me that it could be done... that the video signal would only come out of the machine that's playing... well... that's not the way it is... I was actually getting a double signal on the TV... two signals at a time on the TV... so I took care of it with a Video Switch from Radio Shack. Now I can switch amongst the two sides of the Numark and the single tray VocoPro.

That's what I thought would happen, but since I don't own the Numark unit I did not comment on using a "Y" cable.
I am really considering purchasing the Numark. It seems that most that own it are pretty much satisfied. If only Numark would add a key changer to the unit.
