Seventh Generation Legend

At the heart of the SL 1210 Mk7 is its direct drive motor system, which offers instant start-up and precise speed control. This allows DJs to quickly cue and scratch their vinyl records with utmost accuracy, without the delays or inaccuracies associated with belt-driven turntables. The direct drive system also provides consistent torque, ensuring stable and reliable playback even in demanding DJ performances.

The turntable features a high-torque motor, which delivers exceptional rotational power, making it suitable for scratching and mixing. It maintains a consistent speed of 33-1/3 and 45 RPM, allowing DJs to seamlessly transition between different record formats without the need for manual adjustments.

Technics has paid attention to detail when it comes to reducing unwanted vibrations and resonance. The SL 1210 Mk7 employs a multi-layered construction with a high-rigidity cabinet and a heavy aluminium die-cast platter. This combination minimises resonance and eliminates feedback, resulting in enhanced audio clarity and precise tracking.

Additionally, the SL 1210 Mk7 offers a range of DJ-friendly features. It includes a pitch control with selectable ranges, allowing fine adjustments to the playback speed for beat matching and creative mixing. The turntable also features a reverse play function, adjustable brake speed, and a detachable power and audio cable, providing flexibility for various setups.
