Replacement Stylus for Stanton STR8-100

Hey, I've just won my first set of decks on eBay, a pair of Stanton STR8-100's. The seller has informed me one of the decks needs a replacement stylus. As I'm new to this, I'm not sure what I need to buy. Do I search for Stanton Stylus? Stanton Cartridge? And how do I know which will fit my deck? Ch...

Re: What cables do I need?

Actually is that cable for going direct from laptop to monitors? I didn't think you could do that? I thought it had to pass through the mixer.

Anybody have any ideas? How about just mixers in general as I don't think theres anything special about this one?
I'm new to mixing so any advice appreciated!

Re: Playing own produced tunes live

I believe they actually sync their 3 laptops together (magnetic man) and each of them are using some sort of automap tech (forgot witch one? maybe it was the novation... can't really remember though....) and they do on-the fly edits and what not? I can't remember if it was an interview or a youtube...

Re: Best and worst dubstep tune of all time, and explain why

But there is one producer that I really dislike (not goin to say hate cause thats fairly harsh but I do mean dislike a hell of a lot) and i'm surprised that he actually hasn't been hurled abuse at by people here a lot and that person is Borgore. His music is awful, nonsense that I can't barely even...

Playing own produced tunes live

This is a really simple question, but when dubstep producers are playing their tunes to a live crowd using decks/mixer, are they simply mixing the tunes like any other DJ would, or is there something more technical going on?
