Unfortunately my studio partner is a big guy - I'd go crazy if he actually touched me

But that's a phat set-up no doubt

I doubt I'd get any work done in there - I'd just be staring at all the pretty lights and design

Ive had the Jerker for 2 years now and before I got into computer music, all I did was mix and scratch, let me tell you that even the person with the heaviest hand would not wobble the Jerker. I only moved my tables to another desk because I figured it made more sense to have control surfaces at the mix position...so I think Ill buy another jerker...

I've never been happy with floor standing tables for my decks - is the Jerker stable enough for scratching/turntablism?

(I'm not holding my breath here - but maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised..)
i have a cement floor so rock solid decks, but nasty reflections..some carpet pad for my room is coming soon

Greetings from the big Jerker fan.

I was fall in love with the Jerker many years ago but only recently when I moved to my new place I bought it and I was happy like a kid when he got a new toy. I drove 500 km just to get him.

I'll post my Jerker set up as long I figured out how can I u/l pics.

Cheers,

Sven

thank you to this thread for making me aware another shelf could be purchased for the almighty jerker. Just went out and got it today and here is the new setup

probably still a tweak or two before it's ideal, but for now it's great

thanks for pointing this out... I have been wanting this for a while now but I guess I missed it since it's not under the "jerker" moniker.

here's the link:

http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s ... r=50086690

$10. Very, very exciting.
