The keyboards are for the screens on the wall (each one is associated with a workstation machine for music or generic use)
The design is fully ergonomic and the keyboards do not affect the slot in/out loading of the CDJs as the slot loading mechanism is just a few milimeters higher than the keyboards height, so everything is cool and calculated to work precisely
Yup, I managed to find it on ebay for $130.00... simply amazing find. It was missing 3 knobs and 1 slider which cost me an astounding $24 via Roland of NA. No crackling, popping, bleeding, etc.. the FX are circa 1990 but it's all good, I'm not complaining at all.
I would be interested into buing one only for the historical value. This is a Hall Of Fame machine.
Congrats, you got a superdeal for a machine that will worth a lot in a few years if it is still in mint condition...
I wish I was that lucky with getting one at such a price too (there is only one unit in demo condition at the Greek distributor of Roland in Greece, who is located in Patra, who is selling it for the price of 2600 Euros, which is more than insane, even for a museum historical value item)
i'll take some better photos of it, but this thing is 9/10 easy.
3 people (max) play on this 1 - 2 times a month. It literally sits in my studio collecting dust and maybe pushing some choons when I feel like rocking out. It doesn't go to "the club" or anything like that... those days are over. ha.
alright, so i got it all hooked up and some kind of arranged today. it's not that tidy yet, and i'm especially unhappy with the lots of cables that are just in the way of everything, but it's working, and i'm able to record sets and all on it
feature list:
13" macbook pro running traktor scratch pro
audio 8 dj soundcard
2x technics sl-1200 mk2 (for controlling decks a & b)
vestax pmc-50a mixer
numark stealth control (for controlling decks c & d)
good old sennheiser hd25 headphones
the furniture is from ikea... i like it very much, only the mixer is a little too big to fit onto it nicely. my old one was a little smaller, and fit in perfectly, but i had to replace it in favor of four-channel-mixing
i also take this setup out with me when i go djing in clubs etc. and what i like about it, is that it's very flexible. you can have your minimal setup, controlling two decks with the stealth control, you can have a classic turntable setup controlling two decks, and you can have the full-featured four-channel killer setup. of course the latter is my preferred option

That's what I still use. Saving for a Xone 92 (pricey RAWR!). You definitely lucked out on the cost. I paid around $700.00 for mine when they first came out. They tried to get me for almost $1,000.00, at first, but it was a floor model with a few missing knobs. So, I bitched & moaned 'till they dropped the initial price. Plus, I snagged the needed knobs from a Roland 505 they had in the store.
