Make Your Portablism Setup Louder With the Alesis TransActive Wireless 2 Speaker
After participating in a portablism jam session a while back, Mojaxx set out to find a way to make his setup louder. What he discovered was the Alesis TransActive Wireless 2, a rechargeable PA system that’s designed for on-the-go use.
Watch his review of the speaker on this week’s Tips and Tricks.

Review: Scratch Toys Sound Plate for Numark PT01 Scratch Portable Turntable
Mojaxx has returned with another portablism review, this time looking at the Scratch Toys Sound Plate for the Numark PT01 Scratch.
The easy-to-install upgrade adds Bluetooth support, a micro SD port, and an FM tuner to the leading portable turntable on the market. “It transforms the Numark PT01 Scratch into a totally different device,” Mojaxx says. “I absolutely love this product.”
He also looks at DC 5V to DC 12V converter cables, which enable DJs to run their PT01 off of a UBS power bank.
Easy Modifications for the Numark PT01 Turntable
Portablists are known for developing elaborate modifications for their turntables. However, there are companies that make more accessible solutions.
Hungary-based Bihari Designs is one of them. Their modifications for the Numark PT01 turntable can be fitted, without soldering, by anyone who can hold a screwdriver.
Mojaxx reviews their full range of products on this week’s Tips and Tricks episode. He also looks at a simple but effective platter stabilizer from Stokyo.

Review: Jesse Dean Designs JDDX2RS Fader
Mojaxx has reviewed the Jesse Dean Designs JDDX2RS fader for a special episode of Tips and Tricks. Unlike Jesse Dean’s external JDDX2R fader, which works with all portable setups, the JDDX2RS is designed specifically for the Numark PT01 Scratch turntable.
