The Vestax PMC Pro series were perhaps the most iconic scratch mixers of all time. They distinguished themselves from the earlier PMC range by using VCA circuitry. Or at least some of them did.

- Released : 2002 or earlier (earliest mention on vestax site, also service manual date)
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (2SK30A-GR)
- Faders : PCV
- Power supply : 15V DC
- Service Manual : File:PMC-05PRO2.pdf
PMC-05ProIII
- Released : 2004 or earlier (earliest mention on vestax site)
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (probably 2SK30A-GR)
- Faders : PCV

Also has an effects loop
PMC-05ProSL
Based on the PMC-05PROIII
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (probably 2SK30A-GR)
- Faders : PCV

PMC-05ProIIIVCA
- Released : 2005 or earlier (earliest mention on vestax site)
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (probably 2SK117Y)
- Faders : PCV
- Power supply : 14V AC
- Service manual : [1]
PMC-05ProSLVCA
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (probably 2SK117Y)
- Faders : PCV
- Power supply : 14V AC
PMC-05ProIIIDX
- Released : 2009 or earlier (That's when skratchworx reviewed it)
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (probably 2SK117Y)
- Faders : PCV
- Power supply : 14V AC
PMC-05ProIV
Digital mixing, CF-X2 Crossfader, IF-PCV Line Faders, USB MIDI control

- Released : 1998 (according to the book Groove Music)
- Mixer Circuit : Optocoupler-based VCA
- Faders : ALPS
- Power supply : 15V DC
PMC-06T
Not technically in the pro range - uses a dual-rail supply like the 07, and doesn't actually use a VCA at all so presumably wasn't great for scratching
- Released : 1998 (service manual date)
- Mixer Circuit : Ground Pulldown
- Faders : ALPS?
- Power supply : 12V AC
- Service Manual : File:Vss-pmc-06t.pdf
PMC-06ProA
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (2SK30A-GR)
- Faders : PCV
- Power supply : 15V DC
PMC-06ProVCA
- Released : 2004 (according to service manual)
- Mixer Circuit : JFET VCA (2SK117Y)
- Faders : PCV
- Power supply : 14V AC
- Service Manual : [2]
