A truly versatile DJ mixer that offers the best of both worlds - analogue and digital. Engineered by Allen & Heath, featuring their excellent Xone pre-amps and filter from the 92/96 series, but in a form factor that makes it similar to Pioneer's DJM.
The sound is fantastic, and an all analogue path. However, it can also act as a 10/in and 10/out soundcard which is a powerful feature and something I use a lot. This makes it excellent for someone who is both a DJ and a producer, and great for live performances connected to a computer, or just seamless DVS.
The effects are very good sounding but also quite subtle - don't expect the massive FX sounds of the DJM series. There is a send built in and you can choose to use it pre- or post fader which is a nice bonus.
The one feature I'm missing is the mono-switch that can be found on some Pioneer mixers. You are stuck with stereo and it would have been nice to have the option to toggle that on the mixer.
All-in-all, one of the best music products I've ever bought and the heart of my studio.
