So. I have found myself with a budget of £400 to get a great setup.
I already have a padKontrol which i use for cue points and a m-audio fast track for audio I/O. Im looking for a solution to give me control of transport, mixing and effects.
There are several things i have to consider. Firstly i'm going to university come october, so portability is an issue. Secondly i'm going to be (hopefully) using this in a club environment.
I have two ideas so far.
Option 1:
External mixer, such as the Reloop RMX20 BlackFire Edition
Midi controller for effects and transport, im thinking of the new faderfox DX3 or a pair of EKS XP5's
The idea being, when i go to clubs i will use their mixer.
Option 2:
Get the much tried and tested Vestax VCI-100.
Very portable and great for home use. But when i get into the club i face a choice of internal mixing mode or hooking up to their mixer for the benefits of external mixing, but have a crossfader and two volume faders that are sitting there unused.
Delicious decisions....
What would be better, or can anyone think of something completely different that would suit me?
Thanks, Dups.
