    Layout is just not what I would expect from A&H. Very cluttered.... shame really, because I bet it sounds wonderful.

    Interesting to finally see it, I was also expecting a 4 channel serato mixer, so even after reading the link I still had it in my head that it supported Serato.

    No mention of that in the specs and no serato branding makes me think this is def not a serato mixer.

    And why would you have onboard looping etc when designing a DVS mixer?

    TBH I dont find this that cluttered (for A&H), there is def a lot going on on this mixer, but all the important controls are really chunky.

    EQ options are interesting, the staggered placement would take a bit of getting used to.

    Im not really sure who they are aiming at with this product, anybody who is that into looping is using a digital setup by now, from a club owners perspective this doesnt jump out as being worth the extra cash on a 62, and it will no doubt be well out of the price range of bedroom DJ's.

    Still pwns the zero4 though...

    Very nice mixer, I was hoping for something a little more however. TSP or Serato tie-in would have been brilliant. Couldn't you just map this to Traktor?

    I think It's design for TT & CDJ Player or something that not Expect on use Computer
    It's have STD.DJ Software function but they built-in it DB4
    Hmmm. It can grab 4 bar loops per Channel.....Hmmm...And QuadFX core

    ....May be nest year You'll see "DJ Mixer built in MacOS" LoL

    You really can't compare. I have a 402 and compared to my friend's Xone:32, it is atrocious.

    I'm disappointed that A&H thought they needed to move away from analogue. Their mixers have always sounded beautiful.
