    I have been looking at one of these too. I can't decide whether I want to go full modular, or use an all-in-one plus one or modular controllers (e.g., X1, F1).

    I mainly need only 2 channels as I either A) mix only 2 decks or B) mix mainly with 2 decks and use my F1 for remix decks and it has its own faders and filter knobs. 2 channels would limit ability to EQ for the 3rd and 4th decks...but I find that I don't need EQs for the Decks C & D as much as I tend to mix with the faders and filters for those decks anyway.

    So, an MC3000 or a Kontrol S2 may work for you. The MC3000 has dedicated filter and gain knobs (unlike the S2)...build quality, by all accounts, seems pretty good though some people have reported problems with buttons getting stuck when you press them.

    I may likely pick up one of these eventually. The HID Traktor integration of the S2 is nice, but the jogwheels seem off to me, and I really like having a dedicated filter knob plus I don't mind making my own mappings for controllers.

    Anyone own an MC3000 care to comment?

    I create one other topic about this some days ago:

    http://forum.djtechtools.com/showthread.php?t=58336

    I decide to get MC3000, I think is the best option under $600.

    But if u can spend $800, so GET MC6000, this one is perfect.

    I am also almost settled on the MC3000...just feel like it will be better for me than the S2...

    NOT true. It is classified as a 2 channel mixer with optional 4 deck control. " Physical channels only for sound, 2 external sound inputs that do NOT pass through the 2 mixer channels, but have a separate volume control for both. Each of the two channels can (alternately) control two decks: A/B & C/D, but make no mistake. This is a TWO channel mixer.

    The MC3000 is a MIDI controller with a basic passthrough function. It is not classified as a mixer.
