I've had my Kontrol S4 since they were released, upgraded to TSP and used with my 1210s, a MF 3D and a launchpad. Even though it was a good setup I felt something was lacking.
I decided to go for a stand alone mixer and there are alot of choices out there. So after much deliberating I decided to go for a Pioneer DJM-T1.
Ordered it and it turned up yesterday. What a machine!
Everything about it just oozes quality and the layout for midi implementation is spot it. The sound quality is IMHO alot better than the S4 (It will only be used in external mixer mode) and I can just switch and play regular vinyl from scratch as and when I please. I always felt the sound was always lacking when trying to go through a live input on the S4 when playing vinyl.
I also love the faders, again IMHO better than anything I have used (I came from vinyl and analogue alongtime before I bought the S4).
For £550 it has to be the bargain of the century for mixers!
I have placed this on here as I have read several articles on whether to go for the Z2, T1 or Rane. Anyone that goes down the T1 route will not be dissappointed.
I have played with a Z2 and this is way better (IMO).
Anyone else having massive love for the DJM-T1?
