    3. Mixxx is still unproven freeware with high risk of problems. I wish it works best but I won't get the 23c just to test it.

    I'd say my point is valid - Xone 23c is pretty much useless for dvs.
    So...to sum it up: it's mixers fault that DVS software is too expensive or if it's free - it unreliable/hasn't got mappable deck gains. Gotcha.

    It's "mixers fault" that it doesn't DVS work in standard expected manner WITH the software tailored for it (Cross LE works only with this mixer). If fixing that issue requires buying another software that costs as much or some freeware of doubtful quality - I'd say yes IT IS USELESS for DVS. I'm buying it with Cross LE and I expect it to work WITH IT, without any hidden tricks, I'm not supposed to look elsewhere and finish the A&H engineers unfinished designs. Or I should forgive this nonsense because I'm getting the "legendary A&H filter and sound quality"?

    Look around. This is not a A&H forum. We don't give a flying f***. We like good rants, reasonably priced gear and creative workarounds.

    I think you were just expecting too much from a 350€ mixer.

    I was expecting to get just what is advertised - a normal dvs functionality, nothing more. They sell a car without breaks. And no matter the price it's A&H, not a Behringer, so this type of tricks are shameful. Interestingly there's not a single user anywhere on the net that uses this mixer in dvs mode with Cross LE without confusion regarding the gain. Until such one shows up it is safe to say DO NOT BUY THIS MIXER IF YOU INTEND TO DVS USE IT WITH THE SUPPLIED SOFTWARE.
