I currently have an Allen & Heath Xone:4D. I was thinking of upgrading to a XoneB4
Reasons for the upgrade is that I've now had my 4D since 2008,
it's requiring maintenance that analogue equipment needs.
last time I was cleaning the faders during a live online set (http://www.chew.tv/djrickdawson)
(it seems to be better later on in sets, and occasionally the faders need isopropyl alcohol spraying into to keep going.
I'm also attempting to go beyond the usual basic mixing/blending of one track to the next at the ends of tracks.
I've been using traktor, and since added over time some controllers to also use Ableton Live in addition to Traktor, Original LaunchPad (upgraded to LaunchPad Pro)
I play pure uplifting trance, and I'm looking at the techniques that techno DJs use and getting them to work with sets.
so I was thinking the DB4 as a replacement to my aging 4D
I don't like the build quality of other mixers such as pioneer (they feel different)
I think the features of the DB4 would be useful for me in a set.
Found one place in the uk selling it for £1440.00 (down from £1679.00)
then another place £1607.70
the average going price seems to be £1679.00
is the DB4 still worth it?
