Hi there,
Newbie to the forum (Hi all!) I've been reading a few mixer comparison threads on here and thought I'd post my dilemma - in the hope that someone could throw a bit of advice my way.
I've recently got back into using turntables (I used to just use VDJ with an external mixer to mess around). I'm looking for a 4 channel mixer with an internal soundcard for DVS/Timecode support. I've been buying a fair bit of vinyl so I want the mixer to be stand alone with some decent effects with the ability to also use traktor/Serato and map functions to the mixer (I've never done this). I play techno.
I've not got a lot of cash, I'm looking at around the £500 quid mark unless I save more. I've seen the Allen & Heath DB2 at around this price and also the Dennon DX1600/1700. A pioneer is out of my price range at present for what I'd want (850/900 etc). I currently have a Xone 23. I don't mind it but I just find it a bit lacking, effects wise and I don't like the way the rotarys easily come off and the crossfader has far too much nothingness each side of the bite.
So... Do the Dennon's still stack up and work with Traktor? I've got a 64bit windows lappy that I would be using. What is the fader like on the DB2? Is it generally a decent mixer? Any other suggestions what I could look at?
Any help greatly appreciated...
