MF's vs Kontrol X1 MK2 (Help)

Hello All:

I am debating getting either two Kontrol X1 MK2's or two Midi Fighter Spectra's as decks. I would already have a Midi Fighter Pro so you could argue that I don't need another two, but I love midi fighters. I just wanted everyone's opinions because I could really go either way but I was leaning towards the MF Spectra's.

THANKS

Well... First tell me how you use your MF Pro when playing your sets. Or do you want to go the Ean route and just have MF's, X1's, and a mixer... no controller or turntables? Need more infoz

I like the X1 mk2 a lot. I especially like the touchstrip and phase meters. The Felix setup is a really good way to go.

Go the EAN way without any turntables or CDJ's and I would map each of the spectra's to play, sync, flux, hot cues, etc.

I was gonna do the Felix setup with the to X1's and the Z2. Thanks for responding you are very inspiring to me :)

I've been thinking about the Felix set-up or similar, was going to get an DJM-850 with the X1s. Don't want a USB hub though! Is the
Z2 the mixer that will let me avoid a hub. Use a MacBook, so it's two ports only...

The Z2 has a built-in hub. You will need a hub of some sort to use 3 devices.

Thanks, I suspected it was inevitable :crying:

I am going the felix way with a DB2 and two X1's. I think this is a very good setup. I might even pick up one of the CMD-MM1's for a portable setup. THe DB2 is crazy, but like most lazy people, a bitch to carry with me. An MM-1 with two X1's would be really great as well for 4 deck mixing.

Now to find a buyer for my two Denon DN-S3700's

I'm planning on the same set-up with db2, and two x1s. Thinking about either a midi fighter or a F1 for hot-cues/remix decks.
But would love to hear about how you think the set up are, after trying it!
