...yup, that was one of the attractions to be honest, especially since the price I paid for the DB4 was not much more than a Xone 92 and an Audio 10, considerably less spaghetti in the studio too :)

..pretty quiet on the club gig front these days so not too much of an issue, next party I'm playing is for a friend (on an amazing homemade system), where I'm the only DJ alongside a few bands, so not a problem to take this setup along with me.
To be honest, in a club scenario, not sure which route I'd go, not really realistic to take your own mixer to a gig where other DJ's are performing... I guess in an ideal world I'd take the X1's and have something like an Audio 10 to run through the house mixer, but then one of the reasons I bought the DB4 was so I wouldn't need to do the A10 thing :)
..first live mix recorded thru the DB4 for anyone who's interested ;)

I wish I could afford that mixer but I'm happy with my Dn X1600. Did you look at the K2's before you got the X1's I had the the X1's but the K2's with the built in soundcards made it a nice option to really switch up my setup. I think I want to go check out the DB4 and the Db2

..to be honest, went for the X1's because I'd owned a Mk1 a while back and knew what I was getting, functionality-wise
Have watched some of the K2 tutorials etc. online and they do look great, if not a bit more involved, not sure I'd have any need for latching layers etc. enough buttons to be getting on with here already :)
Whats so good about that there is no platter to mess with? depends what you use it for i suppose.
My S4 is the best purchase i have ever made, having gone from vinyl to cds to a controller i think i'm here to stay... i love how portable it is and that i can easily hook up technics or CDJs if need be. win win.
I was totally happy with my xone:3d, didn't even desire another mixer.. .then my friend left his db2 at my house for a few days..
Clean! Like the setup.
