Yeah but then you're running decks in mono. :(

That's the best advice that someone can give to use external mixing
period

I use the table in normal mode and MIDI, 2 Deck in MIDI and 2 deck with my sound card
and it's good .

Not to sure I agree!
I can use a mixtrack and still pay just as much attention to the crowd as if I were using vinyls..
PROBABLY even more time to the crowd because i wouldn't have to dig for vinyls, or even CDs using CDJs.

a lot of people don't realize that it's not the gear that takes the DJs attention off the crowd ..its the DJ themselves

IMO the reason I choose a Club mixer is for its feel.
Compare a Denon/Pioneer/Xone/Ecler mixer to the S4 and you will instantly notice how toy-like the S4 feels.
The extra money for a club mixer is well worth it!

He's talking about the position the DJ will have on stage. The mixer will be dead centre while empty table space for a controller will be off to the side normally.

I see!!
valid point.

I'm completely with you about the feel of the mixer though dude! I love my Ecler :)

Of course the sound quality is better with vinyl and classique mixer , But ,Some prefer the controller for their flexibility, just to have a good sound card and good mp3. for me all these preferences and I really like the controller

This is complete BULLSHIT.
It may sound nicer according to your tastes but in no way is the quality higher.
