Xone 92 vs Xone DB2

[Santos10]

a little off topic but does anyone know how to fix a little white noise coming thru my faders on my xone 92 when I push them up?

The only thing holding me back on the Xone:92 is the fact that i don't know how well the Ableton FX stack up when compared to the FX on the DB4. Anybody able to give opinions on this?

Ableton Live lets you use VSTs and (on Apple) Audio Units. If you're willing to pay for them, there are better effects available for the computer than any DJ mixer will ever have.

Call A&H tech support. They're actually helpful. Probably just need to clean them.

I realise that this is an old thread, but how do people use older Traktor soundcards with this? Being that if you switch from line to phono on say a Pioneer mixer with both phono and line inputs and an audio 8, you can mix vinyl as both inputs are plugged in? Of course I'm aware you can use 'direct thru' with the new Traktor soundcards, but what about the old ones? Something like this I assume would suffice?

id choose xone 92 or 4d over db2/db4 because I M O they sound better. Nothing wrong with db4/db2, they just dont sound analogue because they are digital.
Also if u like 4 band eq thats a plus.

I've got a xone 92 rotary. It's the sex to mix on this. Especially for house? Yes! I've also got a S2, but mixing on the 92 is always a good time. It's a different experience with rotary mixers. If a rotary S2/S4 was developed, I would bring that into bed with me.

That won't work for what you want to do; I would suggest two of these so you can switch between phono and line inputs easily: http://www.amazon.com/3-Way-Audio-Sw.../dp/B004T8KZCM
