Behringer DDM4000 Mixer questions.

[dj matt blaze]

I'd go for this if your budget won't stretch to a Denon / Pioneer / A&H

One on eBay B-Stock for £279

thats really a controller....ddm4000 is a straight up mixer that will allow you to section off areas for midi control

Should be fine for use at home.

I wouldn't trust any Behringer product on the road though.

I have just upgraded from DDM4000 (which is now my back up) to a DJM 700. I've played clubs, parties and out door festival whith the 4000 and people have been shocked when they've come to look my set over. Ok the sound quality isn't as crisp as the 700 the configuration on the 4000 is mind blowing, the kill button are a great feature and can be incorporated in the efx, I've never had a problem with the mic output, I have a 5000 watt rig and the 4000 rocks a mean bass line. The one con, most people will say this, is the head phone socket position but I solved it with some sticky cable ties to to guide the head phone cabel to prevent it moving the crossfader.
If you're on a budget(or not) it's a mixer not to be over looked

Yep you're right - I should read the op properly..

Now If I could find someone with one that wants to trade for a NS6......... I think I am sold. Just need to find the right way to get one.

[dj matt blaze]

you want to do a straight up trade NS6 for a DDM4000?

Not quite there would be money or something else to supplement the difference. I like my NS6 but want a new workflow.

If you take proper care of your equipment, get the proper case for the equipment if you are taking it for mobile gigs, then you won't have a problem. I use mine out all the time, haven't had 1 issue with it. The DDM4000 has been out now for a few years, read the reviews, there is a gazillion of them and you may find 3 bad reviews out of every 50. Just because something doesn't have the overpriced pioneer stamp, or Denon or A&H, doesn't mean its not to be trusted. Its like saying I am only going to buy a mercedes because its the best and anything not in the upper echelon of auotmobiles is not to be trusted.

Why not use your ns6 ? Just curious it works great as a mixer. I route my one laptop through the 2 channels and use my total control to control traktor

I have to agree with oldtimer, lots of features that other mixers dont have out there at a great price - however that price is the lack of build quality. Although the ddm did me well for a couple of years i have to say.

If you want something rock solid build at a cheaper price check the Reloop mixers out. Great build, sound and affordable!
