    Hi guy's

    I just picked up a xone 22 seconed hand, only issue is one of the pots on the eq is stiff. Is there any lube (wd40?) or any suggestions what i can do to fix it? it still works and does not crackle.

    thanks in advance..
    It's not the gear. It's how you use it.
    limitations are the source of creativity.
    If you don't practice you don't want it.

    Traktor 2 let's you output multiple decks through the same pair. Say AC 1/2 and BD 3/4, of course that would mean they will share controls in the mixer. I'd grab a second hand Audio 8 in your case (you can find it for around $200 on ebay).

    Summing up, you need an interface with 4 stereo output pairs to achieve independent EQs and faders per deck while running a stereo signal, there is no software feature that can help you.

    That would still mean a mono signal

    Bought an Audio4 off of a forum user here a while ago so I can have an input. So I will combine the A2 and A4 for use of four channels. That's the plan at least...

    I wish they'd bring back the Audio 8

    And make a card with nothing but 4 outputs.

    That would make things a lot easier. But of course, nothing is never that easy. Your tip on combining soundcards was the easiest thing I came across so I will be going that route. So thanks!

    I was having terrible latency issues on the A4 on my PC with both the default NI driver as well as ASIO. A2 works perfect though. Will be switching to a Mac in a few weeks so hopefully the A4 will run a lot smoother on that setup. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    Picked up a 92 on Friday... didn't have a chance to lay down a full set yet, but messed about for 20mins or so while I reconfigured my DJ furniture.

    At first glance I think the metering issues are going to throw me a bit. I could get used to the pre-EQ aspects of each channel meter, but I would really like to meter the MIX 1 and/or MIX 2 outputs. After so much experience with all other mixers where the master meter reflects the master output volume level I don't feel that comfortable with this setup.

    Does anyone know if there are jumpers to change what the master meter reflects?

    You would like the meters to be effected by the master volume controls? Why? It would make it much harder to use them to keep your volume levels constant.

    I guess its a matter of preference... when I'm in a booth or on a stage behind, or away from the main PA I like to have a visual of how hot i'm running the system... In this way I know how much head room I've got... with the 92 I have to remember that MIX 1 at level 10 is equivalent to unity gain @ 0db... I'd rather have the visual.
