Hi all,
As the end of year is getting nearer, the endyear bonus awakens the gearjunkie in me.
I have 2 X1's which are doing their job just fine and connected them on a digital mixer (technics sh mz-1200). this all comes together in an Audio8 DJ.
All those cables from mixer to soundcard doesn't make the setup quite portable, plus, the knobs on the mixer are quite small.
I have my eyes on the Pioneer DJM 700, which has midi-support, so I can use all the midi functionality and basically get rid of all the cables.
I have a few questions however, and I was hoping you could answer them:
1) Does the mixer have an "internal soundcard"? Since I already have an Audio8DJ, thereīs no real need for it and I donīt really get the final answer from the specs on the Pioneer site.
2) Would the midi control go through the midi-out? Since I don't see an USB port, I assume it's handled through that port (which means I need a Midi to usb cable)
3) Anybody got some experience with the unit? I like pioneer mixers a lot, sturdy machines with big knobs, I wonder if that's the same with this one. Also, How would it compare with the Denon X1600? I have the feeling the pioneer mixers are better in general, but I could be wrong.
Thanks in advance!
