Hey guys,
I have been learning to DJ digitally for a few months using the Numark Omnicontrol, which I now want to replace. The main problem with the Omnicontrol, as others may know, is the feedback/static noise you get when using active speakers with the laptop is plugged in, which seems unavoidable and sucks.
I was looking at the Oxygen 8. My questions are:
1) What extra equipment do I need to go with it? At the moment I do all my mixing with the controller, but I figure the Oxygen 8 would require me to buy an external soundcard and mixer (as I can’t see any crossfaders on the keyboard). Am I right? I think that’s probably a n00b question...
2) Would it be mega complicated to setup? I’m computer savvy, but not expert.
3) As I don’t have ambitions to be a ‘controllerist’, I just want enough tricks in my arsenal to mix smooth and smart – so is this setup going to work for me, or would I be making a big mistake not buying a VCI-100?
Grateful for any views. I think this is possibly the best website and forum anywhere on the internet!
