Allen & Heath DX …?

Whats this i spy?

http://www.xone.co.uk/dx/

You will find out on the 3rd of October when it’s revieled at BPM. My guess is a vci style midi controller…

Blurry cam… grrrr :slight_smile:

I’d be sold if… It had 4 deck control, at least 2 dedicated FX controllers, HID support.

anything else and I’ll stick to my Vestax TR-1 thanks

God how many time are we gonna have that same pic posted up.

Anyhoo the jogwheels look like the ones from a 1D so my guess is that its pretty much 2 X 1Ds with a mixer section like the VCI so no good for itchy-scratchy stuff which is fine as u would expect from Allen & Heath.
From the pic ive seen elsewhere it looks kinda plasticy !!! Unlike the VCI. and unlike the 1D or 2D.

Certainly worth a look but my hunch is it will be a more EDM version of the VCI (meaning not good at all for scratching).

I believe it’s an ITCH controller…

Cheers

Interesting , what makes you say that. The jog wheels (from the crappy pic) dont suggest its an Itch controller. Certainly dont look as large as the VCI 300 or even the 100.
Have you tried scratching on a 1D or Hercules , its like scratcing with a blini :wink:

I’m with K here!

I think its a slim all MIDI version of the 3d/4d.
btw K, could you PM me the other link?

kinda looks like there is 4 volume faders in the blurry pic, but its hard to tell

Its the same pic but with a bit less fuzzy effect . Not much diff.
Its on this forum:

Yeah im thinking budget market all round controller for about £300 .
Trying to get in on the VCI market because no-one can afford a 4D and the 1D is to big and limited for what it can do (i mean the faderfox dx2 is micro and does 10 times m more) and you really need 2 or 2D which is twice as confusing to use as the 1D.

Dont get me wrong , i Love the Xone 62 , i use it every week for my big gig. I love A&H stuff so ill defo have a look at it but if the jog wheels arent better (and i mean much better) that the VCI and it is as plastic as it looks i wont be changing in a hurry.

Yeah id agree with that. Also looks like 4 buttons under Blue Lights (Play Button) which might choose which Traktor (or other software) deck you control on that side of the controller which would be very cool as i get too confused with Modifiers all over the place hah.

dang it even has a build in audio device…i´m excited to see the whole controller

Should be a decent soundcard seeings how its Xone too, all the current controllers on the market have crappy ass soundcards >=(

Yeah that would be a huge plus point . If it had a ‘Booth’ output as well as Headphone and Master id be as happy as a pig in shit.

If they came out with a statement that the Sound card was similar to the quality of the 4D or Audio 8 it would probably up the price a bit maybe around the 700quid mark but it would still be worth a good look.

Shh i think my VCI is getting jealous:wink:

mmmmm

I want this withOUT a soundcard, dammit!

Yep…definately looks like 4 channel faders. Traditional mixer setup with settings for X Fader etc.

Looks like 4 buttons at the bottom ala VCI and the same jog dials as the other A&H products.

I would have liked 4 volume faders my VCI.

Love everything else.

+1 lol i dont want a sound card in it >_< id rather it just be a midi controller which is nice and affordable rather then having to buy a controller with a soundcard that i doubt will be as good as my audio 8… oh well can only hope :stuck_out_tongue:

I reaaaaly got my hopes up for this one, but then i saw this:
http://www.decks.co.uk/products/allen_heath/Xone_DX
Wich it reaaaaly not good. No dedicated controls, for efx means notting good to me :disappointed:(

Itch 2 should be coming out, and supposedly with effects. I wouldn’t rule that out with DX either.

Wow i hope your right tekki, ive been waiting for something like that. Get rid of the soundcard/mixer, size it down, lessen the weight and most importantly the PRICE! A midi version of a 3d/4d is what will get me off lol
