Need help choosing a mixer for 1210 + Kontrol S4

Hi,

I just got my first 1210’s and I’m now looking to get a mixer for listening to vinyl played through the 1210. Also, I would like to have the ability to mix the 1210 output with digital through my S4 (but might get a CDJ eventually too).

I read that the S4 does not support Phono input, and therefore I’m assuming I definitely need a mixer for connecting the two together (please correct me if I’m wrong). Having laid that, can anyone recommend me a good mixer for my use case? .
Requirements are:

  • Sound quality over functions
  • Must have booth and master out
  • 2 channels min.
  • Must allow vinyl, Traktor S4 and CDJs.
  • Budget min $300-max $800

So far I like the Allen & Heath Xone 23 or 23C (latter has built-in soundcard). I think it ticks all the boxes. Thoughts? Any other recommendations?

Thank you!

My S4 mk3 handles phono just fine.

The S4 will work fine! You can even usse DVS with it.
