ok so right now i have a behringer ddm4000, and recently i have been making money so i want to upgrade to something nice (since my ddm is on its second replacment now)and im thinking, fuck, is there any other 4(even 2 i dont care) channel mixer with customizable midi and led feedback, and after a long while of thinking, the answer really is no, i mean, lets thing of possible contenters, djm 800, midi can only be on, or off, there for disqualified because i want to use as analog and midi,there is the dnx1600 coming out but it didnt look like it has very many nice buttons for midi controls, i tried out my buddy’s ttm57 and loved it, but serato will never allow it to send midi data to traktor, buuuuuut, when i called them to ask about he sixty eight, it was another story, and keep in mind that i am pretty sure the 68 is the only mixer other than ddm4000 with adjustable midi (turning some sections on and others off), either way, serato made it very clear right now 68 isnt sending all midi data to other programs because firmware is new and has no been updated, but they did say in the future very soon it would be able to send midi data to anythign that recieves midi,
so for those wondering and for those sceptical, the sixtyeight will be able to have 4 channels running off traktor and midi commands goings in and out of it,i dont know why, but before i called serato i was really assuming 68 would be same a 57 with not letting traktor use midi, but i was wrong
ok im going to try to reply to all at onces, the korg zero series i personally dont like, it is very cramped for space and way to much going on for me, the ecler evo 5 falls into the same catagory as the djm 2000 for me wich i forgot to mention, to big, and ontop of that the ecler barely has any additional buttons meant for being programmed to midi, unlike the 68, and photojojo, call them yourself, its stupid know, but it wont send midi data to anything right now untill the update the firmware in a bit, and dj proben, the 68 can be used as a regular mixer, hence why it PWNS all others
And besides that, it’s friggin’ expensive. Call me stupid, but why don’t go for a good analog mixer like an A&H Xone:92 and get a midi controller sitting next to it. Or go for an A&H Xone:4D as munizj mentioned; then you already have a TSP certified soundcard…
