Recommended Posts

Hi, Im currently at uni and need to kill some time. So Im starting this thread as a general reference guide comparing all controllers. Im going to revise it several times so bear with me.

If you own a controller feel free to write a mini review, mostly good points, bad points, what its useful for.

All comments will be deleted and incorporated into the guide.

out of that list i know people on here own the s4, both ddj's, the 4d, and the RMX

so you should get some info :)

for me, ive owned the RMX, its great for its price, well built, well equipt, much cheaper compared to the S4 etc, built in soundcard is also a pretty good bonus for its price

ez vlad, feel free to edit and add or just copy paste my mammoth reviews of Numark NS6 and Numark Mixtrack Pro:

viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6280

viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6655&hilit=mixtrack+pro

I have also used torq exponent. I sent it back after 2 weeks as was full of bugs with unresponsive platters.

nice idea for a thread, was gonna diss you for forgetting so many boards but read your 1st post again :) time is on your side bro.

lol vlad i think there is a reason why there is a whole section dedicated to this, its hard to get all the good controllers in to one thread, if you must, maybe split it into 3 main categories

1. Under $300

2. Under $800

3. Professional and the sky's the limit :)

there are about 30 good controllers on the market at the moment so putting them all in this thread will just be messy lol
