krsjuan Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 so I pretty much sold all my equipment. tts and S4now im not really looking to get right back into it, but fuckkkkk I need something to mix onso im thinking a controller with jog wheels, midi/sample buttonsI loved the S4 but think it may be over kill, lots of channels probably works best with TTs and CDJSso whats the next best thing ladies?cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krsjuan Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 what about to ask that ^check out the Xone DX man, big rival to the S4$800 I reckondefinitely need something with jog wheels to avoid the need for CDJsI like to have the ability to drop a number of samples in and some decent effects (this may come down to software though?)4 channels seems like a bit of overkill though no?those big ass cue? buttons on the DX look like something i could get into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imadje Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 a lot of the new breed of controller have 4 channel faders, all have jog wheels as far as I know.You dont have to add cdjs or tts to them.It's just not worth the manufacturers making them with less channels until you reach the budget options like the numark mixtrack pro.

eggssell Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Yeah i thought it sounded cheap. Not sure if it was demo (doesnt say anything and its boxed up) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imadje Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 is such a good price it may even be a typo lolNS6 is basically a portable/streamlined version of NS7 without the motorised platters.Think CDJ 350 to the CDJ 2000 kinda thing I reckon.
