Cupe Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Best bang for buck, and quality of machine.All in one with preferably usb input.Would also be good to have one that has built in screens so no laptop needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 He wants something that you can plug usb drives into without using a laptop at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narukami Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 stanton scs 4? or numark mixdeck? (stanton would be a finer choice though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 He wants something that you can plug usb drives into without using a laptop at allNone of the controllers i was looking at had their own LED display, so unless you're a psychic using usbs with the unit without laptop is pointless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelodyIlliterate Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Sounds like an untapped market. We could make billions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cupe is looking for something m-dex *shudder* style where you have 2 decks and a mixer built into one unit with usb ports or somethinghttp://www.djwarehouse.com.au/djgear/di ... oller.htmlNot sure how good this thing actually is though.All the better controllers that I know of you need a laptop to go with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupe Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 waht da fuckim sure i saw a sick one with led's on it once before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolDios Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 After various research of the scs.4 I have found that it is not worth itIt takes WAY too long to analyse the songs.Perhaps the new Gemini flagship? depending on the quality of it.Hot cues, large platters, usb and cd inputs, Seems pretty high in features.Otherwise id have to say to go cdj's.

MelodyIlliterate Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 tiny huh? hmm we could invest thousands into this and create an ADJF prototype... or you might have to settle for a pacepaker one day technology will catch up to us innovators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russell Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 just get one of thos iPod mixing things.... that'll sort you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narukami Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Russel, i think your taking about Djay for ipod. If Cupe has an iPad, it'll probably be better to use cause of a bigger screen but i wouldn't trust my life with it. you can't cue, if you want to you gotta turn all your music to mono. also, it crashes sometimes (which is pointless because Cupe wanted something that wouldn't crash). What Sol said about the scs4 is true BUT once all your songs are read and all that tut, it's actually a damn good device, especially with the little screen. my friend owns one and that's the only problem he has with SCS4 but other than that, nothing.

Mitch Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Nah, there isn't many of these things that people use. Most controllers are hooked up via laptop.Numark mixdeck is another one that doesn't need a laptop. Again, can't vouch for the quality though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
