Just a Controler

It is greatly designed for Numark Cue, any features that are on cue you can control. Theres only a few things you still need to control from your computer. The only thing that i wish is that it would have inputs and outputs like the Hercules mk2 that is actually like a mixer.

Real easy to use, all controls work real great with numark cue

It controls well, all the controls and knobs are pretty acurate, but it feels kinda like cheap plastic that will break with a simple drop.

yes..

I have a problem with it, after about 20 min of use it makes a weird noise everytime i do anything like adjust pitch, volume ect. Im working on getting a replacement but dont know if its mine or all that have the problem.

It is probly the best looking controller there is with all the functinos that it comes with.

N/A - This is a controller only.

The controller performs many mixer functions through the CUE LE software or other software you may wish to hook it up with. You can browse tracks, scratch, pitch shift, change gain levels, kill low/med/hi freqs, use FX, etc. all from the controller. I couldn't really ask for much more from a device in this price range. Some fancier controllers do some really crazy stuff but you pay for what you get for, and the TC is worth what you pay.

I found it quite easy to use. Only complaint is that sometimes CUE is a bit fussy about finding the USB device. That's strictly a thing with the CUE software though, and you can use other software.

It feels great, the rubber jog wheels feel solid and spin really well. They don't feel cheap. The device casing is plastic but it has a heavy feel to it. Would be better as metal but might scratch more. I think most people will see it as a quality device.

I think it was worth what I paid. I'll be using this until I get real decks.

I couldn't find out much info on Numark's website, though there are support forums that seem to respond to inquiries regularly.

I thought it was real sexy, that was why I wanted it! It looks great and feels like a pro product to be using at a gig, in my opinion.

Being a midi controller, it doesn't produce sounds by itself. I'm rating it an 8 because on occasion, there is some very soft "cracking" that can be heard when adjusting volume, EQ Levels, etc.

This is a tough call because the Total Control fall short in some features but compensates nicely with others: Bad: No on board sound output capabilities (like comparable controllers from Hercules or Behringer). This means you will need a peripheral to use monitoring headphones. There are a handful of satisfactory USB sound cards out there, but such an item is not included. Good: Numarks CUE LE software is extremely intuitive, with a learning curve that makes the basics of DJing accessible to almost anyone. Also comes with Traktor LE, which I found a little cumbersome. Something for DJ's switching from analog to digital.

Very straightforward install. As previously stated, you can learn the basics of CUE LE in a very short period of time.

Fit and Finish are great, though I'd prefer a controller with at least a partially metal enclosure. The body of the Total Control is plastic, but does feel solid and well constructed.

There are cheaper controllers out there, and though this lacks some necessary peripherals, it makes up for it in usability and by being bundled w/ CUE and Traktor's LE versions.

I have called customer support. The operator was friendly although he didn't have the answer I needed, but directed me to who did. That office however was closed at the time. ( I figured out the issue myself w/o needing to call them a second time )

The product admittedly looks a bit toy-like, being made out of plastic. In terms of professional-cred, controllers like the Vestax VCI-100 and the Behringer BCD2000 certainly look the part. That being said, it's not quite as rudimentary as comparable Hercules controllers and with a sufficient number of knobs and faders, you should be able to gain some respect.

whenever the sound gets 3/4 up the volume gets fuzzy

i wish it came with the IO but that's only $100 more.

The easiest and simplest for anyone out there.

I feel like it's a piece of plastic i can break easily but other than that The skin is good and all the knobs, dials etc. works well.

not the most high tech but it gets by.

i have not dealt with Numark but I've checked out the website and it looks like a good and official website.

it's compact. you can carry it around in one hand. it's so small they don't make a case for it...it's very attractive.

Doesn't click loud I guess. Haha.

The surface lights don't seem to work or have any current patch to the best of my knowledge that works with Traktor. I have a USB LED light anyways.

Very easy to use and set up. Integrates with Traktor very easily. All controls can be quickly assigned.

Sturdy. Good weight to it. The plastic skin can get to be annoying if you don't find a way to adhere it to the bare surface of the controller. I would also like to see a notch in the center of the tempo fader so you know when it's back at zero. The crossfader could have a little more resistance to it. Besides that, all is excellent.

This is stupidly great value for the money. It's the most comprehensive surface with the most amount of controls you are going to find for the money, hands down.

The unit doesn't have a sound card, its just midi controller. To get a better sound quality rather than from the computer, its a good idea to get a separate sound card box. Another sound source give you the opportunity to prelisten to your music before mixing through the headphones.

The very basic features of a mixer + sample and effect buttons.

Straight forward unit. Perfect for beginners to get an idea about DJing, as well as suitable for house gigs.

Very light and solid box.

Well obviiously this is not the best solution on the market. If you want real quality then go for a vci-100 thats if you want to drop the 400. But the numark totalcontrol is not THAT bad. I mean yes it is bad in my opinion and I have my reasons. For one the slight lag with the fades and all the knobs and bars. I really dislike that. For two the jog wheel sometimes acts like it is on crack cocaine and skills all over the place. Not fun when you are doing the most intence mix of your exsistance and the tool enableing you to play with these audio files says "NO THANKS BRO" and sends your trak back a fiew steps. FINALLY the bugs, oh my god the bugs. I cant use virtual dj at all anymore. Whenever I do anything it makes a wierd noise. Traktor 3 barly wants to accept that this thing has jogwheels. and getting it to work overall was one of the most frustrateing things ive done in a long time. Overall im going to have to hand it a 6/10 Better then avrage, But still quite horrible when you try to get better. Fun for Djs that dont want to commit though.

Really could have come with the ac. My laptop is to small to power this via usb so I need the ac adapter.

Hopfully it works for you guys first try.

Durable as hell, Carved out of stone, Plastic but hey it works.

You get what you pay for.

Its numark. I mean come on.
