Two CD Decks and an Analog Mixer
Just because the MixDeck is an all-in-one DJ solution doesn't mean Numark skimped on the important details. Two genuine Numark CD decks are incorporated in to the core design of the MixDeck, and each deck is a fully functional DJ-style CD player with an illuminated control platter for cueing, beat-matching, and scratch techniques. In addition, each has a super-smooth loading mechanism, and two big, backlit LCD displays.They display track information and even ID3 meta-data from CD's, CD-R's and flash drives, so users will always know exactly where they are as they shuffle through their library on the Numark MixDeck.

The Numark MixDeck outputs include both XLR and 1/4-inch balanced outs for a truly professional connection to any house sound system or self-powered speakers.
Looping, Sampling, and Digital Effects
Numark didn't just stop at providing a solid foundation. The MixDeck also includes looping and sampling functions for complete, on-the-fly remixing capabilities, and a beat-syncing function that ensures seamless loops. The BPM-tracking also enhances the Numark MixDeck on-board digital effects, including chop, echo, flanger, pan, and phaser effects. Engaging the Key Lock button enables the MixDeck to play with a track's tempo without altering the pitch.Control Surface and DJ Software Integration
The MixDeck doubles as an natural-feeling yet powerful USB DJ control surface when hooked up to a laptop. The Mixer deck sends information via MIDI over USB, and can be used with a wide variety of mixing software. There's even direct stereo outs on each deck to feed into a timecode interface like the Serato SL3 or NI Audio 8 for Traktor. And, to top it all off, the Numark MixDeck ships with a copy of Virtual DJ LE.The Numark MixDeck is an all-in-one DJ system. It's part DJ CD player, part DJ controller and a complete DJ tool for today's players who don't limit themselves to just one form of music storage.

"I'm satisfied with this unit. Cool looking with multiple inputs. Could it have more features? Sure, but that would add to the pr"

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
At my age it won't have to last all that long. I feel the need to upgrade my equipment every few years. This unit should last 2-3 years and that would be fine. It might outlast me! The lack of multiple microphone inputs is the only real disappointment.
Sound
I used the MIXDECK for the first time in public and was disappointed with the overall sound. I adjusted the EQ all night but the sound was tinny and not full. I will play with the unit at home and try to work out the kinks. The CD's sound was better than the mp3's and the iPod, which is to be expected.
Features
The MIXDECK is an all-in-one design for DJ's. The ability to have access to CD's, MP3's, an iPod and USB inputs that includes a computer USB input is the main reason I purchased this unit. It did take some button pushing and twisting to access the music on the USB sticks. Once you have changed the source of a deck using the Parameter knob and the the source button you can use the Track knob to play MP3's off a memory stick. Push the Track knob to deselect the song that is currently playing and twist to go to another song in that folder, pushing the knob will play the new song immediately. Use the Back button to change to the folder mode after deselecting the current song (the Time Display will go blank and either File or Folder will blink).
Ease of Use
The Mixing board is straight forward and easy to use. There is no… read more EQ for the iPod input. There is only one Microphone input, so I've added a rackmount mixer for my wireless mics. (Behringer 882) The PC inputs worked fine. I use Virtual DJ and it was great to have access to 2 channels of USB input. I have played with Tracktor at home but using this unit as a controller does not fit my style of DJ'ing. Once the unit is set to control the computer you lose access to the CD's and USB sticks and it takes a few seconds to change. Some DJ's may like Traktor but I prefer Virtual DJ.
Quality
Well made plastic unit that really does need the optional road case for protection. Knobs and buttons are precise and responsive. The unit worked as advertised. Only time will tell if the MIXDECK is reliable, but Numark does have a good reputation for quality.
Value
I purchased the MIXDECK to try to downsize my DJ setup. It worked the way it was supposed to work and I feel it was worth the money. Two CD/MP3 decks, Two USB inuts for memory sticks and a PC/Controller input as well as the iPod input allow access to just about any music file a DJ will need. No all-in-one unit will satisfy everyone's need but for my purposes (Function DJ'ing) it fulfills my needs.
Manufacturer Support
I have never had a problem with a Numark product.
The Wow Factor
This unit is cool looking! Lights on the CD controllers give some visual clues as to what is going on. Very impressive to the public. Isn't that the image DJ's try to project?
