does the job, just don't get your hopes up on pristine sound quality.
Sound
using the USB functions, and playinf with Traktor, there is noticable "noise" in the AD-DA converters. if the bitrate is low on an MP3 file, it is almost unplayable.
Features
bought it to integrate 2 turntables and a laptopset-up. it does the job, but now I'm looking for a better audio interface, and just use a better quality 4 channel mixer. the eq's are pretty average. no mid's... the crossfader is ok, but not anything special.
Ease of Use
straight forward. BIG PROBLEM... there's no meters! how are you suposed to know how much gain to use? this is a problem. also the volume difference between Line and phono and usb inputs is HUGE. not the smoothest mixes.
Quality
it's been on the road with me from Costa Rica to Mexico to Hawaii, it si metal and built pretty tough, however, like I said, the D-A converters are noisy, so maybe that is due to bouncing around.
Value
it frikin' cheap. just as a back-up mixer it's cheap, let alone the USB capabilities.
Manufacturer Support
n-a
The Wow Factor
cool little mixer, but more toy than pro, unfortunately. I'm gonna check out the new Berringher USB deck for $150.
