All the features Dj's look for, at an affordable price!
By T. Smith
I didn't hesitate purchasing the Numark Mixtrack. After coming acrossthe link on accident looking at other DJ products. I went to the Numarkwebsite and read more about this Dj Controller. I then went to Youtubeand watched a couple videos on it. I then came here to Amazon to purchaseit the same day after finding out about it.I've used a lot of Dj controllers before. At Parties, Clubs, Weddings ect.I always found the more expensive controllers to have the best features. Butwith the Mixtrack....I am proven wrong. This controller ranks up there with thebest in my opinion. When I compare this to great controllers like The VCI-300,The NS7, The Mixdeck, ect. You with this Dj controller can't go wrong. You'regetting a $150.00 Dj controller with all the features Dj's look for, at an affordableprice! With this you're getting a more real time djing feel. You're gettingnice Dj platters/jogwheels, effects, editing tools and a good program. This isa perfect tool to have on those days you dj a gig. But don't want to bring yourregular djing equipment. Also if your a beginner looking to learn the art ofbeing a Disk Jockey. This is the right product to learn on.With this controller, you would need to get an audio sound card. To be able tohear what your doing with headphones. Native Instruments the same company thatmakes the included Traktor program. Has a sound card called the Audio2Dj and Numark has the DjIo Sound card. There are other sound cards available also. The Mixtrack is premapped for use with all Traktor djing programs (Traktor Cue and Traktor Pro) and other approved djing software and hardware. Bottomline is this thing is made to perform and can hold it's own with the big boys. Numark has really outdone themselves with the Mixtrack, and with the success of the NS7, V7, and Mixdeck. Numark can go ahead and add this to the list of accomplishments.Intermediate and Advanced Dj's can get enjoyment out of this product. Speaking as a Dj myself, using this has not made me miss hot days in the garage mixing it up on my acoustic djing equipment. Now I got something I can use and take with me on the go and use anytime. Not to say this is going to make me stop using my SL1200's and DJM 600. But now I got another option till I get my Numark Mixdeck. Numark has also came out with the IDJ3 which is a similar controller. But it has an Ipoddock, and has a built in headphone jack and mic output. The IDJ3 cost $300 but has all of the same great features as the Mixtrack. So to end this, I recommend the Numark Mixtrack to everyone that wants to either learn, entertain ect. A very great Dj Midi Controller for an even more amazing price!

Probably exactly what you'd expect for $150
By T.J.
The Numark Mixtrack is definently what it says it is. It's a responsive, light, compact controller with some pretty amazing effects. I bought this to be able to DJ shows without having to carry 3 crates of records and turntables with me. While the two decks do act as turntables, the scratch sounds very computerized and the response is off. You have to watch your PC screen to keep track of where you're at in the cut. It is very light, very portable, and pretty responsive. It is plastic, so if you want the professional feel, you won't get it. If you want portable, this is for you. A couple of issues... You'll need a separate soundcard to be able to monitor your cue. This is in the price range of about $90+. And the version of Traktor that comes with it is the light edition which is very basic. The pitch is only +/-8%. I was hoping to be able to make that much more but in the light edition of Traktor that's all thats available. You'll have to upgrade to pro. All in all, this is most definitly worth $150. Just don't expect for it to change your DJ game. If you're looking into getting into DJing, I would suggest just getting PCDJ or another program that you can use a keyboard as the controller. Its easier to control at first and you'll see if you have the ear to mix. If you're looking to go portable, match this with a external soundcard and you, sir, are set.

Small, compact, lightweight. . .SO MUCH MORE FOR THE PRICE!
By Dj Windz One
I bought this for practicing my sets in my room, or where ever I can. That, and I wanted to venture into Native Instruments territory (I use Serato).Build Quality - I wish there was more metal parts (like a heavy mtal plate for the bottom), but it doesn't matter becasue it is light weight, and I can retrofit (hack) a metal plate of my choosing. . .but that'll be later. The buttons are responsive. With Traktor LE, it works flawlessly (packaged with it). I've had no issues with it, and I was fairly impressed with the build quality (being that it's ALL plastic).My only concerns are pretty small:1) The Faders.Over time, thy may get too wobbly, but I'm pretty sure there will be some after market parts (Innofader?) to replace these. Or I may just replace them (line faders) myself with smoother ones.2) Conencted USB.This is the part where I don't agree with it. I hack a replacement so I can simply remove the USB cord. But really, it's not a deal breaker.Price - How can you say no? $150 (no sound card). Rumors show that Numark and Native Instruments may put together a package with a sound card. If you don't want to wait (like I did), you may want to pick up either a Numark StereoIO (roughly $35-$40 ), or spend the good quality on a Native Instruments Audio 2 DJ ($100). I got the latter and the output is great. And with Traktor LE being from NI, Set-up is a FRIGGIN breeze.If you looking to get started, or want something to just mess around with, don't even hesitate on this!***UPDATE on OCt 4, 2010***Numark has just announced a MixTrack Pro for $250. . .This time it includes a soundcard built in, and has a detachable USB cord. . . .At least Numark is now listening!
