NUMARK 4TRAK – Final Review
[EDITED JULY 19 ’13] So…barely 3 weeks, 4 gigs & 2 mixtapes in, I decided to trade in my 4Trak. Even though I absolutely LOVED using it, I had the following issues: 1. SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY: When my Macbook mysteriously crashed the other day & I had to scramble for a backup, it became very clear that …
NUMARK 4TRAK – Review (I)
[Review updates can be found here] So I finally gave up my rock-steady Mixdeck! It was tough seeing it go…but I’m sure it’s in good hands now 🙂 It was time to move on to something else. So, I got this: The Numark 4Trak + Kommand FX bar. A close brother of the Numark NS6, …
Numark Mixdeck – Final Review
My FINAL review of the Numark Mixdeck! My next controller review will not feature the Mixdeck, as I’m moving on to something else. It’s been a fun ride though. I’m definitely a Numark fan! The Mixdeck has been pretty sturdy and reliable. Served me through a lot of gigs, mixtape recordings, practice sessions…you name it! …
Numark Mixdeck – Review (5)
I haven’t done a review in a while, and understandably so: My Mixdeck has been pretty awesome. Just a few things to note: Platters & Scratching: for the longest time, I’ve contemplated getting CDJ’s or Turntables. Besides, you’re not a ‘real’ DJ if you don’t have ‘real’ decks, right? WRONG! At the end of the …
Numark Mixdeck – Review (4)
Since my first review about a year ago, my Mixdeck has taken quite a beating 🙂 But it’s been super reliable and I’ve grown pretty fond of it. HOWEVER, over time I’ve noticed a couple of things: 1. The faders aren’t very strong, and my crossfader has popped out a few times. I guess a …
Numark Mixdeck – Review (3)
TRAKTOR PRO USERS: UPGRADING TO VERSION 1.2.7 TAKES CARE OF A HOST OF CONTROLLER ASSIGNMENT ISSUES! I just had to do a few additional edits i.e. – Set the START/STOP knobs to control KEY & FILTER on either deck – Set the REC button as a 4th HOT CUE and the MODE button as the …
Numark Mixdeck – Review (2) (EDITED)
Here’s a short addition to my initial Mixdeck review: 1. Like many 2-deck controllers out there, Virtual DJ works pretty well with the Mixdeck from the get-go. The only additional control assignment I did was to set the START/STOP knobs to the KEY and FILTER controls for each deck. 2. Notes on TRAKTOR PRO: I …
Numark Mixdeck – Review (1)
6 weeks and two gigs later, I’m ready to write my first review of the Numark Mixdeck. While I was researching DJ controllers, I was looking for a sturdy yet affordable, all-in-one system that can handle multiple audio sources. Fortunately, the Mixdeck does just that – plays CD/MP3 Discs, USB drives, Auxiliary inputs…even has an …
