Thank you for this detailed review, it just made me think of a better workflow with this mixer! MIDI remap the loop mode since the encoder loop is enabled anyway which make it redundant. For my setup, I’m thinking of remapping the right deck’s pad’s to cue 5-8 for deck 1, and then put deck 2’s cue 1-8 on the loop mode. I think this would be great for 1deck users since you will rarely use cue points anyway on your non dominant deck.

It's a bit off point but what specs are the minimum required for serato and my Numark scratch mixer to work without any hindrance? Big love guys

Looks like a great Serato battle mixer for the budget price of $500! Of course there’s the cream of the crop mixers from Rane, Pioneer & ReLoop, awesome mixers but also at 2-4 times the price of this mixer. I’m considering getting this dope mixer but I’m wondering is there a way to access cue points 5-8 with those 4 pads, is there a button you can click on so you can switch from cue points 1-4 to 5-8? I really hope there is a way to do that because I got used to adding up to 8 cue points on some tracks. And before people start saying 4 cue points is more than enough when doing regular mixes and that back in the day you didn’t even have one cue point, that’s all true BUT when cutting & scratching tracks it’s really dope having up to 8 cue points for cuing specific parts of a track to cut & scratch, specially classic funk breakbeats and scratch sound effect tracks. If this cool mixer has access to all 8 cue points then I’m getting it! 😊

I've been having the idea for a while of a DJ controller with DVS and only one of my Technics turntables to the left of it since I mainly scratch on the left turntable anyways.

The 4 pads are just not enough and red is soooo boring after a while. However, i LOVE the paddle toggles, I'm very glad they included these because effects is something I always use. What's really strange is these scratch mixers were so difficult to get in the beginning and sometimes I feel like I wasted 500 because I could have used money for something like the S9 or 72.

@@digitaldjtips Thanks. I was about to buy this mixer and the mwm Phase. Nobody explains exactly that you need this and only this when using old school turntables. (apart from having the Serato vinyl) It should be so simple but as a beginner to "serato" I didn't know what was needed to go digital and keeping my turntables. Theres a lot of new terminology and the Numark or Serato website doesn't make it exactly clear that this is all you need if you have turntables. It should be a big selling point to market to old school vinyl DJs. Then they should build on that by showing all the new stuff you can do while still using your turntables. I've been mixing vinyl on 1210s since 1996. I skipped the whole CD deck era because the decks were dog crap through the 90s/early 2000s, and paying 2k for a CDJ scratch set up didn't float my boat during the mid 2000s. In 2020 the mwm Phase Essential peaked my interest in going digital from watching Jazzy Jeff live streams and how fluid it looked compared to CDJ's. Its an evolution, not a step back then a couple of shuffles to catch up. Its a revolution. If this mixer can let me go digital and keep my 1210s without mwm Phase Essential or denon dj ds1 it's pretty amazing.
