Ok, so I have been djing on friend's gear for too long, it's time for me to buy my own gear, and I am set between the novation twitch, or the reloop contour interface edition and a cheap mixer (probably a numark m6). Is the sound quality on the reloop/M6 going to be that bad? I really like that…

Both, the xone 42 and 62, are available for the same price of around $900 at the moment. The 42 has a more modern layout. The 62 has two extra channels but seems to be dated already. Which one would you choose for EDM? I don't mind the position of the x-fader on the 62 as I don't scratch.…
