Best DJ mixer with USB Soundcard?
Best DJ mixer with USB Soundcard? Posted on: 16.04.2013 by Norbert Thysell I'm looking to upgrade my DJM400 to a 3+ channel mixer. I just use it along with an X1 and traktor but I've been wanting to get a remix deck or ableton channel going.Anyways I just wondered if anyone had any USB mixer recommendations? That NOX303 looks alright, pretty no-nonsense mixer - but I can't find the soundcard specs for it which is worrying, and no channel filters and the effects look pretty weak. On the other end of the spectrum is the DJM750 or the XONE DB2 - that's kind of my limit in terms of price - but again, dedicated channel filters... Thoughts?? | |

Ngan Shannon 29.04.2013 | Since many od you talking about the pioneer DDT1 @ 123DJ got a pioneer warehouses clearance deals going on this week http://www.123dj.com/mailer/wegoresealed.png many reseal items Yeah the T1 is going for $750. Might as well take advantage of these offers since many of u dream getting your hands on pioneer gear . |
Alphonso Deitchman 28.04.2013 | Looks like the DJM T1 might be getting discontinued now, so grab one before they disappear if you're interested. |

Alphonso Deitchman 18.04.2013 | Might want to read some feedback on the Voxoa too: http://community .djranking s.com/showthr...xoa#post602416 |
Doreen Schurle 18.04.2013 | Voxoa M70 might be an option if you want something a bit more affordable too. |
Latoria Kavulich 17.04.2013 | depending on your budget, i would recommend either the DJM-850 or DN-X1600 |

Alphonso Deitchman 17.04.2013 | The sound card in the NOX is useless, except for recording from external sources. The idea was not to find any mixer that has the words "sound card" on the spec list, but rather to find a decent mixer with a built-in interface thereby removing the need for an additional sound card. |
Gaynell Rydberg 17.04.2013 | I don't get it. It seems like all he wants is a mixer that works with Traktor via a built in sound card. Doesn't the NOX 303 provide him that? You can connect 3 ins and then sound out via the XLR out? |
Alphonso Deitchman 17.04.2013 | A sound card with 1 output is pretty useless for mixing. |

Merlyn Birchfield 18.04.2013 | I should be clear that it's used. But, still. They sell for $800 - $1000 on eBay all day long, and seems to be a hell of a mixer without having to pay the "Pioneer tax". Was believeing about an 850 for a while, but meh. |

Anissa Perusek 17.04.2013 | Is the DB2 scratch certified? |

Norbert Thysell 16.04.2013 | I found out about the NOX and Gemini lines shortly before I saw your post hellnegative. I knew a price of $2-300 was too good to be true! For the price of the DNX1600, I'd much rather go with the soon-to-be DJM750 - effects, layout, (looks). The real question is whether I can afford to go the extra mile for the DB2 or 850 in terms of cash cause that would be the dream. Really just need to wait for the 750 to come out to give it a try, and then weigh it against an 850 or DB2. The other thing a mate recommended me is the Z2 because it's so much cheaper and would let me route remix decks out the master still - but I can't help but believe a Pioneer or Allen & Heath mixer would be a better investment... |
Bunny Sockel 16.04.2013 | Gotta be the xone DB2 blows all the other mixers you are looking at out water. |
Alphonso Deitchman 16.04.2013 | The DJM 850 gives you channel filters along with a Traktor certified sound card - I'm guessing the 900 is way out of reach. |
Emelina Chillson 16.04.2013 | Neither the Gemini nor the behringer have an interface built in. Its a 1 in or 1 out stereo through usb. DJM900, X1600, A&H, or MAckie are my 4 favorites. If you cant afford the cost up front use zzounds.com or americanmusical.com |
