Midi-Fighter or Oxygen 8V2
Midi-Fighter or Oxygen 8V2 Posted on: 27.12.2010 by Arturo Banerjee Hey Guys,This is going to be my very first controller and I've never really gotten into DJing before. I'm still fiddling around with the Traktor demo, so I hope to get Traktor Pro in the next couple of weeks with my first controller. If I'm only going to get a single controller which do you guys believe would be better the Oxygen 8 v2 or the Midi-Fighter? Thanks! | |

| Arturo Banerjee 28.12.2010 | I'm just about to grab an entry level vestax mixer, so would the oxygem be better paired with that even if it doesnt have the jog wheels |
| Maisie Marras 27.12.2010 | yup, ean was using an oxygen 8 at first. but now he's using two midi fighters along with a mixer. so a single midifighter would result in a major headache when you map it for 2 decks and still have to use a mouse for volume |
| Soledad Kipke 27.12.2010 | theory28 has a point, there are no volume controls or anything. Ean rocked an Oxygen I believe, but he was also using the mixers in clubs for EQ/volume. |
| Maisie Marras 27.12.2010 | well, using the oxygen 8 and/ or a MF is a weird way to start djing. i would recommend something that has jog wheels and an EQ as a first controller. |
| Soledad Kipke 27.12.2010 | I just got a midi fighter (as a second controller, I already had a Hercules DJ Control Steel). It's a phenomenal piece of kit, but it wouldn't make a flexible primary controller. The Oxygen 8 is really nice - I believe you'll appreciate the variety of controls. It should be well-suited to a bunch of different mappings. Maybe pick up a midi-fighter later on as an extension to your setup, it's pretty awesome. |
