New VOXOA M70 VDJ/TRAKTOR mixer worth taking a look at!
Posted on: 09.07.2012 by Erlene Esquerra
hey lads and ladettes,

I'm DJ from New Zealand, and I'm living in China. I see a lot of really, really crap DJ gear on a daily basis... (no really... its really crap lol.)

BUT, once and a while I find some gems, Like the new M70.

I was buying some gear for the Skullcandy office when I came across the Voxoa brand. They are a company that operate out of HongKong, and they make OEM products for a bunch of other very popular European and USA brands that a lot of you already own.

I liked some of their up-and-coming projects and they seemed to be serious about making quality, serious pro gear.
They asked me to review some of the new gear and give them feedback, and I must say I will be looking forward to some great new stuff coming from these guys.
Their gear is aimed at the mid-market range... not cheap crap, not rip-off expensive, but quality, affordable and professional features and build.

So, the M70. Its a basic 2 channel mixer suitable for scratch DJ's.
The key thing is that it has a bunch of midi controls all over it (a bit like the Pio. DJM-T1) and can be used with Traktor pro or VDJ.

Great for us creative controllerists!



Anyway... they let me borrow this mixer for a few gigs and it was great to use. I recommend it! so I will post it here.
i don't want to give my demo unit back yet!.. but I am testing out their C60 traktor scratch controller/mixer next.

The downside! Oh yea... if you want to buy one they currently do not sell in stores on the US or UK due to their contracts with the other dj gear brands... however there are some popping up private sale on-line (ebay etc...)
If anyone is interested let me now .. I am considering taking advantage of my discounted price and selling a few my self... but only if you guys are keen to check them out.

Built-in Audio Interface With Specialized DJing Audio Features

As an expert in the design of audio interfaces, Hercules determined that the integration of an audio interface featuring 4 inputs and 4 outputs on the Hercules DJConsole RMX 2 was both obvious and essential. The RMX 2 offers 2 balanced XLR outs and 2 RCA outputs. 4 RCA inputs allow you to mix 2-channel audio from two separate sources.

It's a pretty common convention these days, at least in the DJ world anyway

Nope, a 2x Stereo output audio interface is usually called a 4-out, not a 2-out.

IMO they are a dj company through opportunity not history so no their not in the league of vestax, numark/akai and the others I mentioned, but they still make damn fine products now, although their first generation of gear is pretty bad.
They have TONS of history making DJ gear, including products for the brands you mentioned. 3 or 4 factories make 80% of ALL of the DJ gear you're likely to run across.

reloop TM2/4, contour, Jockey 3
stanton djc4 OEM of the C50
DJ Tech Dragon Two
VOXOA C50/60
ZOMO MC-1000

They are still a big brand that does not use Hanpin, I did originally word it as "high-end" but changed it to include NI.

Are they making the Terminal Mix controllers for Reloop then? I can't believe of any other high quality products they might be manufacturing.
Jonathan Chiuchiolo

They manufacture gear for reloop, stanton and dj tech.. all of their newer generations of controllers are of a very high quality. I don't know why you have grouped N.I. in with Denon, Pioneer and Allen & Heath. I would put NI's gear well below hanpin's products, only above the mixtrack and other cheap plastic controllers.
Alphonso Deitchman
09.10.2013
Other than their turntables, are there any other "high quality" products they put out?

And as far as I know, they don't manufacture gear for the big DJ brands like Denon, Pioneer, A+H, NI etc.

VOXOA is the "house brand" for the Hanpin Electron company based in Taiwan. Hanpin makes gear for most of the DJ brands out there. Their SuperOEM turntables are well known, and their products are generally of high quality. Definitely my favorite OEM/ODM from a quality and pedigree standpoint.

do you know what brands they producing OEM products for?

I work for the Thai distributors of Rane and Serato...
VOXOA have contacted us about distributing the brand out here.... i'm very interested in the m70 and the T80 turntable..

Turntables are hd4.5 , The mixer kicks ass , Like a mixer with a Kontrol X1 built in and 4 channel sound card as well with a DVS switch aswell.

Where is the best place is the USA to get the M70? what is the warranty and how would I get service if needed (since I am in the USA). Also, are there any videos on this mixer? I could not find much...

Thanks ....

Dude. Do a mini review!
Can the filters be used on external inputs, or is it a MIDI control only? How do they sound?

Actually mapping in Traktor is pretty easy, and you can really get carried away personalizing with it,
however Serato mapping is not so kind.
I have been try to get DELETE HOTCUE working but nothing seems to work... i believe serato deliberately have disabled it for 'other' controllers. Have found some info on how to get around it but nothing seems to work.
We have the M70 setup with Serato in our lounge, with the old technics, and it would be nice to have this feature so the laptop keyboard/mousepad would be redundant.

I also find the ASIO drivers vary a lot with latency from PC to PC (with Traktor and M70 ASIO). My i5 Acer gets a shabby 20+ ms, while my older gateway runs as low as 12. The frankenstein desktop I have does as low as 8ms without lagging.


Anyway - the new INNOFADER is coming.. can't wait to try this out in the M70. Also got one coming for the C60 as well... working on a MINI INNOFADER for it.

Mapping sample decks is pretty simple. Try visiting mapping community and post your questions there or PM me.

Well I decided to make myself useful while im stuck over-seas. I set up a small voxoa product based store on line. I need help finding a warehouse though.. in case any of you guys know any importers/exporters that deal with dj gear?

i really like the concept of this controller/mixer.
Kellie Myrum

Really nice! Both units are equipped with large amount of controls, creative mappings will love it. I like C60's double 4x4 button grid, it's badass controller.
Jonathan Chiuchiolo

Yeah I have the American Audio version, same motor but it's phono unlike the stanton st150 and the reloop ones.

I have never used or know of anyone using a real hanpin mixer, is the eq nice? any specs on the frequency bands and do the eq knobs also transmit midi aswell? I'd read the manual but don't have adobe reader on my tablet
Erlene Esquerra
09.07.2012
The cross-fader is pretty loose.. it bounces back half way when you flick it across. Its replaceable also. The curve control is a dial so you can get it just right.

I am extremely happy with the C60 I have been using as well. Not to mention the turntables they do that are the first turntables I have enjoyed using since technics. (same as reloops tt's). All-in-all I hope they have plans for releasing their gear globally.
Jonathan Chiuchiolo
09.07.2012
Yeah I really like the feel of hanpin's current gear that reloop sell, the C70 also looks much better than stantons version although the online price from Asia to Australia was almost double just to get prettier leds lol, I assume the QC and parts will be better on their own branded gear if they are wanting to hit the world market, not that there is anything wrong with the dj3 or contour.

Has this got the nice loose crossfader from the digital jockey 3?
Erlene Esquerra
09.07.2012
I get the impression from them that they are intending to establish some pro gear under their own brand. They are already very popular across asia in just their first year using the brand VOXOA.
The M70 is the perfect unit to launch this idea, its really a serious piece of kit.
Jonathan Chiuchiolo
09.07.2012
If I had the cash I'd buy that without a doubt to sit between my tables for VDJ Pro. Are they looking at selling it to stanton or reloop at all in the future? What price point are they/you looking at?
Erlene Esquerra
09.07.2012
Well im just working out shipping to NZ, but i guess the shipping to USA/UK would be similar.

We're looking at around $500-$600 including shipping.. maybe I can get lower shipping (nearly $100).

Thats USD price
