The MC3000 is kind of a no-brainer now that it's been dropped to $400, too.

Also, I can't speak for a ton of Behringer stuff, but I've never used a piece of Behringer gear that didn't feel like cheap crap.

I won't lie bro; it Behringer's crap that revived this thread for me. Like I said I am tired of waiting on them. In fact, I saw on their Facebook page them saying that more information will be on the CMD Studio 4A page in weeks. So what does weeks mean? Now March isn't the target date and it's going to be April instead? Sheesh! Enough already.

I know with this Denon, I would be getting much higher quality gear. I just wasn't ready to drop that much money yet, and I honestly wanted to give Behringer some support and a try for doing as much as they have at that price point.

The wait is getting too long though. The only thing I have to DJ with right now is a MIDI keyboard and that sucks!

I got it as well. I believe I paid about 45 shipped from eBay. Wish it were a tad bit lower, but it's very sturdy.

Yeah. I'm glad I am covered on software. I'm getting Deckadance 2.0 for free, got Traktor Pro on sale, and I got Mixvibes Cross DJ on sale.

This is kind of lame, but you could always buy the Audio DJ 2 for $99, keep Traktor Pro and sell the audio interface for $50 or $60. Just a thought.

One hassle i cant work out is the record remix deck grab from deck command. On a previous controller, this would always grab just a four bar loop from the deck into the top slot of each remix deck.... the settings i have right now it grabs the whole track into the remix deck, how do i set traktor to only grab a 4 or 8 bar section of the track when i press grab from deck??? any help much appreciated.

I just got this beast and I love it! Reminds me of my trusty VCI-100 of yesteryear. Insanely solid and well-built. As its powered the volume output both on the channels AND the master output are very loud, powerful, and crisp, and one thing that many don't mention is that the master volume of the unit does NOT control the master volume of Traktor and is in fact independent. A VEEEERY nice feature indeed that should be highlighted more. This means that no matter how i change the master output when mixing it doesnt affect my recording volume. One hassle with internally recording on Traktor is that if you touch the master out you to compensate the record gain, a total drag. This eliminates that!!

I agree. Behringer has been pushing back the release date for the past 6 months. Originally they announced the final quarter of 2012 at namm 2012. This year the rep told me end of february. Then after namm this year they said march. Behringer's PR is much like theyre gear . gar.

Rant aside. Awesome review man.

I already got an Audio 2 from eBay. I got a copy of Traktor Scratch Duo, but I can't upgrade to Pro for free Might just have to cough up the 90 bucks to do so.

I'm hoping to get my MC3000 next week Trying to make some deals on eBay.

I'm believeing about this one because I am getting SICK and TIRED of waiting on Behringer's stuff and I hate the bloated price of The Traktor Kontrol S2 and I already bought Traktror during this past Christmas discount special for $49.
