stripped-down inexpensive 4-channel mixer for home?
stripped-down inexpensive 4-channel mixer for home? Posted on: 22.03.2013 by Kathe Stump I've looked around and found a few options, but Im looking for opinions.I need a 4-channel mixer for home use only, as basically every gig I play has a DJM 800/900. I have an audio 8 DJ, so I'm looking for a 4-channel mixer. I'm looking for something very cheap, because it's competing with just buying a CMD MM-1 when they come out, and mixing internally when I'm at home. I'd prefer to mix on a hardware mixer at home, but I can't justify that desire enough to buy a high-end mixer. I don't need any effects or beat counters or anything, just an adjustable crossfader and four channels. I'm also not really interested in a moblile DJ/rackmount-style mixer. So what do you guys believe? What's the cheapest 4-channel mixer you'd recommend. (disclaimer before the newbies chime in: for so many reasons, don't waste posts suggesting the Z2, or the hypothetical Z4 for that matter.) Thanks a lot. | |

Nice eq curves, decent sound, matrix input, sample banks, dsp effects, duck talk on mic, fader and x fader adjustable curves. The company has been around since the 80's doing audio gear http://www.tblmnnrs.com/2012/03/synq...h-smx.html?m=1 smx3_carac1.jpg |

| Alphonso Deitchman 23.03.2013 | Ecler Nuo 4! http://www.amazon.com/Ecler-NUO-4-0-.../dp/B003E4FYUU No effects or other things to go wrong. And much more solid than anything from Behringer. +1 for Xone 42 too. If you can find a nice condition used DJM700 that'll also work well for practice since you use DJMs in the club. |
| Annalisa Shogren 23.03.2013 | You'd feel a fool not to get this... http://nsm05.casimages.com/img/2012/...3359760870.png It's practically a Xone 92 with built in effects. |
| Ana Butt 23.03.2013 | In my place, I would get Xone 42 which goes for around 500 pounds or try get mint xone 92 or http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pioneer-DJ...item41710a8ada |

| Doreen Schurle 22.03.2013 | Behringer DJX-750, NOX606, or Reloop RMX-40. All three of them are VERY solid mixers for home (or even road use, assuming you're the only one who'll be using it and you respect your gear). |
| Jetta Drenzek 22.03.2013 | Anything Behringer. |
| Layne Koop 22.03.2013 | Vestax 004xl Denon X500 |
| Deangelo Boender 22.03.2013 | Whats the difference between the 700 and the 750? |
| Latoria Kavulich 22.03.2013 | DJX-750? POS but cheap as chips. |
