| Francie Gindin 05.11.2011 | Maybe the LPD8 was such a good product that it just needs a lick of paint to reach a new target market? Cheeky marketing folks |
| Danial Sawn 05.11.2011 | Should be nice to have something next to my Twitch so I can control the sample decks. |

| Gino Henderlight 09.10.2011 | A simple way to make money as controller manufactur |
| Arcelia Siebeneck 09.10.2011 | Looks excellent - I bet it'll be a lot more than an LPD8 though also, it's funny that the USB port is in the same location as the LPD8... Numark have literally not done anything to the original Akai PCB design hahaha... lazy or what! |
| Lisa Lochotzki 09.10.2011 | because it's an LPD8 copy/paste with a new enclosure & knobs & firmware... |
| Brunilda Kora 09.10.2011 | This looks like a nice addition to a turntable set-up. But WHY OH WHY have they put the USB connection on the front of the unit?!? |
| Vernie Beharry 08.10.2011 | But the fact you can't use additional MIDI controllers in ITCH makes this one pretty good. . and this isn't exactly new. . . Vestax did the same with the VCi-300 with that VFX-1? But, I dunno why this upsets me. . . .it just does. . . .I can't explain it! |
| Nedra Fresneda 30.09.2011 | They took a totally different angle when designing this Already familiar with the Akai/Numark relationship so no biggie besides a lazy design department. |
| Jacquelyn Swiatkowski 30.09.2011 | Well it doesn't make it any less true, it's just they're stealing from themselves.. |
30.09.2011 | perhaps you guys should do a little bit of research before posting stuff like this |
| Jacquelyn Swiatkowski 30.09.2011 | Nevermind...numark owns lpd8 it's still dumb, but the thread can be deleted, there's like 5 of these going right now |
| Jacquelyn Swiatkowski 30.09.2011 | that's so stupid, guaranteed you're going to have to pay more just so it's "itch compatible". Serato and Numark can suck my nutsack |
| Asha Kravetz 30.09.2011 | Sample player for itch. i want one alongside my pioneer DDJ-s1 |
| Lisa Lochotzki 30.09.2011 | Seems we post at the same time about the same controller... you must be blind, it doesn't looks like an LPD8 at all |
