To Zomo or Not to Zomo? Posted on: 08.03.2013 by Doreen Schurle I can't decide :-\ most clubs around here don't use DJM-style mixers, so I'm kinda missing out on that aspect of its appeal, but I DO like the idea of having something REALLY small to rock up to a venue with. Just not sure if I'd miss the jogwheels.

Well, thanks to the jog-free reassurance, the MC-1000 is currently winging its way to me Will post a review and my custom mapping once it arrives

Managed to wipe the flash memory before I had a chance to upload the firmware as a backup.. Hopefully should hear from Vestax during the week.

nayit ruiz jaramillo 09.03.2013	Originally Posted by loverocket I have my beauty right here. What do you want me to test? If it works with Traktor DJ app dude. Would be prefect if they implemented midi functionality for a little setup. If you have an iPad and Midi Monitor app and connect it with the camera kit and Midimon shows midi input it should be class compliant.

Alphonso Deitchman 10.03.2013	It's a really nice piece of kit, solid all-metal like the VCI and does everything a two-deck controller does minus jogs+FX. Shame I had to go and break it so fast..
Emelina Chillson 10.03.2013	Wouldnt mind having one of these for set prep.

Alphonso Deitchman 09.03.2013	Seek for large changes, pitch bend for small.

Nedra Fresneda 09.03.2013	I'd pick a Xone K2 over that any day.

Doreen Schurle 09.03.2013	Denon one looks interesting, although no filter knobs I might just buy the Zomo, see how it feels and then decide whether or not to keep it. Just need to hunt down a reasonably priced used one now haha. EDIT: AFAIK, the MIDI on all of these is class-compliant, the audio stuff is typically supported natively as WASAPI/CoreAudio, with additional ASIO support for some devices.

Doreen Schurle 08.03.2013	Originally Posted by loverocket http://www.jkproaudio.com/Vestax-VCM-100_p_227.html I did look at the Vestax, but didn't particularly like the aesthetics on it... is there anything else out there even remotely similar to the Zomo?
Jeffrey Akinsanya 08.03.2013	faderfox?

Doreen Schurle 08.03.2013	Originally Posted by deevey I personally do prefer the horizontal layout rather than vertical. This. Never liked the idea of having my filter knobs one above the other, makes manipulating multiple filters at once a pain in the arse :-/
Rolanda Clodfelder 08.03.2013	Originally Posted by 3heads I really don't see the appeal if you compare it with an X1. Built in soundcard ? I personally do prefer the horizontal layout rather than vertical.

Just not sure if I'd miss the jogwheels. Zomo + Ipad might be win win as a high quality tiny rig if its a class compliant soundcard in the zomo *Just says core audio for Mac and no driver download so bets are its class compliant, nice
