Numark Mixtrack Pro II USB DJ Controller with Integrated Audio Interface and Trigger Pads

I previously owned The Mixtrack Pro and I decided to upgrade to this. I'm not a professional DJ nor do I play at clubs. I mainly use this for small gigs, small house parties, and for mixes for a website that I own. I use this with my Macbook Pro and Traktor Pro 2 and it responds very well and it corresponds with the button layout just like it did with Virtual DJ. If you're a beginner, I'd recommend that you play around with Virtual DJ for the basics and use Traktor Pro 2 when you want to advance. Like most reviewers have mentioned, this mixer is great for beginners. It's easy to use and everything is there. Of course, you don't become a "pro" in an instant. You have to put in a lot of time to experiment and play around with the software. Just have fun with it. I also forgot to mention that the build quality is perfect even though it's plastic. People think plastic is cheap but this one doesn't feel cheap to me. Its sturdy and lightweight. I bought this in November of last year before Black Friday and I got it for $198. Keep on a look out for the price, but if you're looking for something to play with whether you're a beginner or pro, this is the one that you should get.

This is a great way for a beginner to get their feet wet and start up in the DJing hobby but I think if you want to get more serious about it, you'd need a more advanced controller. I was just happy to see you can even scratch on this lil thing and it's really fun to use it recreationally, trying your hand at mixing stuff, using loops, some effects here and there, you know, the basics. You don't have a HUUUGE amount of options here but there are plenty of things one can learn through videos, that you can apply for use with this controller. The main thing any DJ hobbyist or even a more serious one, can learn, is beat matching, and for that, this console works just fine, as one would have expected. Numark is a pretty big player in the DJ controller market and I find their products more user friendly and less pompous than many of their competition's. I'd recommend this for any parent or self taught DJ hobbyist out there who wants to try their hand at the basics of DJing first, before getting a way more advanced and pricey controller.

PRO: Perfect for the price. Does the trick. Small and lightweight but feels strong. CON: Pay extra for "full" versions of software. Yes, the information is right here on the page: you get Serato Dj "Intro" and you can upgrade to Serato DJ Pro. Same for Virtual DJ. I guess I'm just not a fan of free, incomplete versions that need to be bought if you want the full experience. "But Keith, what do you expect, free stuff?" To which I say NO! Of course not. Serato DJ Pro is amazing and worth the price. The problem is, that price depends on what controller you buy. For example, a friend of mine has the Pioneer DDJ, and Serato Dj Pro was free, along with Serato Video. Sure, he paid two grand for it, but still. Another friend of mine has the Numark NV (about $700), which came with Serato DJ Pro but not Video. So you see, my beef is with the sliding scale of price. I feel like I was led to an inexpensive controller that suddenly became a $360 purchase instead of a $230 one. I am writing this to complain a little, but mostly to give a heads up if you are shopping and trying to decide on a controller. Be prepared to factor in extra money for the software that may initially appear free. That said, Serato Dj Intro is free and it's not bad at all, especially if you're a beginner. It does pretty much what actual turntables would do and sorts your music libraries just like Pro. It's just that, if you want to get into the more complex but extremely fun and useful aspects of Serato DJ, there's no question that you need Pro. I also hear that Serato Video is great, and that comes with the Pro purchase (for this controller at least). This review would be 5 stars if the sliding-scale pricing for the software wasn't such a bummer. If you believe my position to be invalid (hey who knows) then consider it 5 stars. Back to the thing itself: I love it. I unboxed it last night when I got home and it worked straight away. I read some complaints about plastic construction but it's solid; the wheels, faders and buttons are standard. Only the knobs feel a little cheap. This is going to be perfect for what I want to do: have the ability to set up the laptop and Mixtrack anywhere in the house to mess around, and maybe do a party here and there. I was a pro DJ in the 90s and still love to mix and record, and I find that this is a modest yet legit piece of equipment to do it with.

This is a fantastic mixer and definitely gets 5 stars. I am currently running this mixer with my iPad. I had to buy a few extra accessories to accomplish this however. The lighting to USB cord as well as a powered USB hub because the iPad can't deliver enough current to run the mixer. I'm using the "DJ player" app by iMect Ltd. the app was $20 but it comes preloaded with the Midi map for this mixer so it was basic plug and play. Only downside is you have to experiment with each knob and fader to see what it controls in the app. This took me about 30 minutes to get a handle for the basic stuff yet I'm still discovering new things each time I play. The mixer is very sound the sliders work great. The rubber cue buttons aren't a squishy kind of rubber button like you would find on say an novation launch pad. The tops are a little firmer and almost a solid plastic. Using it with the iPad allows me the comfort of having all my music but until I upgrade my computer and install serato on it I can't fully uncap the potential of this mixer. Great product. This is my second numark mixer. (I have the numark mixdeck as well and it's still going strong.) highly recommended for beginner DJs and it's size makes it super easy to do small gigs and helps cut down on stuff I need to drag around with me.

la verdad q es lo q me esperaba! estube leyendo por internet, y la gente hablaba muy bien de ella! y ahora soy yo kien habla bien de ella! calidad precio excepcional!!

I got this last week. I used to DJ years ago with 1210s and various mixers, including Numark, which is why the brand attracted me (they were always good quality products). I did a bit of research and watched videos on youtube (I would advise this to get a feel for this product) and decided this was the right product for me because: 1. I don't want to buy CDs, so digital is great for me 2. The other similar Numark release (with IPOD dock) is no use to me as you can't mix from your ipod 3. The functionality, reviews and price are all attractive IMHO. 4. Numark = great reputation and the Mixtrack 1 had a good name So the product arrived and I got a few tunes from an online store and got going. It really is great fun. The "synch" function does feel a bit like "cheating" for an old school vinyl DJ like me, but it is actually great as I haven't played for years and this means you can focus on the actual mixing. It isn't perfect anyway, so the DJ skill is still required. And you can do it all manually too. The product looks great and feels good. It is responsive and easy to use. It comes with a link to get Serato DJ Intro software, which is also quite easy to pick up. There is so much to do and learn, like how to use looping properly.....but that is all part pf the fun and not essential. I could give this nothing less than 5 stars as I love it HOWEVER, there are some very important things to note before you buy, some of which may seem obvious but please read on if you are considering this from a "newbie" perspective like I was. 1. You need a computer to work this. 2. Not all computers will work well with this. My desktop is fine, my laptpop suffers from USB dropouts (looks like a common problem) 3. You can't save loops you make on the fly to a button/key 4. The software has a few bugs, I struggle to close it down properly and I have read about a few more (though don't let this put you off as it is generally very solid) 5. The software has missing functionality that you can only get if you upgrade it at a pretty high price (~$200) 6. You cannot record your set with the default software unless you upgrade it (comment above) Enjoy (if you get one!)

Ich bin zwar kein Fan von Digital Deejaying aber für eine Veranstaltung musste ich mir so etwas zulegen. Bin positiv überrascht von der Qualität, frühere Numark Geräte waren definitiv schlechter verarbeitet! Auch das einrichten auf meinem MACBook und Traktor Scratch Pro 2 war sehr einfach und hat auf Anhieb funktioniert! Da ich sonst nur mit Pioneer CDJ 2000 arbeite war das kleine Jogweel eine große Umstellung, aber ich denke der Vergleich ist etwas unfair. Alles in allem für diesen Preis ein Top Teil!

やはり入門向けコントローラですね！ 凄くイイです。ソフト付属で機能も多いです！慣れればMixが簡単に出来ます！ 使いやすさで言えば本当に使いやすい。 PCDJやるならこれですね！やっぱりNumarkはいいですね！値段も高くないし
