This was the first mixer I purchased, and thus, my introduction into the world of DJing. I cut my teeth on the art of mixing on this controller. I liked it at the time, I learned to work around it's quirks and got pretty good at using it. However, once you upgrade to better equipment you realize what you're missing out with this controller. <br /> <br /> The buttons just aren't crisp and tactile like higher end gear. The start/pause/cue buttons are unreliable and need to be pressed on the right spot to work properly. The scratch feature is useless as anything more than an effect because it doesn't reliably warp the track like vinyl and it has a slight pause after you release it. The loop feature is also somewhat unreliable and contains bugs within the system. <br /> <br /> Even the balanced outputs seemed to deteriorate after time. The left side is much louder after 3 years of ownership. I actually still bring this mixer with me to gigs as a backup, but I hope that I never have to use it. It's functional, and a good way to learn the basics of DJing, but not something I would trust at paid gigs anymore. Perhaps they fixed some of the software bugs, as I purchased mine circa 2010. Is it worth the gamble?
