All user reviews for the Stanton Magnetics SMX-401

I want to correct the opinion of plopoi saying that this table has an assignable crossfader with curve adjustment and adjustable sliders which unfortunately is not true.
The cross has a gentle curve from channel 1 to channel 3, channel 2 is insensitive to the crossfader. So, it is not possible to scratch with this mixer.

UTILIZATION

This table is a good, simple, I have 8 years is solid and fairly complete but not suitable for all uses because of the curve of XFADER.

SOUNDS

The Eq is effective, there is more of killers on channels 1 and 3.
No breath

OVERALL OPINION

L'argus is 81 € and at that price it is a very appropriate choice for a mobile disco DJ electro Dj see.

The + + +

3 channels - Assignable crossfader and switchable, independent control of the response curve of the cross and track.

2 MIC

View-meter control on each channel and output (except GIF).

Send and management of an external effect rack.

Filtering by three-way channels.

Advanced Management of CUE ...


sides of ---

Rackable yet at risk of losing access to the front to control the configuration of the cross and volume Cue
An integrated power supply at the table would have been really appreciated.

This has been part ... RAS

UTILIZATION

A table clear, legible everything has its place and falls naturally under the fingers.

design into two parts promotes reading.

SOUNDS

Table with a clear, fairly neutral on my monitor.

No breath in use "intelligent", it becomes significant if the abuse of the gain on the output levels. No surprise here.

Filtering is very efficient and very clean.

OVERALL OPINION

Used for 2 months, I have long hesitated to invest in newer models but does not regret my choice.

Quality is go ...

It is rack mountable. 2 microphone inputs, 2 outputs amps, Penny and Giles crossfader.

UTILIZATION

The manual is in English, very simple functions, ergonomics practice.

SOUNDS

Console transparent. The sound is real.

OVERALL OPINION

I just received this table is ... Nickel. Ah it feels good. Sound? Very good. Easy to use, the cross fader glide, the knobs have a good race, the equalizer corrects really low, mid, high or cut completely. The machine does not reproduce the breath, in addition to two microphones can be connected, so cool, because it is rare on the three-way tables. The only regret is that the headphone volume is too low for me and then I become deaf. Ah I think it heats a little bit. Yes RAPORT the money is just 385 euros I paid for it now remains to be seen if she will accompany me for a long weekend in the evening.
But I would not do more this election because the M 304 is too pretty. Well it remains for me to work with and within a few months I would give you a further notice.

This is a table rack 10p, 3WAY 2mic exit 1master 1cabine 1rec, 6entrees lines 3phonos 2mic a combo XLR jacke 1jack between effect output, 2 headphone jack6.35 and mini jack, RCA connectors for all but dubbed jack master and effect e / s.

UTILIZATION

Getting started with very simple, all is well separated and well placed buttons, MIC 2, and 2 headphones are aussi.cross facade penny fad but a very flexible type of mix damage threshold.
for headphones posibility to have one way or mix with mini cross handy for mixing, but the problem is the volume too low a review ...
manual clear.

SOUNDS

The console is quite correct the level, probably with the techno sst Stanton REDUCING breath and sound divers.l '3-Band EQ and effective for me, kill the three bands so far left more buttons and kills fugitive permanent way 1et3 care when the actions in some positions intermediate the sound is cut completely.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this table for 3 years, what I like most is the look, the work area very accessible and many of its 2 mics. what I like least, without regulating and cross over all or nothing, and the headset volume very low.
value for great price.
if the new cross has a stop adjustable and PFL is no greater problem ...

While some might want a bpm counter it's really not that big a deal not to have one (trains your ear :P). 3 channels, crossfades between 1 + 3, selectable CD/TT with both inputs, letting you connect 3 decks and 3 cd players. smooth faders. the kill switches are the only real problems, and even then i just use the eq.

199 USD

UTILIZATION

Very very easy and intuitive to use. you really get a feeling of the total output (there's a colored "master" LED volume display) and everything's smooth and precise.

pretty solid construction, the knobs feel a _tiny_ bit flimsy but that's probably just me. i keep a dust cover over it (made from the box it came in) and haven't had any problems. it does get hot after a while (i.e. 2hrs+ ) but i didnt notice any loss of quality.

SOUNDS

Very good quality, unfortunately my monitoring equipment doesn't give me the full picture. slight scratchiness when using the kill switches, however.

OVERALL OPINION

A great buy and a steal at 199 bucks this is a great mixer. enjoy! a real joy to use.
