Analog mixer 4-way, 3-way teams of phono XLR outputs.
3-band EQs full cut.
FX 2 in / out assignable.
USB 2.0 Sound Card 20-channel (8 + 2in / 2out 8 + @ 44.1kHz-96kHz)
227 contrles MIDI.
2 VCA filters A & H assignable.
Between XLR
Headphone out in 3.5 and 6.35

No equalizer on the master nor the booth or headphones. So prvoir one or more paramtriques / graphics.

USE

The beast is very team, so complex, especially at management level sound card in-out / analog in-out, but the manual is comprehensive and very clear. (I do not know if it is available in franais).
The layout of the buttons is Idale. The quality faders and knobs is the best. It is possible to change the crossfader by P & G. The assignment of the cross for each channel is via a small switch 3 positions (X / O / Y) not practical at all, especially in the pnombre.
The MIDI contrles as the knobs / faders mixer operation are both firm and flexible, quality of so.
The meters are very accurate and a good size.

SONORITS

The audio quality is top. No buzz, hum, blast. The sound card 24B / 96Khz is crystalline. The analogue inputs ditto.
Just a little jitter filters A & H without input and very high volume headphone / master. (A table is made out of her ... but must find a default)
The EQs are of very good quality, and cut the infinite.


NOTICE GLOBAL

After 5 months of testing, I'm very happy, and saw the look of my friends over, even proud
It must be said that in addition to being a very good table, it's a beautiful table (bright black light).

The lack of EQ output is harmful if the sound does not possde EQ, but it's an ultra pro table, so the rack of effects and EQs must be Introduced as it should .dropoff window It also lacks a little EQ on the headphone output. I finally there's also the solutions.

Concerning the use, I Traktorise with, and I am persuaded that 4D is the best tool for a.
After you mapp all dsires functions, workflow is impeccable.
Considering the price / robustness / functionalities, I do not believe in me Sparer sitt.

it has everything you need for fun in mix / live and prep model. connectivity pro compatible sound card traktor scratch co

UTILIZATION

great thought table, set aside some time to do a personal mapping for traktor. The manual is clear and well explained.
Part tablede mix: everything comes to hand and the knobs are good, its simplicity allows to quickly switch from traktor Live and synths.
midi controllers: to map as needed, knobs and fader reagents and precise, jogs lack precision

SOUNDS

the sound & h, eq super effective monitoring breath a little but nothing bad in sound (for which it is intended)
The sound is warm and round it knocks, filters and eq are terrible
with the tracks and master to 0 db, the master knob at 14h I sleep a djm 800 cleat

OVERALL OPINION

exellent value for money, no complaints about the sound and quality for the mapping c is a questionof taste, personally I prefer to customize it and it suits me perfectly. the lack of effect is compensated by u sound quality, filters and the top eq

I wanted a mixer with at least part of separating
So this table is perfect for my travels in bar atmosphere
I use it with laptop

The notebook is vraimment a 1 st prize (399 euros)
Sempron 2.5 GHz
3GB RAM
250 HDD
win xp
I optimize for Traktor Pro

When I have vraimment need more midi control I 'assigns a mpd 24 akai



UTILIZATION

I have installed the latest drivers on the manufacturer's website

I use it exclusively with Traktor Pro

With 4 decks of traktor + 4FX (including 1 and 3 chained advanced)

Frequency 44.1 the process runs at 50% while the bottom has
I was beyond 70% (predict a more powerful pc)

latency is 5 ms

SOUNDS

Installation is simple and effective one-click and monitor indicators

To provide for the mapping in traktor putting hands in the pie
vraimment sucks because it is (I personally made a 2h + mapping .....)

The manual is in English (I have to look for a manual french but not find) it's still simple

OVERALL OPINION

I didn 't try many high-end model (I have had the numark analog, behringer ddm 4000 ...)
Eter J've seduced by the Xone 4d

The price is in the same areas that the big brands (Pioneer, Denon ...) has 200 or 300 euros Near
for use with my + functions noon (Senior I)
and of course audio quality level that is the heavy (I mix electro house)
I will ever choose NOT Nonon ....... as long as it's not cowardly

I am building a blog dedicated to xone 4d

UTILIZATION

The beast is very fitted, so complex, especially at management level sound card in-out / analog in-out, but the manual is comprehensive and very clear. (I do not know if it is available in French).
The location of the buttons is ideal. The quality of the faders and knobs are the best. It is possible to change the crossfader with P & G. The assignment of the cross for each channel is via a tiny switch 3 positions (X / Y / Y) not practical at all, especially in the dark.
MIDI controls such as knobs / faders on the mixer are operating at both firm and flexible, so quality.
The meters are very accurate and good size.

SOUNDS

The audio quality is top. No buzz, hum, breath. The sound card is 24B/96Khz crystal. The analog inputs idem.
Just a little jitter filters A & H without input and high volume headphone / master. (A table is made out of her ... but you have to find a defect)
The EQs are very well made, and intersect at infinity.

OVERALL OPINION

After 5 months of testing, I'm very happy, and seeing the look of my top friends, even proud
It must be said that besides being a very good restaurant is a nice table (long live the black light).

The lack of EQ output is harmful if the PA does not have an EQ, but it's a table ultra pro, so the rack of effects and EQs must be present as it should. It also lacks a little EQ on the headphone output. M'enfin again y 'solutions.

Regarding the use, I Traktorise with, and I remain convinced that the 4D is the best tool for that.
After mapping all the desired functions, the workflow is impeccable.
Considering the price / durability / functionality, I do not part with it anytime soon.
