All user reviews for the Behringer DDM4000

The Behringer Digital Pro Mixer DDM 4000 is a pretty decent mixer. When I purchased it I was expecting a lot better, I have used other Behinringer products in the past and they have always created affordable products for what you are looking for but most of them are baseline and nothing special. That’s what this mixer was too me, just a baseline unit. Price is good, but the quality isn’t great there are a few other mixers that you can get for about the same price as this one that are better quality and have more options.

UTILIZATION

This Mixer has 2 Microhpone impurts and they have Gain Eq, and a few FX that you can use. You have some BPM synchronized knobs and a crossfader start options. One thing I like a lot about this mixer that I feel some other mixers lack is there is a button that you can push that will restore your previews mixer settings that you have used before. This is great because you don’t have to go through and do all of the same stuff that you have done before on your mixer. Never seen another model that can do it quite like the Behringer Digital Pro Mixer DDM4000 can, its pretty simple.

SOUNDS

No hiss generated, eq was simple nothing to complex

OVERALL OPINION

Overall the Mixer is pretty good, its high quality and it has a ton of creative tools and an ok layout that will take some getting use to, but like I said before this isn’t something that you should get if you are a working dj, because there are other models out on the market that will blow this one out of the water for around the same price. Benhringer always delivers affordable products though, so for that reason is why I gave this mixer a try. I will give any company that has a good name a try over one that I have never tried before.

Two mic inputs, 3 band eq, beat synced sampler, 4 efx sections, full crossover, midi control, Stereo out. 32 bits. Also has most other standard features you would expect. The beat and BPM features are impressive. Also the crossover features are very functional and come in handy if you like that sort of thing.

UTILIZATION

This is my "beater" mixer. I bought it without doing a whole lot of research. I needed a unit under $500 that I could drag with me when I was in a hurry. A friend recommended this. I'll start with what I like about it. The inputs are good and I never have an issue with a lack of any of them. I don't even use all 4 channels usually. Every so often I will have an odd situation that calls for an extra channel or 2 so it's good to have as an option. Fading between that many channels can get crazy if you don't know what you're doing but the layout of the ddm is pretty sensible. For newcomers who have used an actual mixer board before, the DDM is moreso like a real mixer than other "DJ" mixers I've found. For a guy like me coming from a live audio background I find this to be great. Although there's something to be said for a unit like this that can sometimes feel like it's trying too hard to be 2 different things sometimes. Just something to keep in mind.

Now here's what I don't like. First of all my sub out doesn't work and never did. The fader sliders feel wrong to me. I'm not sure how to explain this other than saying they just aren't very comfortable to use. The tolerances are too tight? Also the gain meters on my unit don't show up too well unless it's very dark. I guess this isn't a huge deal since most of the venues I go to are fairly dark but still it's annoying. Other than that though I like this unit. The buttons feel good. and the knobs are okay.

SOUNDS

Sound quality is surprisingly good. I find that Behringer stuff usually has a pretty good level of quality with sound while the hardware suffers more. Obviously my sub out not working is a bother. The eq is just okay. Nothing great but it works. I've never had any hiss issues. I know someone told me it had a built in noise husher or something but I didn't see anything about that in the manual.

OVERALL OPINION

Like most products, it has to last, and considering the amount of times I have dragged this mixer around town, I'm impressed that it's lasted. It seems to me that Behringer stuff that breaks, is going to break very soon after buying it, and then it will never mess up again. Fortunately mine is mostly functional after 2 years of use. It's not the best mixer I own but for the price I like it. Well kind of. Honestly I feel like this unit should be more in the $300 range. Yes the features are killer but it's behringer...

Is rack? Yes it is rack, over the brackets are provided.

An effects section is integrated? Yes but the effects are very classic and uneven.

MIDI compatible but no usb, midi in, out & Thru therefore provide a MIDI interface, the table is also provided with a sampler but remains very gadget.

Cons by the connector is complete but has seen its price all the same can regret the absence of "Send" but the sound is clearly good and the eq's more than correct.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is simple? So simple & intuitive.

The manual is clear and sufficient? Clear & complete.

The usual functions are they easily accessible? Once taken the habit, yes.

SOUNDS

The console is transparent? Very good bass, the ULTRAMIZER clearly adds to the fishery.

The equalizer is it effective? Yes, the kill function fulfilled its role very well.

She introduced the breath? Not a breath, considering its price and ESPECIALLY reputation in the field behringer mixers, is a feat.

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it? 3 years of intensive use and not the least of seeds, a knob sizzle y 'for some time, a shot of spray and the problem disappeared.

Did you try many other models before getting this one? Yes a lot of models is not the best mixer, even far away, but it's still a good table at this price point, have to say is that many concurence.

What is so special that you like best? The sound quality eq's, MIDI compatible, connector, the ULTRAMIZER, 4 channels, the brackets supplied, its price.

Minimum: The unequal effects, the sample gadget, quality push buttons, the LEDs are blue eyes hurt.

What is your opinion about the value for the price? Simply perfect, return in a few months!

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? Over time I like to change stuff but if the budget does not allow me to see more upscale, I resume the MDD 4000, certainly in this price range, I recommend it.

What type of connectors (RCA Jack, XLR ...)?

MDD has:
-3 XLR output (left and right and subwoofer)
-3 RCA outputs including a "tape"
-2 XLR inputs
-8 RCA inputs (4 phono, 4 line)
-1 Digital output

UTILIZATION

Use

use is simple, having connainnance manual and power to use it, the mix becomes a breeze.

SOUNDS

Sounds

The DDM4000 has an exellent performance sound, it does not introduce blast.

OVERALL OPINION

Global Reviews

I use the DDM4000 for over a year. Before this one, I used a table of the non-digital brand which I am very tired quickly. Since I own the MDD I do not think of replacing it. I like its design and multiple options notement effects and effects for the microphones, the ability to record 2 samples. I did not really like the thud it makes when I change the delay effect: a loud popping sound. Apart from the high brightness blue LEDs of the equalizer of the ignition and the thump, I would do if I had the choice to go back and buy a table. I advise all people seeking the mixer DDM4000 because its price is very attractive for what it is.

Brackets 19 "provided for mounting in a rack in the same size.

Note the choice of XLR connectors RCA rather than on returns.
Only the main output XLR is equipped with all the other voice / line / phono RCA are, too bad.

UTILIZATION

I use it in mobile disco, it is quite sufficient for my use.

The potentiometers are very nice without a hitch.
The buttons kills nearly three bands of EQ and blandness are very practical when mixes.

I miss some functions compared to my old table as the PFL in return.

The effects are basic and practical, it does not constitute a box effect, but it's enough on a table.

SOUNDS

Some defects such as a facility to feedback in the voice microphone. With the same micro AC feedback in relation to my old table.

Or some bug during the recording of two sample. When recording two sample which remplice quasiement memory of the table, sometimes it is mixed together and become unusable!

The equalizer is effective and it introduces no audible breath.

Because of unpleasant feedback and problems of mixed sample, but I average rating.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost a year and no problems yet.

Like the knobs very nice, the box effect, the microphone and sampler effects when does not bug.

Like least:
- Lack of balanced XLR connectors
- Lack of a box to insert external effects such
- The PFL in return.

I do not like:
- The tendency to feedback on the voice microphone
- The sampler that bug when using any memory of the table (about 40sec for sample)

The price / quality ratio is unbeatable for the functions they provided.
It's a good restaurant to the mix, at least for the mobile disco.

Not as good as a pioneer, but for the price that fits me.

For the basic features, read the manual.

The subwoofer output with adjustable low-pass cutoff frequency is great, especially since it is possible to filter out the main high pass is ideal for not burn out its satellites for example.

Double box end, that's great too, but we can not put the 2nd effect on the first, let me explain: Unable to filter an echo (echo only) with the other box effects such (unlike the pioneer from djm700), even if possible, when adding the echo effect, to choose only MID or HI or LOW, or combinations of these 3 parameters, but it is less class is a filter in which we change the cutoff ...

On the effects yet, there are many who are "unusable" for my taste, it's too toy .. but the principal still very much set.

On the mic, it makes the effects of madness = D but it seems to me that the microphone has a gain too high, even at minimum means into the microphone ..

UTILIZATION

General configuration ... so there, when you get the table, its scary! but after 3 minutes of use we realize that the many buttons are there to make our lives easier, but it remains gadget, except you have more than a finger because you can press a button without having to turn the knobs ..

In this review, I would not call it MIDI because I understand nothing.
I do not speak of the sampler, because I do not use it in mixes, but it is relatively easy to use, at least he seems.

The manual is very clear, everything easily.

All the usual functions are easily accessible.

If I have one regret about using this table is on its headphone poorly studied, but I stuck the wire between the table and the deck right, his pass.

The "it glows in the dark is a garland say it's horrible," bah I do not think it's so horrible as that.

SOUNDS

The equalizer is sublime, at least, there is no sound, and any cutoff frequencies are adjustable!

Of breath, with plates, I have no .. When I plug my computer, but it's fear ... I am with her my stanton table as well, and also with a DJM700, we can not deliver the blame on the DDM4000 (land problem apparently at my computer).

Edit: On RCF ART 312A, it introduces a lot of breath, probably had the greatest power in the acute than my previous speakers .. So I drop the note from October to June because the tables and even pioneer stanton M.201 introduce no breath on that kind of speakers .. And the spirit in service, it's still annoying ..

OVERALL OPINION

I use it only for a month, I can not say anything about the quality and longevity of components.

I try, then, gemini, numark, stanton pioneer DJM600 and DJM700.

The peculiarities that I love most: price, use the connectivity
The specifics I like least: No true filter effects (see top), headphone jack misplaced, breath, here.

The value for money, not to mention longevity because I know nothing, bah I do not think there is no better ..

With experience, so she slams fast, I will not go that choice, otherwise, may be the most promising material for safety, but I hope it will not for years that I have to redo a choice . If I were the flying, with my current budget, although I will ever be the choice.

For specifications check out the site or other opinion


UTILIZATION

It is clear that when one unpacks it says "yeah was still" in 30 seconds but you realize that everything just flows.
I'll just say that there is a duplicate button at Kils (configurable) there at the crossfader and knobs.

SOUNDS

Good the ba euhhh RAS, no breath and yet I do not have a crazy system, but it leaves my point what he bar!
eq nickel.

OVERALL OPINION

I can use it for a more than 2 years regularly and extensively on weekends She also evenings and no crash (luckily I tell you!) But knowing a little apprehend mark the first time.
Good quality / price I would even say very good if I take into account what is still the road, despite everything that I inflicted.

Is rack?
Rackable not

RCA and XLR connectors
What is the accuracy of sampling (bits / kHz)?
32bit
How many lanes, bus, auxiliary sends, returns ...)?
4 channel 2 microphones
The parametric equalizer is it?
parametric equalizer and digital
After years of professional mix and use a djm 600, I decided to change tables, I look on AudioFanzine stupor and all opinions on the DDM4000 are very positive.
everyone seems to marvel at the DDM4000 rated 5 stars.
after having read everything I decided to follow the advice and buy one the price is less than a pioneer (AC plays for behringer).
all happy to test the ddm 4000 I leave in the evening with, after two hours of animation and the first cracks knob triggered increases its strange.
the two microphone channels even lowered the minimum does not cut the mic so you hear the sound of microphone feedback in the forums.
the famous box has effect is catastrophic, very bad.
short after all the same 4 evenings and much patience and give up buying a new table from Pioneer.
Thank you nick dj who gets off on this table and I would say just before coming to advise on sites PRO tunes out your tongue in your mouth.
it avoids making the purchase of real dj cochoneries.


UTILIZATION

configuration very simple, however the digital equalizer is very incomplete, is little more the master digital equalizer 2 and not master1 which is the one most used.
the manual is of Chinese puzzles, happily that the tutorials on the web are very well done.
functions are galleys to find between all the lights sometimes yellow and sometimes blue

SOUNDS

the sound is variable every time it's in the bass and treble suddenly appear and break everything.
the equalizer is no non-existent, the equalized digital treble and bass only has to believe that Behringer is not familiar with the medium.
there is no breath but if you have a microphone you always volume into the microphone, because the volume pot does not cut the sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I used 4 nights and then I took a nervous breakdown I pay this table 400 € nonetheless.
I ended up buying a Pioneer.
AC before I use ecler nuo, pioneer DJM800, DJM700, DJM600 and djm 3000
Yamaha 01V, numark 920,
the feature I like least is all that table is eliminated and does not even deserve to be marketed.
Never in my life I will take the behringer is the fake junk to dj sandbox.

table rack, 4 votes, effect, XLR and RCA connection, the total what! with even noon!

UTILIZATION

this table is fairly simple stuff of connection function and button, but you get used very quickly, for my part I used the manual because I had no idea of how the table (the effect and screens), unlike the astronomical number of button this table is very ventilated and it is easy to mix with! the only downside is the headphone jack a bit misplaced.

SOUNDS

EQ very effective and it even seems that it is adjustable, a stunning sound from the other table of the mark (especially with the ULTRAMIZER activate) I is not heard of breath on the table at the same time it is 100 % digital

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since August, before the table had naturally test the Denon DNX 1100, A & H Xone 22, korg km 404 and Reloop rmx 40. is that I love the most, such functionality, these many connections, according to its south, the possibility of the rack and especially the price! At least I do not really see the headphone jack has misplaced. a super value price for 300 euros we have everything we need! effect of the sampler's all here! with experience
YES YES YES! nothing better than DDM4000 and two reloop contour!

See Behringer's website.

UTILIZATION

Easy to use for experienced users. A few hours are enough to manage the device... It's great considering the numerous functions it provides. The main functions are easily accessible and the user's manual is very clear.

SOUNDS

It doesn't add any noise in spite of my 10-year old sound system.

The EQs are as effective as Pioneer EQs and their response curve is very progressive.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using it for four months.

Pros: Sound quality, overall power. Behringer surprised me with this mixer! I expected an unreliable device in demanding situations. The mixer works perfectly even when I use two complex effects, two simultaneous samples and all outputs. It's a great improvement compared to previous Behringer products.

Cons: the blue LEDs are too bright!

Very nice value for money. You'll hardly find a better feature/price ratio.

Based on my experience I would certainly buy it again. The durability of the mixer is still to be seen... Talk to you in one year
