Value For Money : Excellent
I bought this table there are 10 days.

The table is not rack and a highest DJM.
Table 4 voices + 2 microphones, Send-Return for external effects
All voices are assignable crossfader A or B or Main.

There is no box effect but 2 analog filters
You can also use the PC connection to add effects on PC and send the sound in the table.

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple with a laptop and Vista (attention retrieve the latest drivers on the Mackie website).

For cons, I lost 10 days due to a bad firewire included with the table 6-4. Buy a cable 6-4 and it works without additional firewire card.

The table is very well designed, light Treble / med / low can well find their way into the night.
The VU meters are very accurate with voice and to verify sync.
BUMP on the switch filter are very practical and functional.

The manual is very specific and French.

SOUNDS

The sound is studio quality, Mackie what.
Nothing to say, some little pop on the filters if switche too fast.

No breath.

The equalizers are very effective (complete cut) and filters can help to mix 2 tracks.

OVERALL OPINION

- For how long have you been using it? 10 days
- What thing do you like most/least about it? The firewire connection.
It is a box at any time make a PC connected to:
Fruity Loops ** ** It has 4 separate outputs and 2 mic input (5ms latency)
Virtual DJ ** ** separate outputs for each deck + one for the samples.
You can also use the CD timecodes: it works nickel.
Mix with CDJ ** ** Different effects voice over PC Fruityloops example
It can also record sound mix on 2-4 separate tracks.

As least, I would say the headphone jack in front, which complicates the rack.

- Did you try many other models before getting this one?
DJM 500-800-1000 ECLERC NUO4
No tables are different, because it is the only DJ table with a Firewire connection. Other brands merely an input and an output, therefore, impossible to mix on 2-3 votes or have different effects on each voice.

- What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Excellent, because it replaces a table with DJ analog filters and a studio table.

- Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
Without hesitation. I do not understand why she is not popular elsewhere
