« Numark CDMix 1 »
Published on 09/30/06 at 15:00I've been a DJ for several yrs now. Have owned the cdmix 1 and the cdmix2 -- the benefit of the cdmix2 was that it had anti-shock---no skipping ..whereas cdmix1 does not .. I preferred everything else about the cdmix1 but had already sold it and sold my cdmix2 as well I now run with a pioneer setup djm3000 and cmx 3000 -- wish i'd kept one of the numarks to have as a backup --
don't remember what I payed -but it was a reasonable price --under $300
pros -easy layout -very portable..
no anti-shock or anti-skip. Slow to start up --but so is my pioneer. I would like to have had more input choices..and ability to have more mics
generally good--was able to replace one of the cd drives myself--so also easy to fix ... there are cases available now for it that work great--cover of case can double as cd storage
overall a great backup mixer--only thing lacking is the skip protection ..I do miss having it and am considering which numark model to have on hand as backup --preferred cdmix 1 to cdmix2 but haven't tried out the cdmix3
