Warning shot, reminds me more, do it several months anyway, and many evenings.

Did you tried many other models before buying it? *

Dvs only in the cross pack, a (small) range below anyway.

What is so special that you love the most, least?

The "+":
Stability, effects, cue, loops, beatgrid (although binding), twelve o'clock simple mapping and offering tons of possibilities, the A10 which is a killer. In short all the components of the pack both hardware and software side.

The "-"
Frankly I do not know, everything is so configurable and comprehensive than what is not love, well we use it where it is removed ^. We're just going to talk about SHIFT difficult to install if the computer is not connected to the internet.

Excellent, although I do not remember the exact amount of purchase, it is a investissment SUSTAINABLE.

Without any hesitation, serato does not attract me at its interface and the only soft at the same level is traktor.
