«  Really not bad! »

Value For Money : Excellent
For how long have you been using it?

For 2 ½ years ...

Did you try many other models before getting this one?

The Hercules MK2 home forever, and if not CD players like the Denon DNS-1000.

What thing do you like most/least about it?

The pros:
- Not too expensive for a product like this
- Configurable Keys
- Design sober
- No frills
- Efficient and easy to master
- Perfect for beginners

The -:
- Jog small and sometimes too sensitive or too little rather
- No sound card is no preview
- Buttons with effect very plastic
- Software included with (VDJ 5 Lite) totally null

What is your opinion about the value for the price?

Not too bad, but I admit it must then add the money to buy a sound card (if only for the preview!) And mixing software functional (transition to the pro version of VDJ, or purchase Traktor ...) So ultimately the quality / price takes a hit!

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?

No, I'd rather spend on the DJ Console RMX, which will at least have a sound card rather than buy cheap (100 € less than the RMX) to take a sound card (100 € for that matter) next which will add load to your PC and causing small lag!
To start is not bad, you can mix without breaking the bank ... but do not expect to use it in the evening pro!
