[NAMM] Numark NS6 DJ Controller

This dual-platter system has been designed in collaboration with Serato to borrow from the designs of Numark’s NS7FX and V7 controllerst. The wheels on NS6 deliver 3600 ticks of resolution per rotation.

NS6 contains a four-channel digital mixer that can be used with or without the computer.

Numark introduced Strip Search virtual needle drop technology to the DJ world with NS7. NS6 is said to take this one step further by adding position indicators that allow the DJ to always know track position, giving one less reason to need to look at the screen. Bi-Color LEDs also surround the wheel, providing both an indication of the Deck in control and also a Deck’s playback status. Effects can be accessed by channel.

The design of NS6 includes mouseless Serato library navigation, Key Lock, Pitch Control, manual and instant Looping and Hot Cues. New features have been added including direct access to beat grid controls and beat skip, which allows DJs to juggle the track inline with the beat so that it never loses sync.

NS6 includes a 24-bit audio interface. An array of inputs and outputs are present, including XLR outputs, Headphone out, two mic inputs, two phono inputs, four line-level inputs, and USB to connect the system to a Mac or PC.

NS6 comes with Serato’s ITCH DJ software and integrates with ITCH thanks to a collaboration between Serato and Numark.
