Value For Money : Excellent
-For how long have you been using it?
* About a year

-Did you try many other models before getting this one?
* No it's my first CD player, but got a Numark CDX yesterday and I can now compare a minimum.

-Most
* The number of effects and quality
* A pitch to + / - 100% working well
* A glossy design quite nice though very nice plastic buttons (but that will not please everyone
* Fairly easy access, no menu everything is in front.
* The snap disc and its delicious blue-violet diode:)

The least-
* A manual-draw with lots of spelling mistakes. Resourcefulness required to use this board.
* Despite its name, it is totally NOT made for scratching (the jog wheel continues to turn if you do not stop at just the right place)
* Compared with the CDX, the simulated sound of scratching is not really consistent (if you turn the jog wheel has the same speed as the music (in scratch mode) you will not hear your music)
* No stutter button and banks sampler too limited (even if it's a good idea)
* Some problems in understanding the files in the CD-RW multisession.
* Effect parameters not easy to change during the session.

-Value for money?
* First launched at 500 Euros (price abused) and dropped to 299, not for the scratch (I had bought expressly for but it was a mistake) I think it is appropriate for DJs who mix and need quite a bit of a sampler + effects grouped into a plate. On this point I find it wrong. Good value for money but (radotons) not made for scratching.

-Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
No (why always the same eh), but I'll still keep it to make mixes and as a CD player back to scratch it with my CDX: it's still good practice.
