Opinions on this mixer.....

Well, I know probably it is not that great......but I got it at a great price with a pair of Technics MK3Ds (with needles, etc......$700 USD)....

The mixer is American DJ Q-3433, I haven't heard much about this mixer



and the specs:
Fader "Q" start
Balanced XLR outputs
Rotary Kills -30dB for treble and mids
3 Phono, 4 lines, 3 AUX and 3 mic
Silver brushed aluminum face plate
Feather Fadertm crossfader
Gain each channel
Split Cue monitor
Zone w/ treble and bass control
Rotary Kills -35dB for bass on each channel

any thoughts or experiences with this mixer....please let me know!!!

Thanx!!

never used one, but from the specs it seems pretty cool for such a deal.

i think that YOU should be the one to share your thoughts or experiences with this mixer...

its on its way from Cali at the moment and I'm new to mixing, meaning this my first set of TTs and my first mixer.....(i.e..rookie!)

my main thing against this mixer 9(though I've never used it) is that it doesn't have gain LEDs for each of the channels. This will make it difficult to make the volume levels of your two channels that you will mix together difficult. You can add this on as an aftermarket item, though I'd get a mixer with it build it.

it has leds! there's a button next to the main out leds, when you press it you got the dB level of two of the channels... (don't know which, probably the ones using the crossfader every time)

hope that helped, Abbas, we're gonna find out whether it's good or not, no matter how roockie you are (being a roockie isn't bad, everyone was a roockie once). in a short period of time you'll know .

wish ya all da best...
