Have you guys heard anything about this mixer, or better yet has anyone had the opportunity to tinker with one?

I'm in the market for a new mixer, and really don't see the point in a huge flashy 4 channel such as the djm600, nor do I really think I need a 3 channel (even though this one is). I'll never have more than 2 turntables, and I think the ability to both scratch as well as mix trance is equally important.

What do you guys think? I have a terrible stanton mixer now, but it seems to be well built.

Looks like a decent mixer, but so is the DJM-600 so don't hate on multiple channel mixers.

well to be honest, stanton doesnt make a whole lot of good products.

i'm reading over the specs on this one and i was very supprised to see a pennes & giles crossfader. those are very nice! conduction plastic, good feel, lasts a long time. even has curve adjust.

doesnt seem like a bad mixer. build quality is going to be your major concern, and how the EQ's sound.

I'd go try one before you buy it..

another way i see it.. I found this box for $385 online, not including shipping. I think I would be more inclined to go with a vestax 275 or DJM300 for that sort of money. I guess with the P&G fader, and curve control, $385 isnt that bad... but the rest of the box could be mediocre.

i like this mixer

we all like that mixer shock :P

Damn, the vmx looks really sweet, havent seen or heard anything about it, but from the specs it looks like stanton is tyring to compete with the 275.

I think it looks sekzerier then the 275 also :P

i think it's more trying to take on the djm 600 and allen and heath
putting higher quality stuff
and the price tag is like 1700
