Well, if I did, I would most likely get the extension. I have only been at this for little over a year now and have yet much to learn (your best 'use the force', yoda comment, or anything related to starwars here). I think for the time being I will look into something that has the fader already built into the main unit. Although, I did go out to the Rane site and looked at some commentary on other forums. There is quite a nice following.

OMG don't show me things like that Lance! It makes me soil myself.
Let us also not forget that Steve is nowhere near refined enough to use a rotary mixer. T'would be a bit akin to G.W. mixing deep/prog/minimal/tech/sprinkle of electro house on a rotary mixer.

ehhh?
Steve Dash is the founder and brains behind Phazon Audio and former co-owner of Twilo... sound engineer at Paradise Garage. He is not a DJ. He is, in fact, a former electrical/NASA engineer who designed and intalled the 1st Phazon rig at Twilo in NYC in 1996. He reconfigures and rebuilds Urei mixers with gold connections and highly conductive insulated wiring that does not bleed energy. Currently, Phazon designes their own mixers, and Dash has rebuilt a few Rane rotaries. But, the Urei remains the best.
Dash is the man who revolutionized how clubs sound... he puts you in the studio with the producer it is clear.
Basically, you can buy a custom built Phazon Audio mixer for $10-$12K... I'm just sayin'

Not Steve Dash. A Phazon mixer is a little over the top.

It is what it is... A mixer is a mixer. You give it the use you desire, a rotary mixer works well with any genre of electronic music...

The scientist cannot capture the whole cosmos in thought. In his mind he makes a kind of microcosm, which we see as an analogue of the cosmos. In this way we try to get a feeling for the whole. The artist, I suppose, gets a feeling for the whole some other way.”

You need to get yourself a Phazon. I mean a Gemini.
