Neither. Im personally not a huge fan of pioneer mixers, the only pioneers i would buy are the djm-909 and djm-3000. The efx500 is a good effects processor and i do like it more than a kaoss pad. As for mixer, I couldn't say enough good things about my rane empath. It's effects sends/returns are awesome. And sound quality/ergonomics/construction are all top notch.

it depends on your setup.

the djm600/3000 has the obvious advantage of being a 4 channel mixer, which means you can add lots of things to your setup as and when you want.

the efx-500 however, is a miles better fx unit than the one built into the djm600. the actual effects are the same, but it is much more controllable, and you can do 2 effects at once as the two halves of the unit are effectively seperate chained effects units.

the djm3000 is a beautiful mixer to use, the 19" layout means everything is right where you want it... if i were you, i would buy the 3000 then get an efx500 once you have saved up a little more money. then you can do 3 effects at once!

its an envious dilema :p

nah i got a djm300 and two turntables.. i dont realli plan on getting any CDJ's so the 300 is alrite for now.. i just wanted some effects n was wondering if i should go for the efx500 or sell the 300 and get a 600 or something.. im leaning more towards efx500.. n later on ill upgrade the mixer

i'll get the djm 600
coz its effects are alright and I don't really need an extra effects box coz I'm spinning mainly trance not techno or dnb
