Allen & Heath Xone 92 or Xone 62
almost the same display....effects are not the same
2 filters on each
very easy to use
killer sound
the Xone v6 is nice to but not any club can affort a 10 grand mixer |

If I had to pick what the next replacement mixer it would be, it would be the new DJM1000 or maybe another DJM they bring out, simply for the fact its a Pioneer and they will give them to the high end clubs for free. |

i'm going to stop you right there
unless your name is digweed or van buuren it's highly doubtful you'll make any significant money in a short amount of time
it's great as a hobby and a side gig, but always have a good job/backup plan as your main source of income
unless you have a couple residencies that combine to make up a good income, but then if you're playing out that much, most of that money is being re-invested back into records |

Thanks for all the insight guys...
One question yet: Has anyone found what could emerge as the new "standard" mixer for clubs?
Thanks all, Cheers,
RJT (Patiently waiting for his new DJM 500...) |
here in NYC its the Rane Rotary. Almost every big club has it as their main mixer, or at least an optional one.
I would love to see the Xone 92 popping up in club booths, but right now the Rane seems to be the mixer of choice. |

And 'round here, the Rane rotary is king. Stick with your DJM500 if you like it. |

You should not have rushed into buying another DJM because accidents happen, but they are a great oppertunity to upgrade. I had a major house fire over the summer where I lost everything but my records, and so I did a lot of research and found the best deals on the newest stuff.
If I were you, I would now stick with the DJM because, honestly, you've already bought and unless you're up for going through eBay again and possibly losing money, reselling is a pain in the ass. |
