Xone 92 questions...

hey guys just a couple of quick questions in regards to the xone 92.
when used in conjunction with the pioneer efx unit (500 or 1000), does it take up a channel on the mixer?
also, i noticed the volume faders are VCA. the xone 62 xfader (which is VCA) had slight problems where there was a small lag time when trying to cut fast, thereby rendering the mixer useless to scratch on. are there the same problems with the 92 for the volume faders? i want to be able to "tease" tracks in by cutting them in and out fast. i don't want any sort of lag time when doing so a la denon digital mixers.
thanks in advance! |

the Xone 92 doesn't have that line/phono switch that the Denon's have that let you cut in and out real fast. |

Think he's more meaning using the faders though?  |

yes, everything i'm talking about has to do with the volume faders. i don't want to cut in and out with the line / phono switches. the denon has a problem with the volume faders in that there is a slight delay when opening and closing them fast thereby making it impossible to have precision "stabs" of music. |

| ohhh, I thought you were talking about those little toggle switches. My bad. |

Is it an actual delay (lag) or just the way the fader curve is? Like no change for a significant amount of travel, rather than an actual lag?
EDIT: As in a dead zone at the start/end of the fader curve. |

| Didn't the denon software update fix the delay problem...:conf: :conf: |

Hmmm, I think the faders on the xone 92 are perfect for fader juggling so I shouldnt be worried about that... I assure you theres no latency, atleast nothing ive noticed. The only thing I'd say is that the fader volume is not proportional like say the pioneer djm 500/600 like 0-10. On the xone the faders increase by alot within the top 1/3. Thats the only wierd thing but it actually turns out to sound better for fader whipping :D
Hope this helps :) |

This annoyed me at first on the xone models, but once you get used to it - you know it makes sense!! :D |

i have a xone 92, couldnt u just use the phono/line buttons to do the same thing? |

I have the denon...what he's talking about is an actual delay. You'd cut over, and it'd take a fraction of a second for the sound to actually change.
But denon came out with a software update for the mixer that completely fixed it. |
