My thoughts exactly. |

| Seems with each passing moment, gear designers manage to make DJing more and more complicated, and yet somehow it doesn't end up sounding much different coming out of the speakers. |

| I don't see how it looks hideous, but it's no Urei either. Sound quality is what your getting. |

Yes, Serato 2.0 will support up to 4 decks. Kind of odd though, you HAVE to have Serato supported hardware that can do this, which currently appears to only be this new mixer (and 3 decks with the SL-3).
I suspect they'll come out with a new audio interface sometime. |

| Yes. Serato 2.0 supports up to 4 decks, Ableton Live, and more. |

One of the few people I know who'll actually be able to make good use of this rig:

In fact, I'd venture a guess that he had a hand in designing it, as when Serato first came out he told me his only disappointment with it was that he still had to play regular vinyl on the remaining two decks... |

No analog freshness coming out of this bitch. |

Do we know that for sure? The mixer portion could be analog. The specs don't seem to tell.
The Xone 3D/4D has integrated soundcards, but the mixer portion is still analog. This could be similar. |
