Any of you got an idea??

Thnx Bob

I use a Behringer Ultralink Pro for exactly that purpose. If you don't need EQ, and don't mind the rack format check it out, because the sound quality is excellent and you can pick a new one up for about £75-£80.

go with the behringer 200. i originally bought it to hoook up to 2 soundcards on my comp (beofre i bought other equipt) and it worked great.

That one looks good, thanks for the reply.

I just looked at the Numark dm1001x, the guy in the store said that that one is very good.
I don't really know what the difference is between those two.

True, it looks good too...

But, its a little more expensive too, and it has things you probably dont want, like phono inputs and a 3 band EQ
I think this one's about 150€

***what comes out of your sound card is a LINE signal***

They're both good mixers, the difference is that the Numark dm1001x is a scratch mixer and the vmx200 not really, but that doesn't make any real difference. The Numark dm1001x has 2 line, 4 phono and 1 mic input, so you should be fine with it, just make sure you connect the to the line inputs and not the phono ones (I assume you know why ;) )

The Numark DM1001X is about €160
The Behringer VMX200 is about €200

If someone knows one, with the same functions, which is cheaper please tell me.

The price depends on region to region of course, i found sites where the vmx was 159 and the other one was 150.

Numark DM1001X

3 channel 7 input mixer

2 Line, 4 phono, 1 mic input
Channels contain: 3-Band rotary -30dB EQ cuts, GainPanning, Rotatable input toggles, Send, and PFL cue
All active long-life ALPsTM input faders
Replaceable crossfader w/ slope & "hamster" control
Master and record outputs





Costs 151 € here. This is located in the Netherlands, so good for you, and this site is also very good to trust.

The VMX200 perfectly embodies the VMX concept, combining no more channels than you need with an impressive set of state-of-the-art performance features and typical BEHRINGER audio and build quality. Its two dual-input stereo channels allow connection of four stereo sources with top-panel selection. Each stereo channel features a gain control, an effective 3-band kill EQ with up to 32 dB of attenuation and a 45-mm ULTRAGLIDE fader with a 3-way curve switch. In addition, the VMX200 sports a dedicated mic channel with a ULN input stage, 2-band EQ and an auto-talkover function with depth control.
The PFL section is equipped with a CH-1/CH-2 balance control and a split option, which routes the channel signal to one side of the headphones and the main output signal to the other. A dual 10-segment LED level meter displays your choice of main or PFL signals. Our impressive XPQ 3D surround effect is also on board, with ON/OFF button and depth control, as well as our automatic BPM counter with Tempo Difference and Time Offset displays. A continuously variable crossfader curve control plus a crossfader reverse switch with our revolutionary tap-and-hold mechanism give you plenty of power for mixing tricks. Last but not least, the VMX200 features a professional VCA level engine for utmost fader precision and reliability.





Costs 201 € here. I don't know anything about this site thow.

You can compare the specs yourself and decide what things you find most important and whiwh one is better in YOUR opinion. For starters, the vmx hes beatcounters, you can find this important or not, if you don't want them then you can look for another mixer, because I assume they will make a part of the price.

out of those 2 go for the behringer, it's worth the extra cash cause its got a load more stuff than the numark one, it's got cuts, bpm counters and shiet

trust me on this one, unless you want something cheaper
