Allen & Heath Xone:4D Photos and Videos

ive just bought one myself...fiddly as **** but once you get it...your in there...filters are slick as you'd expect and the midi controls need a bit of practice to get to the level you want to be at...but its all about the sound..this shit is ,made for techno!!!!!

If you like your mixing unexciting and restrained, NO HASSLE ! If, however, you'd like to do anything beyond the likes of what Sasha and Digweed do - you'll be needin' to trade up :-)

And that filter, how completely HORRIBLE does that sound ?

Such an awesome piece of kit..... Except when it isn't (which is all the time)

I've got a DJM800 which has its flaws but at the end of the day it's NOT A TOTAL PIECE OF SHIT !

I just don't get why anyone likes/uses allen and heath - it's kinda like having a girlfriend that you don't bum, where IS the point ?

PS: That last line was a joke. Kinda.

in my opinion i think what your sayin is bollocks..a &h are wikid and i think your just bummed cos you cant afford one...

stick a kaoss pad with it and you got a pure dj set up...all the trimmings...djm's break far to easy!!

liebing and speedy j cant be wrong...can they?

(IMO)

Actually I bought 10 the other day, just threw them straight in the bin.

JUST CAUSE I CAN.

Nah, it's clearly a personal thing - I find them flimsy and just UNuser friendly. I also use a coupla kaoss pads with my DJM - No problems there :-O

I just don't like the sound of them tbh - dunno, perhaps past experiences have coloured my opinion of them but MEH.

:haha:

i got an a+h and i can see why people don't like em but the sound is absolute quality. i have it running into my computer via a crappy NOISY behringer europap piece of shit and when I record on 48khz it sounds clearer, crisper and generally awesome!

That does it for me at the end of the day. That was what persuaded me above the pioneer djm 800.

Oh and I probably stand alone when I say this but i like the 4 eq's.

horses for courses though

so true!!

Never been a fan myself. I'm still in love with the Pioneer EQ's!

Played couple of times on it but i still stick on my DJM800 no matter what, when and how.
