New Pioneer DJM 2000 mixer..!!!

[curly]

Ive not DJ'ed for a few years now so i might be missing the point, but for me the important aspects of a mixer are: good solid feeling faders and xfader, with no crackles, good EQ's with a center notch so they can be returned to exactly zero easily as this is how the tune is suposed to be played, and reliability this depends on how much use/abuse it's going to be getiing, ie install or is it going to be dragged around pub/clubs/fields tents/ warehouses ect.

DJ effects in my opion should be limited to loop sampling with maybe some good quality filters. Hearing some DJ putting a flanger across the mix just sounds naff to me.

Im unsure of the usefulness of multiband effects on the mixer aswell, I can see this totally destroying the spectral balance. If the person using it truly understands what they are doing with this then I feel there time would be better spent playing there own productions.

Mixers should be going BACKWARDS not FORWARDS in terms of design excess ;-)

used to love this mixer, loved the kills on it but you got used to mixing with the kills then used another mixer without kills and struggled to mix in the same kinda style.

sold it for £75 and got the djm600, kinda wish i still had it as tho
