Behringer DDM4000

I bought this as I wanted to have a few basic effects and other niceties. The built in crossover for subwoofers is excellent too. the filters and eq's and kill buttons are all solid work horse effects, i rarely use the sampler.
The mixer can be used as a midi controller but I dont use it that way. the Mic pre is great and the monitor section is also great. I dont use the cross fader, but have tried it out and it works as it should. If you're a gigging DJ this will earn its keep within minutes. Bedroom DJ's will knock mileage out of it too and at half the price of the P..neer. Also this is built solidly, and includes rack ears to flight case it up.

I bought this mixer as an upgrade from the basic 2 Channel mixer I already owned, the main reason I bought this mixer was due to it being a quarter the price of other mixers similar to it. I love the 2 effects sections which makes layering effects so much more fun and creative. It came with a traktor demo which I never used, I prefer the standard setup of cdjs and mixer, I also like that all the effects were customisable. Though the mixer looked a bit complicated and frightening at first glance, I quickly got used to the features and layout after an hour, I don't really like how light the faders feel, there unbelievably light compared to the pioneer range, but givin the price difference I can look over that, the only thing the ddm 4000 is missing for me is a send/return which means its only possible to hook up extremely effects processors through the master output and doesn't give you the option to use them
On different channels. But overall I would recommend this product, specially for anyone on a budget!
