- The German manufacturer Omnitronic has expanded their range of affordable rotary mixers with the TRM-422. In the new episode of Beatsource Tech, Mojaxx asks if this is a logical upgrade, or has the company bitten off more than they can chew this time?

As a teenage bedroom DJ in the 1970’s I had a radio shack slide board. In 1979 I got my first club gig at a club on Boston’s north shore. The club had one of those silver face Bozak rotary boards, I really liked it once I became accustomed to it. In 1984 I decided to purchase one for myself, but alas I was too late, Bozak was no more. I decided to get myself a Urei 1620 witch turned out to be the type of mixer I used in nearly every club I worked in for the rest of my long DJ career. The 1620 was absolutely the industry standard back in the day, every major club in Boston and New York had one.
I still have my 37 year old 1620 and I intend to keep using it till I’m dead. Rotary rocks!
That's awesome!
RESPECT
Nice! I always wanted to try the Urei 1620, but I never had the opportunity. Question: is there any type of degradation that occurs with those? I would be curious to buy one, but I would like to know what to look out for. Thanks in advance for your time.
@@djcarlitosatl Vintage electronics require some semi-regular maintenance typically, maybe once every few years, occasional repairs and replacements for some small components like capacitors that may be worn out or damaged over time. Depending on how much you are gigging with it and traveling around this could be a more regular thing, but kept in a clean environment, away from smokers, drunks & fog machines, treated with care and it will usually experience significantly less problems and you might get away with maybe a decade before some capacitor or something blows and you need to take it in for repair. A lot of it can depend on how much you are using it too. It's all incredibly variable and there are always exceptions but it's better to be prepared to have to pay for service regularly than assume you'll get away with treating a disco queen, a treasure from a bygone era, so poorly.
I love Rotary Mixers. I got my first one, a Bozak in 1978. I DJed at Studio 54 in NYC from 1982 to 1985. I used a Urei and a Bozak there. During the 70s & 80s the biggest clubs in NY had Rotary Mixers. After playing at 54, I would never dare use anything but a Rotary. With those select old school club DJs in NY they wouldn’t be caught dead using anything else. Of course the quality and sound of these mixers are exceptional, but with these DJs it’s more loyalty, and memories of the Glory Heydays from Places like Paradise Garage and such.
Respect ✊🏽🙏🏽
thats great n all , but you won't be playing Hardcore Rave , or Hip Hop then . . . . .
@@user-rv8wb1nl1b I mean I think it goes without saying he is talking about playing house. You play house with a rotary, and house-adjacent genres, maybe some techno or breaks, but that is basically it. That is pretty much a given. Also you can get away with mixing hip hop on one tbh depending on how willing you are to let the tracks blend, which can be fine with some hip hop and rather unpleasant with other styles. I will say it just isn't very user-friendly, particularly if someone isn't used to playing on a rotary. But if you are quick on the channel dials, you can manhandle it into mixing in an imitation of a sort of hip-hop style with faster cuts than most people do with a rotary, it's all in the flick of the wrist and the response curve on your respective alps pots. Also you can swap out the channel knobs for something bigger or smaller that helps you spin them faster. I do this sort of mixing sometimes with drum and bass, although I usually just play liquid dnb and mix it more like house & techno, and sometimes with breaks too, although I usually opt to blend them as well, and it sounds fine to me.
I'm sure I could mix hard dance on mine, breakbeat hardcore, hard house, hard techno, all of that stuff reasonably well too. I just haven't touched my Nukleuz records since before I owned a rotary, and I don't have any good x pills leftover. It is the same as playing on a mixer with the crossfader disabled. Personally, I almost never use the crossfader. I normally have it disabled on every channel, and I find it very irritating when I use gear where it is enabled and not easily disabled. Unless you are scratching, the crossfader just sounds bad if someone is using it, at least to my ears. Channel faders are just better in every way, so its all kinda a non-issue to me. Rotary mixers are not THAT different, it's just that the people who own them, particularly pricey vintage stuff like Urei or Bozak, or new pricey stuff like the Condezza, are typically stuck-up purists who sorta look down on other genres and people who don't play vinyl exclusively.
@@shelltoe_soul a mixer needs a crossfader , has done since MGTheodore days or GMFlash etc . They literally invented cueing , scratching , blending . . .. those that know know.
@@user-rv8wb1nl1b what the fuck does cueing or blending have to do with having a crossfader? Yes, scratching is easier on a mixer with a crossfader, but you can still execute some scratches with a rotary, it just isn't convenient to do so and feels kinda weird. That is it. On a mixer with or without a crossfader, the experience of cueing is going to be exactly the same, and blending is arguably better in every way on a rotary, and most rotary mixers do not have any crossfader. You clearly don't know much at all, your point makes absolutely no sense.
Thanks for the heads up about the popping. Deal killer for me!!
I love the smoothness of the mix on a rotary.
Thanks for the heads up about the popping, I was one of those deejays who really couldn't get behind the Xone92 either for similar reasons, but as you said, a lot of people didn't seem to mind.
Don't know for the life of me how people wouldn't mind a popping sound on a powerful club system or in any professional application. 🤣
@@DJCasanovaToronto yes, it is really worrying how this is considered acceptable and gets passed the prototype stage. To be fair to the old Xone92 the popping is not that bad, and for the most part was not obvious at all.
My first mix was with a rotary mixer Bozak to be exact and a pair of OG Technics SL-1800’s in a club in NYC , Starship to be exact in the 70’s , at the moment I have a UREI 1620 and the smooth transitions ( mixing) is impeccable, would love to get my hands on a Boutique Mixer , but I’m glad to see some affordable ones for new school DJ’s to try out. Frank from AZ AKA DJ Fusion63
Awesome that you got to use those turntables too! I miss using the rotary mixers from back in the day.
I grew up in Hells Kitchen close to Starship Discovery 1 Discotheque on 42nd st. I was too young to get in but everyone knew it was a legendary club in NYC Disco History. I always herd the system was incredible. I have friends who played there. The fact that you played there is awesome! There were only a few DJs at that time. It wasn’t really popular yet.
@@dwayneholt376 , Thanks for the reply, those were great times in my life , I was very young and had a connection to get into the clubs during that era , I remember just staring at the DJ in the booth and listening to what he was doing, so my sister’s friend ( who worked the circuit ) said if I wanted to meet the DJ, I said he’ll yeah , I believe his name was Louie nice guy , I was blown away with all the equipment in there , at first I was putting his records back in the sleeve, then later when it got a lil dead he started teaching me how to beat match and blend , I was hooked from that day on. After that club started to let younger kids in , she took me to the Inferno on 19th street. There is where I met a young Larry Levan , got to chat with him , he taught me how to read a crowd , I’ll never forget great times , nice to share my story with you, I was only 13 at the time and I thank my sister’s friend for it .btw she worked @ Ipanema during that time .
@@frankvasquez5884 I love to hear stories like yours!
You are one of the few real pioneer first generation DJs most of the early DJs were like you. They don’t have a big name like David Guetta or Tiesto, but you guys were the first ones who started the whole thing. The true Pioneers! I didn’t start DJing till 1980. My first mixer was cheap Numark. But it was a very popular mixer. A lot of DJs had it. I had Technics SL 220 belt drive turntables. But then I got a Bozak and some Thornes TD 125s. I started on Long Island. I played at Channel 80 and Metro 700. I started at Studio 54 in 1982. The Awesome DJ Leroy Washington brought me in. He was the Resident at 54 at that time. I ended up playing there for quite a while. I also played at Palladium and Area. I also played at a club called Stringfellows in NYC and the one in London in 1985. Also played at Hippidrome. And now sometimes I’m on SiriusXM Studio 54 radio on Robbie Leslie’s show. The early days were the best of times. It will never happen again. It was new and exciting. And in New York we had it all to ourselves. The entire Club sene was invented in NYC. Now it’s all over the world and the New York sene is dead! It’s too expensive to have a club in NYC. and to many politics and red tape. You don’t have clubs like Garage and Starship. Long gone. You have to go to London or Berlin. My best friend Gary Stewart (RIP) did the original system at Ministry of Sound in London. Hey Frank, do you still DJ??? I Larry Levan was a dear friend of mine. I use to hang out with Larry at the Garbage during the daytime when he was just fooling around with the system. And I know Ray Pinky Valasquez for many years, he played at Ipanema.
@@dwayneholt376 Yes Dwayne, I took it out of retirement, rusty on the vinyls , but getting the hang of it on my Traktor set up. Wow love your story as well , I’ve read up on Gary Stewart. Genius, reminds me of Richard Long. I’ll listen out on XM radio for you, I started a Twitch channel not to long ago it’s only a 2 hour show , getting back into it . I go by the name of DJFUSION63, it’s a funny story how that name came, but it was created out here when I moved to AZ back in 2005 , I love to share more stories with you who knows maybe we crossed paths and not even know it , we’ll gotta get back to work , talk to you later, small world , @ Frank Vasquez
I love when smaller companies clone vintage analog gear and at a great price and not break bank on these over priced OG product!
This is not a clone of anything.
Bought this a month ago .. no problem with popping… first rotary mixer and very very pleased
I just received my unit, no popping at all ! :) I guess they made improvements since your review
Sweet! I’m thinking of ordering one. I have the 202mk3 and love it, but want 4 channels
Got a question... Has the click problem been solved?
Interesting to see if Gear4Music will do a version of this too. They did their "SubZero" branded Omnitronic 202 & 402 so Iguess Omnitronic either make them for gear4Music or they are made in a Chinese factory as OEM mixers then branded accordingly. The Gear4Music versions are £100 cheaper for the EXACT same rotary mixers.
Rotary mixers have just never been my thing but this looks impressive. Great review Mojaxx.
I would love to see a video about Rotary Kits and modding Rotaries onto "fader" mixers
Thank's, A Great review as always. I have and am very pleased with my TRM 202 Rotary tbh. But very tempted with the new Ecler WARM2 2 Channel rotary Mixer. looks sweet and same channel insert setup as TRM422. Isolator placement is spot on on Ecler. it could be my new favourite for the money. Be great if you could review
He did it!
@@0scill8r yep watched it 3 months after my original comment
I did own a trm 202 mkII when it came out in 2016, it did what it needed to for the price range and intro me to later buy more substantial rotary mixers out there. There were some issues and had to be sent a replacement but it was fine. Yeah they aren’t outstanding, but they aren’t claiming to be and offer a happy medium. I’m considering the new ecler rotary (having owned a nuo 2.0) and look forward to the review for that (there is one out there by a French guy but I’m sure Mojaxx will provide a much more detailed rundown)
careful with the Ecler Warm2, there are problems with the knobs being loose which has been reported by many new owners and Ecler do not seem interested and just refer the issue to the dealer. th-cam.com/users/shortsQ3L_2rqLW-g
Was thinking of upgrading from the 402- reckon I’ll just stick with it!
I love this channel. I watch you all the time! You really know your stuff, and you always explain so well
Was thinking of buying this until the popping issue was shown. I would have been really pissed not knowing that if I purchased it. Sorry but that's not acceptable in a live environment, or any environment actually. What's the point of having those features if you can't really use them in the real world... affordable or not is no excuse in my books. Do it properly or not at all, not half assed. What a shame, it's a beautiful mixer, but that's about it at least for me. Thanks again for your honest review! 🍺🍺
It's not dramatic at all if you know how to do it, you don't hear it popping. ; )
I love rotary mixers. Although I do love my Pioneer 900nxs2 it’s true want you said that old rotary’s sound much warmer. I use both depending on the venue. If we could combine a Bozak and a 900 that would be a match made in Dj heaven.
Btw. You have the best reviews on TH-cam.
Modding a pioneer 900 into a rotary is not the hardest thing in the world to do.
@@powerboon2k indeed. Shame it would still sound terrible…
I own an original Bozak CMA 10-2DLC rotary mixer, in addition to a Allen & heath Xone S2 rotary mixer; they both sound great, although the Bozak does an overall smoother blend, the Xone S2 is actually transitions better on those pots and the Xone S2 rotary is a brighter more modern sound. The analog sound of the Bozak never falls behind and just sounds warmer for music when really music, without any digitalization and containing sways in the instruments that although flawed, hardly ever sounds that way. In summary, they both sound good, far better than the Urei 1620 rotary or the Rane MP2016 unit, but of course, having played all of these in a club environment, its just a matter of taste. One final word, the only rotary that beats these two is the Allen & Heath Xone V6 rotary, it leaves all rotary mixers in the dust.
Cool! I learned a lot from your comment. Thanks for the info! The only rotary mixer I ever got a chance to use was the Rane MP 2016, which, as I understand it, was a copy / clone / inspired by the Urei 1620. That in turn was a copy of the Bozak? Am I right?
Ok, now I’ve gone down the Allen & Heath Xone V6 rotary rabbit hole. The specs and look are AMAZING! Any idea what they got for in great condition in dollars? Thanks again for sharing 🙏🏽.
I have some experience with rotary mixers but it was an Vestax and a Allen & Heath. I'd like to play on a Bozak, Urei or Rane rotary. Or any of the boutiques with an isolator. it would be fun for long smooth mixes in house or techno on a giant system. I suppose it would be fun for broadcasting too.
Great review, thanks. The filter pop is a deal breaker for me, I'd get so frustrated with it. Now I need a review of Ecler's Warm2.
Still waiting for that to arrive!
@@Mojaxx Good to know it's coming though! I've time, getting my tax returns in July. :D
can't beat that price don't know how they do it
Would be nice if you try the new Ecler Warm2.
Waiting for it to arrive!
Loved my 202mk3, this looks to have all the niggles fixed. I like…
Rotary converted Xone:23c was good but I’m on a Xone:32 now. Might rotary that soon as I don’t like the faders.
Looks beautiful!
Wow this has all the bells and whistles you would need from any rotary mixer. That filter and engage issue is such a shame. I would love to purchase one, but that seems to kill the vibe of the mixer since I use external effects and I love using the filters. I wonder if this has anything to do with the internal power supply.
THANKS for SHARING
Greetings from Cabo Verde Islands😀
I wonder how Omnitronics compare to the Rane rotaries. At some point I''ll get a rotary just to try out. It would be cool to see a mixer roundup video to get a higher level perspective on how they might impact different mixing styles.
The rane's digital so if you're a bit of a rotary purist, playing vinyl, I think it sort of defeats the purpose of maintaining a pure analog signal path. It just happens to be an incredible mixer but you might as well just get the V10 as its also digital and incredible.
@@ayrshiresoundman The old ranes are what he's on about?
The v10 is a pioneer....there are a lot better sounding mixer than that....for a start the mastersounds 4v like I have...E&S, Isone, D&R, Condesa, etc....anything but a pioneer all though be it, the V10 is good and the only really decent pioneer mixer...djm 1000 was OK....
Tbh it's all about the mixers that have a separate psu....
Ecler mixers ain't bad....formulasound are good.....Allen and heath xone 96 is shit.....old vestax 50a is not too bad....
Omnitronic is not a patch on the ecler warm....and the same price...for a few more hundred the mastersounds radius 2 kills them both....
looking to save space and try out rotary, got me the TRM 202mk3, and I'm hooked, having crazy thoughts about a master sounds and all
Go buy a mastersounds. I have one with the efx unit. Its all you will ever need. Awesome with a fabulous sound. I also own a TRM 202 it doesn’t compare soundwise. But i love it
You can ear mic on phones by routing rec out to a line in
Any chance of you reviewing some Formula Sound mixers, maybe?
Hey there Mojaxx, can you tell me if there will be a review of the Ecler WARM 2 coming up some time soon, as I would love to hear you views on this compared to the TRM202 and the Mastersounds Valve, as it sits firmly between the two price wise?
Currently own the 402 and the sound is better than all my mixers of today which totals about 12 …disappointing to hear about the glitches because I would have bought this unit in a heartbeat. Love rotary for house music and looked at the Rane and Condesa but the price was not to my liking. As always thank you Mo for an honest review.
Have you ever owned or used a Master Sounds Two Valve?
@@coolbreez773 No , are you recommending that mixer❓😎
@@Bronstorph1 I think it should be in your collection :)
@@coolbreez773 …I will look it up…thanks for the info
@@Bronstorph1 Yes check out Mojax review of the Radius Two Valve
th-cam.com/video/ZBOdFWDyaVU/w-d-xo.html
Very comprehensive review, but its got me thinking, are any of these DJ mixers any good? The Xone96 - horrible headphone monitoring and far too quiet. The Model 1 - Slightly underwhelming and has issues with some of the recessed controls scraping on the faceplate, should be priced closer to £1200. And now Mojaxx has reminded me about the doubts here on the Formula Sound FF6.2 (which I have arriving the day after tomorrow) producing a popping sound when some of the channel buttons are pressed. Are we all getting ripped off with over hyped and overpriced equipment? At least in the case of this Omnitronic its only £700, but what a shame about that filter because it sounds lovely! But anyway, what is going on? In this digital age have we forgotten how to design and build good quality analogue circuits?
had a zone 62 that popped when pressing the filter. pretty bunk.
The manufacturers should create a Mod Kit containing Capacitors and/or resistors to connect across the noisy Filter switches and remove the Thump! Thoughts?
I've heard the Isonoe 420 (£2700) pops when engaging the eq.
Its up at 3K+vat now and a 6 month waiting list. I would hope its not as loud a pop as this Omnitronic.
that pop is why i dont ness with allen an heaths. they pop big time.
Do you know if they plan to fix the popping?
That a very nice mixer but can not be use with DVS because all Serato boxes are not compatible with Serato any more!!!😠
What do you mean all serato boxes are not compatible with serato? I'm still using SL2..... ?
@@DJCasanovaToronto they are not compatible with the new software
Just use xwax or mixxx
hello, I would like to know if the pop sound when you activate the filter also happens when you activate the send & return effects. Thanks.
This is a really nice review, thanks mate.
I got one question If you don’t mind .
What kind of RCA cables are those?
Great review. I own the little 2 channel with the wrap around wood trim. It looks fantastic. The sound is great. Love playing records with it. Also use my Stanton SCS 4DJ and mix FLAC songs.
I have a question. There's a video of Disclosure doing a set using a Mastersounds mixer. Any links to that? I'd like to see that. Thanks mate.
hang onto that scs 4dj - they were a bit of kit before their time
@@dorsetengineering thanks, they were ahead of time, I love it. I also added a 12v 22,000mha power bank. Gives me about 6hours. Cheers
@@hernanvergara9313 I’m trying to find one on the used market as an alternative to the prime-go
I used one of these and my knky complaint is the cue volume isn't really loud. In a club or at a gig with loud main volume you might be wanting more volume from the cue.
Theres definitely an odd correlation between analog filters and popping buttons, i had a behringer nox606, analog filters popped when engaged.
ok this is good it has a cross fader .Im ok with rotary mixers but i lose interest when there is no cross fader.Having one gives you the best of both worlds.I often do long blends and that is good with rotary style mixers but with no cross fader i would have both hands on the knobs which i find un comf but with one hand free for pitch bending and the other for the knobs im happy so this would be ok if i was to find one in a bar or club.
cheaper than a refurbed bozak and a dope real for sure
After watching your video about this mixer, I have something similar that I bought from RadioShack years ago, but the power supply died, and that has to be repaired, what would be nice about these mixers is to have a USB connection to a computer, this can be used as an interface to record on your mixes to laptop or desktop, that is missing, that feature I like. Nowadays, there are mixers that come with USB port, to connect to a computer. It would be a waste of money for me to buy this mixer without that feature. And I really don't care about the filters. I just want to be able to mix from one input to the another, and record it on to my laptop, as well as to stream it on the Internet. Now that would justify the cost.
In my experience you get more stability by running your mixer through an audio interface that goes to the computer. It could be something as simple as a focusrite 2i2, just gotta match the gains and use rca to 1/4" plugs, or behringer (as shotty as they can be sometimes) makes these little phono boxes that you can switch to line and connects to your computer via USB. So if you have a mixer already all you need is one of those things and you can stream your mixes.
@@sgtcreasegrease I per-fer, M-Audio/M-Track Duo, PreSonus/AudioBox USB96 or Behringer U-phoria USB. There are many out there, take your pick.
Thank You for this one! This mixer looks great, but after this video i know it is not for me.
My opinion on this is,,, buy it and mod it.
Its all analog and get an external power supply built for it,, my guess that would quiet the popping if not mod them with zero switches.
It Will cost some money but not nearly as buying a 3000 dollars boutique and it has so much it offers.
10 years down the line these mixers Will get Praise for their o reliability i saw some pictures of the internal and they look great for the money and function.
Way better Than my China made xone 92 twice blown power supply.
Sorry but heath let me down on all of my mixers.
Xone 62
Xone 92
V6.
Mo Jax, awesome channel
Mehdiiiiii 😅
Can you use this mixer with Serato DJ Pro?
The point of a rotary is sound quality...
you can buy and Ecler Nuo 4.0 for the same price and it will sound loads better....
The cheapest and best 2 channel rotary is the Mastersounds radius 2
i grew up with retro .. no idea why people would want to go back , just make custom at that point. SMS shorty sound from nyc is the best rotary
How the cdjs looks like next to that mixer?
Was just wondering that. Literally about to AR this thing and see
You should follow me on Twitch, you would have seen and heard it used with CDJs on there multiple times! 😉
@@Mojaxx will do..😉
@@Mojaxx Already do, thanks to Schwind ;)
that filter pop is unacceptable..
Mojaxx when are you going to review the Ecler Warm 2?
Needs individual mono channel meters rather than stereo metering shared by all the cues. Isolators per channel would interest me rather than the master iso. And I don't use crossfaders. Filters for every channels would be nice, high pass and low pass on every channel, with shared resonance knob. I also prefer the Urei and Alpha knobs.
I agree about the channel meters. 👍
f… I was going to change my 402 for this one but thanks your review I m not, its so bad the poop 😖
If this was a midi controller and double usb interface as well it would be cooler.
This as a 2 channel with all the upgrades the 422 has..
the popping is either nothing or very quiet , you get use to the way to press the button and at what time so you really dont hear anything and if you want the filter on all of the time for certain channels you can set the filter so it really doesnt effect the sound so much. no idea what he is talking about.
Is this better VALUE than Master Sounds Two Valve?
does the mic route through the efx channel? And is there an enable for it to be sent to efx (that cue button below mic 2)? Couldnt find shite in the manual.
mojaxx woot!!
YMMV - mine has a dead phono channel, likely a dead preamp. The phono preamp isn’t great to begin with, being 40% weaker than the line channel, making it not ideal for phono + cdj mixing. I’s just save a little longer and go for something of higher built reputation.
Isn’t that why you have gain pots? For most users with a couple of 1210s and two cds not really an issue or?
@@Rareos true, I have the 2-channel mk2, no gain pots there.
Stick with Rane. The clicks on the filter are a deal breaker. 😢
Can someone tell me if this ALPS potentiometer is A curve or B curve?
CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME THE PRICE OF A 2 CHANEL OMNITRONIC ROTARY MIXER I WOULD LIKE TO PURCHASE ONE THANK YOU
nice mixer but that pop is a bit off putting
Which British mixer is he talking about with popping that costs 3x the price?
Xone 92
I order one of these before your review. Thank you for that! It's a bummer about the FX clicks when engaged. What is your opinion on the Crossfader. Will it last a few years or more? Im no scratch pickle, but I have been "scratching/sampling" sections or phrases in my mixes lately and thats why I wanted the crossfader. My main objective is to get a very clean analog sound for my vinyl records. I can hear all the newer mixers internal digital processing when playing records. I have a really high end system and know who records should sound. I know its weird. but I am a sound engineer and its my job to hear that stuff. thx for your input!
What did you think of the mixer..worth getting or did the popping drive you mad?
a great alternative to the bespoke Condesa……
hi,
The eq pots have a detent at midle or not ? Unable to find the information on the net.
thanks
Yes they do
Is dat an external mixer?
When you are into rotary mixers the only option is to build your own. All the commercially available ones are not quite right.
sadly the filter pop is too loud.
This or a MasterSounds Radius 4 - thoughts?
@@djstuc purchased one this past summer. Love it. I have it paired with the FX unit too 🤤
@@AnthonyHasbun Which one did you buy? The MS Radius 4? I'm deciding what to buy.
@@ricardosalazar2792 yes, the radius 4. Would love to play with the valve version, but partner could not stand another device in the house 😆
those poor dancefloors that have to hear all those rotary knob mixes..lol
Dang that mixer looked really cool until you showed the pop's when switching filters in. Totally bad design. They could have put in a buffer circuit but didn't do to avoid cost so I would be suspect of everything else in the mixer.
Rather go for the Ecler Warm 2
Not like in it look old and you talking about it hmm
The popping would turn me off it
The pops are UNACCEPTABLE 👎
hyping rotary controls is stupid in my opinion
The pop is a definite no no no
I'm worried about your health big guy you need a detox get off the meat dairy booze eat raw fruit and veg for 2 weeks see how you feel
Interesting to see if Gear4Music will do a version of this too. They did their "SubZero" branded Omnitronic 202 & 402 so I guess Omnitronic either make them for gear4Music or they are made in a Chinese factory as OEM mixers then branded accordingly. The Gear4Music versions are £100 cheaper for the EXACT same rotary mixers.
I have the subzero 202 one, its great , its probably made in the same factory and just a different name slapped on it
@@arend3669 The one thing I did notice is that G4M forgot to label the mic rotary on the faceplate!
@@gingerwilksie not on my 202...
@@arend3669 Yeah, it was just the G4M ones that forgot to do it (under their SubZero brand). Maybe they fixed that now.
I may grab one at some point soon as I’m in the market for a new mixer. I ditched an A&H Xone 43c recently as I want to go rotary. Was going to dip my toe into it.
