That is the coolest DJ controller I’ve ever seen
Крутой девайс 🤟😎👍👍👍💻💻💿💿💿🎛️🎛️🎛️🎧🎧🎧🎚️🎚️
How can hook up cdj or Xdj 700 to 1000 into line
Wow this is the future🔥🔥 I wanna go back to the past
Then you have to buy yourself a DeLorean DMC-12.
Who thought it would be a good idea cut angles on the front of the controller? It gives it the shape of like a DJ toy from Gemini.
fr
You can say it's cutting edge technology
@@aleksanderdragon4700 😂😂😂
@@aleksanderdragon4700Take my like and get out
@@johnnytekkno1703 aight
I’m just gonna say: It’s the response to the Denon Prime 4. Its impressive but I miss the performance pads normal pioneer standalone gear has.
If that is their "response" I gonna laugh loud.
From about 10 years ago yeah. You won’t see those again. The new ones work well on the 3000’s .. look forward, not back 👍🏾😊
@@PeteSherriff They said the same thing when NI took out the Jog wheels on the Traktor s8. “Nobody uses Jog wheels”. “Look forward not back”. Somethings just work and are a staple of design. These controllers need performance pads. Period.
Bro they own denon lmao
@@iWubmusic no they don’t. Get a grip
Crossfader is the most comprehensive, detailed and educational channel on YT. Definitely my personal fav. Thumbs and toes Arp!!!! 🙋♂🙋🙋♀
Very Kind! 😀
“Not for DJs who want to get super creative, but for DJs that want to look good doing it.” Says it all really.
For weddings on a yacht. If you put this in a restaurant with some impromptu sound system, booked DJs are SOL since it can't use old databases and uses a new one.
@@Reticuli But in fairness, I've never known a professional DJ who wouldn't bring their own equipment if booked.
Exactly my thought😉👍🏽
For luxury apartments or fashion shows where style over substance matters more… Also for Dj’s that want to look pro but lack any real knowledge of what pro dj controllers can do if you know how to use the functions
“Functions made easy in a nice box”
@@therealckonmixcloud1733 Seriously? How bizarre. Is this the wedding, prom, and 'events' circuit or are you actually talking about venues that don't just book people with controllers?
Horriffic ad copy. Barfs a lil bit
Following this channel for almost 3 years now. Impressed to see how your hair has changed and also finally pioneer operating system progressed..makes a big difference to old xdj-xz software.., although the layout feels like more for home use -the loop buttons dont fit to cdj layout ... i dont care about the effects... my verdict: your hair looks superb mate 👍
I don’t get why Pioneer DJ dosen‘t give us paying customers what we want.. DJ‘s only want XZ2 and DDJ 1000 mk2. Instead we got this.. we want the Standard Club Layout, not the Touchscreen Focus thing.
ALL I WANT IS XZ2 😭
Exactly smfh
exactly
Not all djs want the antiquated computer dependent models you still seem to like.
Isn’t that kinda obvious why an XZ2 probably isn’t gonna happen any time soon? With the new 3000s and the A9, a stand-alone unit that offers (almost) identical features but for a lower price tag would just cannibalize Pioneers own top-of-the-line products.
Facts, but I bet they don't want to release new versions of the stuff we actually want because they know they can't meet production expectations. Much easier to manufacture a product for a small demographic than for the majority. I find it hilarious that they can't keep old products in stock but will still release something new.
This thing is beautiful. I feel like pioneer has finally realized they have some competition and they knocked this out of the park. I love all the customization. At the end of the day, they seem to just know what DJs want
If we're just talking about the aesthetics, the thing is hideous
@@adamwright4135 Yeah, I don't like the red either. Let us change it to blue. Or yellow. Green. Purple. It's 2023 for god's sake. If I'm paying > € 3000 for a device like this, I want to adjust the colours! And get paint those sides just black. Sigh.
Knocked it out of the park for event DJs who do formal parties and have over 3gs to spend... I agree.
@@adamwright4135 it’s looks like a plastic-y toy controller
Depends, I want vinyl and a solid A&H analogue mixer. That's because my style doesn't ask those gimmicks. My audience likes my style. Unfortunately not everything is released on vinyl, so if I reaaaallly want to play a track, I gotta play it digitally. But still, no gimmicks.
Great review guys 🙌🏼!
I just used this this past weekend, what an incredible piece of kit!
I like everything about this unit however pioneer DJ is notorious for their incredibly timeless design and this is definitely not timeless however aside from that I really like this unit
Depends if you evolve with design change or wanna be one of those “i only play vinyl” kinda guys
god forbid they keep the CDJ standard looping section on any equipment...
This new unit looks awful. Like a fisher price toy. Really don't like this new look
Exactly. This thing looks like a toy.
@@Silentil that's not what I'm saying the ddj 800 and 1000 and the cdjs are timeless and this just doesn't cut it for me I think this is pioneer fighting back against the bars and clubs that bought the rx series and now there not buying cds so now I don't think any bar or club will this
Thinking this be my next set up . This has so much to give . Love the real classy smooth design and feels great to use very good kit
This just may become my next in home Studio piece. Would never take it out for events lol. Looks pretty sleek with loads of functions. Totally different approach and awesome result!!
right you are, a really nice looking furniture for a displaycase or as a letterpress
Is anyone else bothered about the fact the bottom edge of the decks won’t align with additional CDJ’s or turntables. My OCD will go nuts it not being nice and straight 😂
I'm extremely bothered, to the point where it may tip my decision to not purchase it. (in combination with the price, lack of other features, and general deviation from the rest of their club ecosystem)
This looks absolutely sensational I can't lie 😍
I’m visually impaired and have been looking for a 4 channel mixer. This is the perfect one for me. The screen is huge and easy to see, plus it means I don’t need to struggle finding the specific effect knob, I can just have the ones I need in the bank. The only annoying thing is the lack of third party support but if djay manages to work on this then u don’t need to worry about that.
I'm absolutely loving the Pioneer DJ Opus-Quad! It's finally a standalone 4 channel controller that doesn't require a separate CDJ player. The controls are intuitive and easy to use, and the built-in effects processor makes it incredibly versatile. Plus, the design is sleek and looks great on stage. Overall, I highly recommend this controller to anyone looking for a high-quality standalone option.
amazing review ! merci !
Good overview - looks awesome. Are the two smaller screens customisable in any way, in terms of the info. they show or how large the waveforms are etc?
April fools day is early this year!
Just bought mine this morning!!!
For a second I thought I made a mistake by recently buying the Live 4, but at this price point and with no streaming integration as of now, I'm convinced Live 4 was a good choice. Although it's an impressive unit, I like this direction from Pioneer.
Defenitely a departure from their standard stuff they have been pumping out those last 10 years, I like it too, keeps things fresh and more modern looking. The pricetag isn't so fresh on the other hand. Denon was right to position itself in the budget bracket with the SClive series.
The SC Live 4 has so much value for the price - I love mine. The one thing I think it's missing is the ability to set effects to low/mid/high like the XZ. The lows can get real muddy.
@@nickyv1225 you have an option to select the Frequency as a one of the parameters in some effects like Echo or Reverb, so it only affects the frequency you want. You have to press down the Parameter button and it will toggle between them.
I’m not sure what I think of this, I love the idea of trying to keep a minimalistic look but I think having physical switches is better than everything inside the Programm. Imagine your mixing at a festival and your applying an effect but chose the wrong deck in that setting by accident, but you already switched screens for your mix and get lost in the Programm. I think this is a great idea but should be made more simple by just keeping the buttons for assigning things. This is only my opinion you may agree or not.
Fortunately, this was not designed for festival DJ performances. It was designed for a more all around DJ; a wedding DJ perhaps? This also could be a really great unit for creating sets to later be performed on CDJ setup. It certainly does have it’s possibilities but it’s still not my cup of tea.
Agreed, I wish my XZ just had the screen and 4 deck standalone this offers.
@@any3859 you can use all four channels with the xz if u hook up to rekordbox tho. My problem with the new thing is you can’t add external equipment and be able to use pro dj link.
@@akira2k513 I don’t know any dj’s that are going to do technical 4 deck mixing at weddings. I’d say this is more for club dj’s but then you’d expect the club to have equipment already and probably wouldn’t have something like this in the dj booth. This is my gripe with all these new products, there’s so many different options. If the price tag wasn’t so hefty I’d invest but they all become succeeded, and inevitably obsolete, quite quickly. It’s not like a pair of technics that still get used to this day. If a dj rider stipulates a pair of technics you can use any model from the mk2 onwards. They hold their value too. I really want to invest in something like this but I know give it 2-3 years there’ll be an Opus nexus or something along those lines and this will be dated and you’d lose a fair chunk selling it to upgrade. I don’t know anyone who sold a pair of technics to upgrade to a newer model. It’s a conundrum
@@eupel1, trust me, no club or festival DJ would ever want to use the OQ in a performance; they might entertain one at home for fun but to practice on they will want what has long since come to be known as the club standard setup. On an all in one unit, this is best represented by the XDJ-XZ; even Pioneer makes it a point to say that the OQ is not a replacement to the XZ. I stand by what I said originally; this could very well be Pioneer experimenting to see what features mainstream DJs would like to add to the “club standard” workflow. Oh yes, you’re right most DJs will not use 4 decks but many would like to have the option “just in case”. It’s a classic case of FOMO when you don’t have it even if you will never use it. It should be noted that pro DJs who want to use 4 decks will always prefer 4 physical decks rather than layered decks as this complicates the work flow drastically. Can you imagine James Hype playing on layered decks? He would have a sh*t fit.
Dear Pioneer,
Thank you Denon for doing the research and showing the way by making the Prime 4 3 years ago. I just need to do a little more tweaks and add a few of our legacy. Then price is twice as the controller I emulated. I don’t need to use the “Club Standard” as an excuse anymore. Now let me see if our loyal Pioneerians get suckered into buying this. In the meantime, let me research on how to copy Serato’s and VDJ’s stems technology.
Your truly,
Pioneer
Prime 4+
Large screen, 4channel it's definitely a response to the Denon P4 and no doubt will be a great bit of kit. I think the jogs are oversized for just mixing and makes the unit a bit big.. I have a P4 and it's already a large footprint. Looking forward to getting a play on this to see Pioneers take on a standalone 4 channel package and what they offer for that extra cost. Initially not a fan of the screens either side, just more distractions. I choose the Prime 4 as I wanted away from the laptop and the one screen has everything needed. Can't wait ot get a play on it 🤟
I know the build quality is going to be better and the jog wheels Pioneer uses are lightyears ahead of everyone else, however, I would love to see a comparison video of the Denon Prime 4+ and this unit here. You'd be comparing the only two units on the market that allow four tracks on a standalone all in one, but two different price points.
It looks superb. Huge improvement and now firmware can update new features what’s not to like. Ergonomics are beautiful by the looks of things. I love my XZ and not looking to change but if and when I feel the requirement to do so I would definitely upgrade to this👍
They never update they bring a new controller every 6 months
@@diazmn No, they don't.
Software?, Forget about it, those in the know, know what i'm talking about, Software updates are not in Alpha Thetas best interest
This thing is BEAUTIFUL
@Crossfader Thanks for the video! I was wondering, as I haven't found any videos covering it, if the Opus Quad allows you to isolate frequencies on the beat FX in the same way the DJM900 NXS2 and DJM 19 do. I found that I almost always toggle off the low end, leaving the effect to work on only the mid and hi frequencies.
I understand there's a new X-Y pad for filtering in addition to applying an effect, but this is not the same as what I describe above.
Any help / info on this would be great.
Price = £2900. A little too much but good review. At this price why not buy;
1. *RANE 70* Battle DJ & Scratch Mixer .Price = £1499
2. *RANE 12 Mk2 Turntable* £739 each, x2 = £1478
Total price = £2977.
(Just £77 more)
I do miss the days when there was a cap on the price DJs had to pay for professional club equipment (x2 Technics 1210s (£350 each) and a Technics DMC 2 channel scratch mixer) and the rest was all down to your turntable skills and vinyl collection. This equipment had great resale value too. If you decided to quit or take a break there was never a shortage of people happy to buy your equipment for near to what you paid for it.
Not sure how easy it would be for you to get anywhere near £2900 for the Opus-quad if you decided to quit after 3 -5 years. Who else can afford it and would trust spending that much money on something 2nd hand from a stranger? ....but anyway..... Just my thoughts.
I welcome any comments and alternate perspectives.
I still love my 8 pads (specially when I want to drop my own custom effects) and a bigger jog wheels. If these were in there it would’ve been insane. But I like it though
There should be a MASSIVE ARTWORK mode so you can dig thru "record sleves" on the massive screen. Would be great. And it should create Very large text for art it hasnt got.
Hi Jamie. Thanx for the video.
Soundcard the same as DJM-A9 mixer? Does the unit have a record function and if so - would you see it as a capable tool to digitize vinyl by just plugging in the SL1200 in one of the inputs. Is the phono output quality decent?
Such a beast of a unit
Wow, love it!!
Finally 🔥
Hi! This is probably answered in the video/and or comments but im going to a gig with the opus quad in not too long and need a very spesific yes/no answer. WILL my USB sticks exported with rekordbox as normal (not the newest version) work as normal on this opus?
any insight as to when rekordbox mobile will be hitting devices for use with the flx4 and the like? thanks as always for your brilliant videos!
Thanks Jamie. Great review and a compelling new standalone! At 11:20 ..Denon already offers all of this on their Primes, and has XLR Zone Out, an excellent 2-band EQ on the Booth out (!). Bought a MINT Prime 4 for $650, too good a deal to pass up, yeah, the FX SUCK, but the audio interface is remarkable. I've been DJ'ing since 1984 and to my ears, as much as I LOVE Pioneer.. the Denon's sound quality is unsurpassed. They just need to sort out their software & FX. It's like their hardware team is A+ but their design and software team is C-level. But yessss! This looks completely new. Can't wait to demo this. Not crazy about the line fader and EQ architecture (seems crunched together to accomodate the screen), but yes, looks amazing w 3 displays. Undecided on the "Curve"
$650??? RRP about £2000 here
@@justinj544 Actually $600 US, plus $50 I paid my buddy to drive 3hrs. Yes a barely used one, incredible once in a lifetime deal, we thought it was a scam on Craigslist but turned out just a nice older fellow in a fine neighborhood who's son... needed to pay bills. We didn't ask any questions lol. With box!!
Does it mix properly with master tempo switched on though? Do loops finally get quantised properly by the unit? Both these things are terrible on a lot of RX & XZ units. It's all well and good looking pretty and portable, but does it actually work properly. Thanks for the review here though.
looks awesome
great piece of equipment!
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery - Denon is finally the leader, it's obvious because with this mixer, it's clear Pioneer like what Denon did and are now forced to follow and copy...Can only be good for all us DJ's...
I think that this piece of gear is just like the BMW M3 Competition: At first, I despised the design, but after seeing those reviews, all the features it packs, and the fact that each deck slowly morphs into a CDJ-3000 with the hot cues and the display, I started to like this. In fact, I would buy this instead of the XZ, and equally appreciate this and the clearly-upcoming XZ MK2. It is essentially a full 10000 euros 4 CDJ + DJM setup in a package that's like 3 times less the cost. Really considering buying one of these in the near future. With this and the FLX4, Pioneer really smashed the competition.
Kudos to you Crossfader, aswell, for the awesome reviews!
Edit: The only thing missing is Slip, but, as you said, they could add it through a firmware update on the screen.
Edit 2: And the Magvel fader, but oh well, that's that.
When i bought my M3 i did not have to take it back or return it to BMW the first week of purchase at least
Opus quad is not meant for performance, it's meant for looks
You want that you go with the XDJ ZX
This dj controller is the coolest I've seen🔥🔥🔥
But, too expensive too buy😂
Moving info out of the jogwheel display, where it's often covered by your hands, and onto a new screen, certainly seems like a good idea
Yeah and people complain that they did not get the display on jog wheel
I think they could of gave the jog display a better screen. Why not put a actual led screen on it also? Especially for 3100 dollars.
Hello Klaus, I follow your channel. I'm pretty sure you understand this.
🎧All I can say about this new "beautiful" boxy mixer with plenty of space and not enough faders so you can prioritize a fader with your own effects, rather than relying on a knob to select an effect and touch the screen to do it for you. When you are performing, you need time, you need extra hands, you need buttons to be closer, not in a row
Now you buy new equipment and only learn or use 10% of it until the next one, it's not practical for you the dj
One thing industries are doing now. The more crap they make, the more money they make with you.
Next, you can't rely on drop box or any cloud music stuff. No for performing or events. You need your laptop or your drive... and bring your own music or edits
Great Video! What about Lights control? Is there a way to interface the DMX interface with this mixer? Controlling my lighting through rekordbox has become realy important for me to set the mood in my party. Can it be done on this unit as standalone or can it be done with a mac connected to it? By the way I don't remember seeing courses about DJ lighting in your cursus. Do you have any? All the best and thanks for all those great videos.
Great piece of kit. What I miss is a good representation of the 'USB background color', which I loved on the older players. Now It's very hard to see which USB you are browsing or playing from.
In love with this thing! ❤️🥵✨
Make this buy able! ‼️❣️
I don't wanna give you 1000 of euros for it! 👀❌
Make a fair price! ‼️
Love this controller
I think I shall be ordering one.
The design is giving me Flight of the Conchords Synth Guitar vibes.
Seems like a great bit of kit!
innit looks like something you’d buy from toys r us
New Game changer , Pioneer really nice one this time :)
Well the Denon prime 4 was the game changer , this is just pioneer’s response and they copied a lot from Denon
I love the autoloop knob, it just makes so much more sense. Not a fan of the looks though. Hopefully we can get some of these features like the loop knob on other upcoming products.
inspired by Denon Dj
@@unikvibe4281 exactly, a lot of this is
@@unikvibe4281pioneer had the loop knob on DDJ ERGO, I'm not sure how far back Denon goes?
i'm sure Denon dj will take notice and appreciate all the praise for being the pathfinder in this case
@@caozmusic My DDJ-S1 has loop knob too, they just stopped for a long time after
Thank you for the video ✊
For some reason the mixer can’t find my playlist. Any idea why?
So happy i just bought the RX3 last week 😭😭
this has me ecstatic to see this new tech in the next gen CDJs. soo much more streamlined 💨
CDJ? CDs have not been around for over two decades m8, To use the CDJ label still show where Pioneer stands in their confidence department.
CDJ = Computer Dj, maybe
@@martinandersson9712 I mean, XDJs
@@martinandersson9712 also, many venues still use CDJs for the versatility.
❤❤❤ I has been love that mixers Dj that is so amazing for Dj
When this get Serato and streaming this will be very powerful!! In clubs
I don't know. It just looks unfinished.
And why have they removed the dottes and lines, I've found them very useful...
Same for the interaction, why is everything controlled through the touchscreen, when I've got sweaty hands and maybe had 1-3 beers I want knobs not a little flimsy touch screen...
And to be honest, the layout isnt that good ether, I thought the Xz should mimic a Cdj Set up. Now what's this a Prime 4 set-up🤷🏼♂️
I think the Rx3 is now a much much better deal... From the layout to the design everybody can use it. For this on the other hand you'll need an introduction😂
Ps: does somebody know what's going on with pioneers name structure. Djm900nxs2 --> Djm a9 / Cdj2000nxs2 --> cdj3000/ xdj Xz --> some complicated Name 😂
+1
Also what If I want to use 2 features which both are located on the touch screen? Then Im f'ed
Im hoping some of the touch screen ui/ux improvements come as a spftware update for the rx3
wish they'd put a bay in for an SSD, or even just a space to hide one when plugged into the USB3 port. that said this is probably my next unit, think it looks good.
Denon DJ Prime 4 remains King of the Standalone Mixers. Three main reasons: 1. Lack of Performance Pads 2. Hot Cues are forward of the platters meaning that a palm touch could ruin your mix. 3. Lack of Streaming Services. At nearly twice the price of a Denon DJ Prime 4, there is no excuse for these missing features.
Prime 4+ knocks them all out of the park or water, whatever you prefer
But those with money and no care buys whatever they want. I prefer to get performance dirt cheap!
my absolute dream wich i can buy it soo nice
A quick question. Is there any normal and easy way to remove a track from Traktor playlist? Sorry for the of topic subject! It does not mater how I remove it or deleted, tracktor playlist still show it.
This seems to be their most premium option for DJ Controllers. I really like some of the new features and additions but I wish it had a similar club layout. Hopefully they propagate some of these to other models like a new DDJ-1000 or XDJ-XZ.
Doesnt it seem like this will replace the XDJ-XZ entirely?
@@soluniverse8 no
yeah after looking it over more it seems they can add many more professional features to it but this is a good start.. time will tell.
At the end of the day what does premium mean if the product breaks down prematurely, even if you got it swapped out one time already
I really dig the look, there is nothing out there like this in terms of looks 🔥so lets stop the cap, but it still doesnt compete with the prime 4, its not even close and at 1000$ more expensive i just see it as a luxury
Yep, beautiful but Denon still miles ahead.
It would be really nice if it had the pad fx built in Jamie and you could plug in your xp2 too it aswel to trigger them. Just another idea for a standalone I hope Pioneer introduce to a standalones. Great video very thorough and concise. I hope the fader is nice I would probably put an innofader on if possible. 🙂👍🏻
Smart idea just to include 3 measly usb slots then, excluding the flimsy USB C 🤣, industry standard?. for a phone maybe
Beautifull controllers
isn't there normally a pass thru switch under the crossfader? curious why it's not on here for the opus quad..
Damn.
I will never own this but that right there is something else.
Hey, I couldn’t find that exact jumper your wearing on your website. Is that available to buy?? Thanks
Looks pretty good, not a big fan of the touch to select the channel for effects tho.
Never DJ'd a day in my life. Got a lot of DJ friends. Just picked this up. Can't wait to play with it. May even learn how to use it lol
Ready to sell it yet?
@michael-masi-2021 why would I sell it? Such a stupid question lol-
This thing is so much fun!
@@Fluffyninja7 I'll give you $480 and a lbs of the chronic for it.
Im wondering if you can use the LINK feature to play the streaming services from your laptop?????
Come on Pioneer! I literally just bought the XDJ RX3 before the holidays and now you come out with this beast of a controller!! I want my money back 😭
Whats wrong with the rx3? Apart from having smaller jogs and 2 channels?
Same bro😂 But I'm still stoked about my RX3. I'm not totally sold on Pioneer's drastic facelift on their latest controller drops. I'm sure they'll grow on me though. I hope they stay true to their roots for future CDJ and DJM releases.
Mate. .. just bought an Rx3 literally 12 hrs before the release of this🤣 anyway is out of my price range
When the XDJ-XZ came out it was so impressive and I thought Pioneer was only going to make them better from there. Was that the peak for a 4 Channel Standalone Unit? We'll have to see....
The XZ was only a 2 channel controller.
The Opus Quad is their first 4 channel controller.
Yes that XDJ-XZ has four channels, but the system could only play on two. The other two could be used when hooking up additional players like a vinyl or a CDJ. So that was kind of a bummer because it was supposed to be their top tier standalone mixer. I think this Opus Quad is some nice innovation from Pioneer and I like that they look for a new design. This reminds me of stealth fighter jets. The FLX6-GT also has that nice stealth grey color with orange/blue LEDs and now this Opus Quad too. I like that.
EDIT: I believe all four channels could be used using a laptop with Rekordbox (but then it is not stand-alone anymore), but I'm not sure as I do not have this product and did not do any additional research
I can buy 3x DDJ 1000 and play back2back2back
Can you record your DJ sets straight from the decks like the XDJ-XZ?
beautiful.
Thank Denon for this
Looks nice, can it use steaming services standalone?
Can you record your mixes on it like the XDJ XZ??
Is it possible to change the colors of the level meter back to the standard green, orange, and red? Not a fan of the future-classic lighting they’re tryna pull off on this and the v10
What about SLIP-mode? Possible through the touch screen?
Do the effects apply with an external source ( line or phono )?
I'm not sure if he mentioned it or not but, can we connect at least 2 laptops simultaneously since it has 3 different USB types ports?
I see that there are no more EQ buttons for the FX. Has that also been brought to the screen?
Jamie rocking David Guetta look, sans the glasses.
Between this and the xdjxz which is closest to the latest cdj set up?
I want one. 🥇🎊🎉✨🎈
Nice Gemini product from Pioneer Dj
Can you now filter by tags on the player with the new device library plus?
Oh daaaamn. I totally never knew that Teenage Engineering bought out Pioneer DJ. Thats crazy! 😂
Does anyone know if you could add cdjs to this? Since I only see one link connection in the back. Which I think is for Ethernet
When will they add streaming services tidal and the others?
what happen when u scroll the jog and switch second deck same time ?
Simply amazing. I loved it. The only downside is the price. But being a premium product, we couldn't expect anything different in terms of price.
Can you create playlists on the fly and add multiple tracks to that playlist??
Nice overview. A bit more about how it sounds (digital, warm, a bit analog, harsh, …) would be welcome. Thanks!
THE SHAPE OF IT OH GOD, the new multipla of dj gear ;-;
tbh glad i went with the RX3
