The only reason I don’t think they’ve come to market yet is the feel on a rotary is super important. The pots and components need to be very high quality analog bits with no stepping between values. I would like to see one but I think the component cost would keep it a niche product.

Warning to everyone buying and a question for alphatheta; DigitalDjTips; will this mixer have post fader serato effects? This was a big issue that was never resolved with the Rane mp 2015. As soon as you turned the rotary down, off, cut the volume there was no echo, reverb, no tail on the effect. It was instant off. Rane blamed Serato; Serato blamed Rane and it was never addressed. This was not the case with Traktor so it wasn’t a hardware issue. Please demand Alphatheta Serato and anyone reviewing to be clear and go on record before you buy the mixer to use with Serato. DigitalDJTips, will you please clarify if this mixer will have post fader serato effects when used with Serato Software?

No reason why it shouldn't but if we get a chance we will check. You could ask Serato too.
@DT1One5 ай бұрын
@@digitaldjtips Thank you for replying. I did ask alphatheta (don’t they also own Serato?)Wouldn’t you agree that this is an important question? This was overlooked with the Rane mp 2015 when everyone reviewed it. It was rather painful to find out after I purchased the mixer and paid for Serato, 1, because it was such an expensive mixer and didn’t have a Serato license included and 2 because it wasn’t mentioned anywhere when reviewed; to be fair, this should be disclosed by Serato and a tested feature by reviewers as effects are an important part of deejaying/performing. I remeber back then Serato responding pointing to word play, saying that there is a difference between Serato “supported “ and Serato certified. Making the point that the “Supported” list of devices means that features (undisclosed list) of Serato software aren’t supported before saying that it was something Rane needed to correct to unlock. I don’t remember if it was Rane or Serato that stated it was something that Rane had to pay Serato to unlock. I thought it new absolutely crazy to boast support for a mixer without telling people that Serato effects wouldn’t work post fader. Something Rane should have made clear as well.
@DT1One5 ай бұрын
@@digitaldjtips Also why not compare this to the first hybrid (Rane MP 2015) mixer? Nice that you shouted out Urei. I still have my original one from the 80’s. You did a nice review of the Mp 2015 (I remeber laughing when you had the dj perform a scratch showing us all the possibilities and how scratching isn’t quite meant for rotaries but possible). A sound comparison between the two would be nice as well as a feature comparison. I think Rane wins in some categories with their customized high pass low pass, blended filter as well as the bus channel for effects and the 4 channels or using the bus channel as a 5th channel. The isolator on the 2015 was also more customizable (unless I missed something on all the euphonia reviews) Very surprised no one is mentioning the Rane MP 2015 that was first out of the gate with this type of hybrid mixer. It made quite the splash when it came out and fetches a good amount of money on reverb and eBay (upward of 5k) Thank you digital dj tips; I am subscribed and liking, doing anything to support your channel. Your reviews speak to and include all of us (old and new in the business) I’m waiting for the first 4 channel rotary standalone/hybrid dj software controller if anyone at alphatheta, Rane and Denon are listening?

Apparently on the effects unit, the last effect to the left allows the send knob on each individual channel to act like a HPF, giving each channel its own filter in a way. Only problem is now you can’t use any other effects unless you have some auxiliaries.
@washingtoncharcopa12825 ай бұрын
@yrureadingthisname yes noticed that, but it's shared across all the channels you can't use it individually. For example, if I'm mixing out of track 1 into track 2, I'd like to be able to mix changing each filter parameter individually. One raised and the other lowered. Also, the effects section for me is best used in conjunction with the filter. Specifically, Reverb. As you said, you can't use more thsn 1 at a time. This should have a filter setup just like all other Pioneer mixers. It's a shame that it doesn't.

The OPUS Quad has dropped in price by 600 Euros here in Germany, direct proof of the lack in sales. That Alpha Theta is a toy and a waste of space, and now this.

@robertw.14995 ай бұрын
@@digitaldjtips Hi Phil, I’m not suggesting that every product is meant for every DJ. I think my opinion on the OPUS Quad is relevant as an example and comparative to this AlphaTheta device. It costs enormous amounts of money to bring a brand new product to market. The FLX 10, for example, was just an upgrade from the 1000 and it’s SRT derivative and exploded onto the market with a bang. Great machine all round. The OPUS has nose dived over here. It’s a great machine but has received relatively small acclaim in the DJ world. The resources invested into that mistake could have been invested into bringing an XZ Mk2 to market, a machine that many are waiting for and many are speculating about. The original XZ is still a beast of a machine but now well outdated. No streaming, slow and small screen, no STEMS etc. Pioneer, like any other manufacturing company, is interested in sales volume. I just feel that all this experimentation going on at the moment is just catering to the few whilst the masses are waiting for that next big arrival which will produce massive sales volume. My opinion is of course very subjective, and I know there will be others that think this new mixer and the AlphaTheta are great products and will sell well. I don’t however and believe that Pioneer has dropped the ball somehow. My best 👍
