Glad you're enjoying it Bryan!

No problem! Thanks for watching, I hope it was helpful!

You can use any Serato time code vinyl with this mixer, and yes, the mixer is DVS ready with Serato!

Glad you're enjoying the Scratch! It's a great mixer!

Jimi is the man! 💪

No, all the FX are software based, apart from the EQ and filters.

@@djkit so the effects dont work on vinyl when used as stand alone, but dont they work on vinyl while being also connected to a pc with serato or has all the music to be digital for the effects to work?

@@Presbiter ^

Filter knob yes - but all the FX require Serato.

I agree!... that version was smooth and jazzy

@@jimineedles thank you so much

Hey Ralphs, thanks for the comment! That is the Mixars Duo MK2!

Either one is good for beginner or pro! It depends which layout you prefer, as the two mixers are very similar in price and features.

I can't speak on the Mixar, but I've had the Numark for about a month and I'm very happy with it. I've been DJing for close to 30yrs (so I would consider myself a "pro"). Based on watching other DJs on their $1.5k Pioneers, Ranes and Elites, they aren't doing much more than me on my sub $500 Numark. Granted I know if I started digging or worked out on one of those, I might would think different. But going from a 20yo Vestax 05 to this is a game changer for me. I love the post fader effects with the paddles (the paddles are amazing, that was one of the smartest moves Numark did was to include those) and the hi/low filter. My samples are right there on the mixer and I'm touching my laptop less because I can cue up songs and create loops on the mixer. The one thing I thought I wouldn't care about is the number of pads, since I've never used pads I thought I wouldn't miss the 8 less from the bigger mixers. Well I did a set where I was replaying Hip-Hop samples on the mixer and there were times I wish I had more than 4 on each side. The build quality feels solid and I know the big boy mixers have a more tank like feel and with them being used and abused a lot more, that makes sense and would be worth the investment. But for my needs the Scratch does the job. If a sack of money falls off a bank truck in the near future, i would upgrade to an S9, it is sexy, but a gold digger (just couldn't justify the price tag for where I'm at in the game).

Thank you!!!!

I'm coming from the same setup. 1200s 05 and a pioneer sp1 to control serato. Glad to hear your thoughts as I'm about to do exactly the same thing.

You can scroll by pressing Shift + loop knob.

That's too much work to load and scroll tracks

That's correct!

So you can't use shift to get more cue pads

So you prefer the Mixars?

@@djkit No idea to be honest.I didn't have enough time with both of them in the same room to compare them and till the suggested videos in my youtube feed about Numark Scratch bleeding reports I always tended towards Scratch because it seemed more all-around and more useful for gigs and most importantly it is officially supported by Serato Studio.Honestly right now I don't know which one i would rather buying,I mean how bad can the bleeding be? Although if Serato Studio release an update support on Duo,i would go with duo hands down. The comment was here mostly for people that are about to make their choice,so they know what kind of issues might occur.

Does the Mixar Duo MK2 support serato studio yet? This will make my decision for me.... I can't find a clear answer on Google, so please reply lol

@@darrenweston1618 the question is if Serato support Mixars Duo and the answer is yes. On the website if Serato you can see what devices are supported by what Serato software, Mixars Duo was supported last time I checked and it will directly open Serato Pro ince you connected.Mixars at some point offered the software on purchase of the mixer meaning that you had the software even when the mixer wasn't connected, I dont know if they still do that but i can guarantee you that once you connect your mixer Serato Pro will be fully open for you to use (give a double check on the site and see if it is still supported by Serato Pro, Serato overall is consistent at their product support they never drop products even if the company making them is not on the industry anymore).

If you hang around a studio environment or tour enough, you pick up slang like ''Kettle Leads" - everybody in the industry will know what you mean.

Hope the review was what you were looking for despite the kettle comment, Ryan!

@@jimineedles i work for a tour company and weekly with sound and lighting companies..... not just dj but as crew and stagehand, so it's hardly a valid excuse to say industry crews use bad terms or incorrect names for connections, because working on site myself ive never witnessed this...... as this review is done by industry leading and trusted review and information page for aspiring to professionals in a sector that requires understanding of how to connect equipment effectively! I think it's important they use CORRECT names for components and connections........ or we result to reviews that end up feeling like childlike, Anyway, i wish you well from my handheld tv typewriter I'm sending this letter from, back to my boiled bag of composting leaf with cow baby food

@@djkit yes the review had enough information for me to choose whats best for my personal needs and application, i would of liked a little more depth to the review including sound and cutoff sweeps to the line EQ, a little more on the internal build, but it covered enough to get me started

@@ryanhadwick3438 all this over a power supply, my my. Put the kettle on fella 😌

Depends on if you're looking to scratch. If you're looking to scratch the 7000 mk1 or mk2 would be the minimum suggested to ensure you have a proper direct drive. But if you're just mixing then either of those turntables will do

not good

RP2000 are fine for entry level turntablism but definitely not optimal,sooner or later you will be in need of upgrade.Mixars LTD are a good choice,again not perfect but especially for dvs you can stick with them even to a professional level,their only criticism as it seems is that in Vinyl/Analogue the tonearm base has some weebly feeling,some report sort skips some deny such thing but they do confirm the weeblyness and that it is annoying. Generally the best choices of new tts is the RP 7000 and RP 8000.Anything else is aimed at DVS use (including the only non-OEM new turntables,the Denon VL-12). If you are looking for budget options Numark TTX usb is the best choice but a risky one,usually if people claim to be functional probably it won't be faulty.Vestax PDX 2000 mk2 are fine too but rare and can be sold on collector's price.But honestly if you only mind practical use and care too little for looks,I would suggest you the DJ-Tech SL1200 mk6.They have ultra pitch,they have reverse mode,they have a really accurate direct drive motor and their price is dirt low.Only downside is that they look weird and that they are plastic but to this day since release none has ever reported any issue with these turntables. Good Luck with your choice.

Zaxaroplastis Thank you very much. It helps me a lot (sorry for my English I am not from American or Britain)

@@wthproduction6888 no worries,me neither. My take on first mixer is consider if you are going to use mixer for anything other than scratching,if yes go for Numark scratch,if you want to focus on scratching alone Duo is the best!. Just make sure if you go for Duo to have a copy of Serato dj pro because i think Serato is no longer collaborating with Mixars.

It's a great mixer! What's your favourite feature?

@@djkit the pads and the filters! I like how those pads trigger almost everything as long as you just select the right choice. It's about how you use the equipment not the kind of equipment ya know

@@estupedude21 For sure!

No doubt... I’ve had mine for about 3 months now and LOVE it!.... u can do some amazing things with this mixer.... that Innofader is butter smooth!...

@@druck7480 Glad to hear mate! Keep up the good work!

😂

Fair point!

Sorry Jerry, as they're scratch mixers we thought it would be good to see them in action!
