Numark DXM09 Digital DJ Mixer

I've gone through a period of time where I've been saving up for new stuff. Here is one of those recent purchases:

Numark DXM09 Digital DJ Mixer

Some specs:
3 channels
3 band EQ with kills
RCA and 1/4" balanced outputs
RCA inputs
lots of headphone functions
smooth crossfader
several effects like echo, flange, phaser, etc.

I purchased this Numark as a sort of entry-level mixer. In the short time I've had to play with it I believe it's a quality product for its price. The fader is smooth and the knobs and functions are all easy to find and get used to. Sound output also seems good. Since I don't have a more expensive mixer to compare to I can't make that comparison, but I doubt the difference in quality would be anything to write home about.

I'm also trying to get better at scratching and this mixer is keeping up with that goal. As smoothly as everything runs the only limiter at this point is my own ability.

Overall: Great mixer for the price. Not as many effects as the higher versions but quality built in to everything it does have, which is enough for me at the moment.
