Numark NS7 III DJ MIDI controller
First I had turntables and mixer then I had a long string of controllers:
Behringer BCD3000, Kontrol X1, Novation Twitch, Midifighter, Vestax VCI380, Vestax VCI400, DDJ-SX, DDJ-SX2, NS72 and finally....
The NS7 3, the best controller of all.
Coming from someone raised on turntable that likes to mix genres/bpms there is simply no other controller on the market has the same feel.
Pros:
- best platters out there
- really good pad implementation
- screen very handy for FX select/param info/track browse
- looks legit, nicely spaced, built like a tank
Cons:
- very heavy, hard to travel with (you need a case and trolley, i use the magma DDJSZ casey)
- FX LEDs a little dim
- line levels are red/white instead of normal green/yellow/red
- Numark/InMusic support is not ideal
- no filter/fx routing to external audio in - not an issue if you stick to SDJ and just use audio in as a backup
As of october 2016 you can get similar functionality with DDJ-SZ/SX2, Denon MCX-8000, Roland DJ-808
+ Numark Dashboard.
Think long and hard if you will still use it out given the weight! It is a trade off, weight for awesome platters. It is the opposite of a small modular controller like an X1. This is the (literally) heavy artillery! That said, every time I end up DJing a party etc where I make the effort to bring it along I remember why I like it so much, its just so much fun!
