As i wait patiently wait for Joel Zimmerman's friend confirmation.
lets review another piece of technology that i wish to own someday.
the almighty XONE 4D controller from Allen & Heath.
a mixer, a soundcard, and a midi controller all in one.
DJ Mixer:
4 multi-input stereo channels: RIAA preamps for turntables on 3 inputs, (channel 4 is Line/Line)
Soundcard output routing switches for each channel (1-2, 3-4, 5-6, and 7-8)
3-band total kill EQ: 6dB to off
2 FX sends: pre/post selection (internal on FX2)
2 stereo returns
Headphone monitor with mix/cue control: 3.5mm and 1/4" sockets
2 analogue VCF filters low-pass, band-pass, high-pass (can be combined for more filter types), resonance frequency, and filter 'on' switch
Filter assignable LFO with depth control and brand-new editable fader step-filter function
Completely re-designed and functionally improved BPM detection circuit
Mic input: on XLR connector; gain control and 2-band EQ control available: routable straight to soundcard
Power supply: High performance internal switch-mode supply
RIAA: for three turntables (four via internal jumper link)
Dual rail VCA crossfader
USB 2.0 soundcard:
20 channel, 96 kHz, 24-bit soundcard connecting via wide-bandwidth USB 2.0 (480Mbit/s)
Uses 24-bit stereo analogue to digital converters and digital to analogue converters (not lower spec CODECs)
10 in/10 out (4 stereo in, optical in/4 stereo out, optical out)
No software configuration utility; all front panel switched
Soundcard inputs fed from Mic, FX2, FX1, Main Mix or from stereo channels 1-4
Sends: mix, FX, or individual analogue channels may be routed to PC or digital outputs
New record output: FX2 RCA outputs can be switched to an RCA record output
Drivers available for PC and Mac
MIDI Controller:
2 separate layers of MIDI controllers with control pickup algorithm ensuring a smooth transition between layers
227 MIDI control messages available from 105 separate MIDI controls
8 x 60mm linear faders
16 detented rotary pots
10 rotary encoders
50 switches
2 custom jog wheels with 4 micro switches
8 illuminated push switches
Allen & Heath Xone:4D is compatible with any PC software that has MIDI assignable functions: for instance, lighting controller or visual effects programs
at almost $3000 you're gonna get all you need in this controller.
