Allen & Heath Xone:PX5 DJ Mixer
First off I will say this mixer sounds amazing and I love the effects, effects so versatile and quality. If you are oak with the cross fader which I doubt anyone would be for any gene then this would be a good buy.
Now the bad
The fader curves on this mixer especially the cross fader are TERRIBLE and I mean really poor.
The first curve (x) has a prominant quiet dead spot in the middle and the other two has no curve at all, from a few millimetres in bang! the incoming track is fully in, maximum volume with no curve build up and the cross fader basically does nothing until a few millimetres from the other side. Totally totally useless
Now I watch reviews on this and it was mentioned about the fader but in terms of the cutting distance, nothing has been mentioned on the curves. I knew I might need a invader pro 2 of which they mention on Allen and heaths website that it is compatible, THIS IS NOT COMPATIBLE, the correct plug doesn't come in the box of the innofader pro 2. After weeks of emails to innofader, Allen and heath and audio Technika for a module part to suit it I've got nowhere. Sent everything back for a refund. Real shame, hopefully someone reading this with the intention of buying the px5 with the innofader upgrade will think again and save you're time and money.
