Nice Upgrade
This is a decent mixer at a good price. I have no bleed from any of the channels, the sound is more than good enough for mobile dj work. It's a nice size to work with (hint, get a road case), doesn't feel crammed together at all. The channel faders are a little looser than I'd like, but still very usable. I can't speak for the effects at all, as I have no use for them - same for the expander function, whatever it is. As for the BPM displays, I could do without them. Never use a display for what you should do by ear in a mix.
The only negative I see is the lack of XLR output. Everything is RCA only. Assuming you own a DVS box, this would easily function in that kind of setup. On it's own however, it is NOT a MIDI controller. This will NOT run Serato, Virtual DJ, Traktor, etc. Knowing this from the start, I had no expectations that it would do MIDI. For my needs, my controller and backup pc plug into a channel each, along with a mic and another backup connection for my iPad. Yes it's redundant, but that's the general idea. Nobody wants a crash, then no music at a wedding reception. Always have a backup. And this mixer filled that need for me.
