Roland DJ-2000

This mixer has everything I would want in a DJ mixer except for accurate level meters. That's the one thing I would have liked to see added to this product. It would have also been nice if they would have used digital faders. I know they could have afforded to put them on this mixer judging by how much it costs new, ($1399.)

$400 (second hand)

UTILIZATION

It's easy to use once you learn how to use the effects board. It's different, but fun once you get used to it.

This mixer is very solid. However, I believe that you pay too much for what you get. You're paying mainly for the effects board on the mixer. The crossfader and channel faders are all very tight and don't feel like they're built all that well.

SOUNDS

Sound quality is pretty good. The effects are GREAT!!! Although I really don't use too many effects. I think that Roland concentrated more on the effects over anything else. So if you love effects, then this mixer would be the tool for you.

OVERALL OPINION

There are other mixers I would rather have over this one. But it does the job.

She is really complte except the classic phono / line and mic aures, it provides a monitor output, and MIDI output for other devices synchronyser tempo.
The effects section is nice, and offers quite a parameter.
In addition, the rack is bte.
I do not see what you could add, oh yes! rglage a crossfader (dmontable)

UTILIZATION

Easy as good evening!

SOUNDS

It sounds good, ask the eq a little practice, the first mix can spend more difficult than usual but you get done quickly.

OVERALL OPINION

I used all the time I mix (few years) for applications Exceeds sometimes the simple mix between 2 MKII, sampler, synth, everything is pass!
A really friendly and versatile machine trs.
