REVIEW: Livid CNTRL:R MIDI Controller

DJing is a moving target these days, and the Livid CNTRL:R MIDI controller typifies this perfectly. Chris Cartledge presses buttons and writes words.

Allen & Heath Xone:K2 vs Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol F1review

GROUP TEST: Kontrol F1 vs Xone K2

Group test! Well if 2 products is a group that is. We pitch the Kontrol F1 against the Xone:K2 and consider if it's apples and oranges or not.

Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol F1 DJ Controller

The Remix Decks in Traktor really need NI's new Kontrol F1 to bring out the best in them. Jared Helfer and Chris Cartledge work it hard.

REVIEW: Allen & Heath Xone K2 DJ Controller

The Xone K2 controller shouts the modular buzz word loud, in the general direction of Berlin. Chris Cartledge turns up the volume.

REVIEW: Stanton DJC.4 DJ Controller

A cost effective controller for everyone - the Stanton DJC.4 with Virtual DJ ticks more boxes than ever for entry level DJs.

Vestax VCI-400 Controller Review

The Vestax VCI-400 is a beast of a MIDI controller. Legendary UK DJ and guest writer Paul Dakeyne takes one for a test drive.

Gemini CDJ-700 Media Player Review

We all get where Gemini are coming from with the CDJ-700. But does it make a valiant attempt and flatter the one it mimics?

Denon MC-3000 MIDI Controller Review

Denon's rebirth as Denon DJ has yielded the 2 channel MC-3000. We take a look.

Numark NS6 Review

Numark have blazed a trail in the controller market, from the smallest and cheapest, right up to the premium levels. The NS6 fulfils the needs of 4 channel DJs in a premium Serato ITCH based box. We took it for a spin.

Numark DJ2GO Review

MIDI controllers show a disturbing sign of spiralling out of... errr... control right now. So it's nice to get one that has no delusions of grandeur. Numark's DJ2GO is a diminutive box of fun that costs relatively next to nothing. And we do love it so.

Pioneer Ergo-V Review

Pioneer are best known for high end club installs, favoured by VIP DJs on a global basis. But now they're going for the mass market. The Ergo-V is an undoubtedly funky lump of gear aimed at the lifestyle scene, and we reviewed it accordingly.
