was wondering if anyone has had a chance to try this mixer out yet. im looking into getting traktor scratch which along with the midi capabilities and firewire is designed for. the mixer also comes with ableton too.

Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
looks like it's got lots of nice buttons. but i can't see paying that much for something to mix with when i'd have to take it with me all the time, and i'm not a professional dj.
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
the djm800 and xone92 are more expensive then this... i just like the fact can use it with ableton and traktor. with traktor i wouldnt even have to touch my computer. that and if its anything like there hardware im sure sounds great.
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
^but...
you're never going to see one of these in a club. you'll see the 800/92 everywhere. as awesome of a machine it is, i can't see getting used to something i won't ever see out.
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
that was one of the reasons I said "i can't see paying that much for something to mix with when i'd have to take it with me all the time, and i'm not a professional dj." meaning the only person who would lug something like this around WOULD be a professional DJ.
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
ah sorry alittle slow wasnt picking up exactly what you were meaning jeff...i totally see your guys points..i wasnt really looking at it from that point of view since i dont spin out...
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
I would just consider spending 100 and getting this...

The Evolution UC-33e[/QUOTE]
I've been looking at this for a while. Looks like it's the most affordable midi device on the market being at around $200. Lots of knobs, lots of faders, and a bunch of buttons..would be perfect for me!. Sasha even sported it for two gigs at the beginning of this tour after the maven broke. While it's shit sitting next to his maven or the korg he is using now, it's still functional enough for me.
I need something like this that I can play around with when traveling or away from my house where I don't have my cdjs and mixer.

That thing scares me!!!
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
it's made for doing video at the same time as audio, which is why the thing has NASA like looks.
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
it incorporates the video aspect yes, dont think it was MADE for that.. it simplifies the use of the on board effects by not using touch screen instead of the stupid little dial that the 500/600/800 have.. amoung other outstanding features.. nowt to be scared about tho, lol ;)
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
overkill 101.
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
^^^exactly.
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
i disagree, its a great mixer, just WAY too expensive.. but the club that has it also has two pioneer dvj's in the booth :)
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
If you hae the SV 1000 do you even need lighting in the club. There is enough coming of the face of this debachery!
Re: Has anyone used the Korg Zero4 yet?
well at least it would light up the dj booth a little more than they usually are. I'm the kind of person that I don't like not being able to see the dj.
