  • The setup of the software is easy, I had to grab an old receiver and some old speakers so that I have a mini setup.
  • and I've worked the controller into my production (Ableton, Konatckt, Logic), MPC 1000, MPK 25) setup

Reviews around problem (5.00 of 5)

  • It seems as though you will either get a problem free, well-constructed product, or you will get a buggy POS like I did (and many other users have as well).

Reviews around friend (5.00 of 5)

  • A very good professional club DJ friend of mine owns one (and loves it), and his worked flawlessly on my computer as well as several others, so it was the UNIT and NOT user error on my part.

Reviews around vestax (1.80 of 5)

  • My laptop crashed 2 weeks ago and Vestax is unable/unwilling to assist me to with my original activation code
  • However, to pay $1000 for a unit that only features 2-channels, was plagued with issues, and made by a company as arrogant as Vestax was flat-out unacceptable and downright unnerving.
  • NOT SO GOOD a

Reviews around unit (1.00 of 5)

  • A very good professional club DJ friend of mine owns one (and loves it), and his worked flawlessly on my computer as well as several others, so it was the UNIT and NOT user error on my part.
  • As a result, I ended up sending it back to the dealer and fighting them for a refund (which I finally got).My 380 was from the first run and I obviously got a defective unit.
  • My hope is that this has all been corrected by now (6+ months or so after product launch), but I will caution you nonetheless...this unit has proven problematic for a sizable share of users
  • The AutoGain issues were almost legendary at product release (allegedly fixed in the final Itch software update before Itch was killed off and replaced by Serato DJ), except my unit had the same "AutoGain" issues EVEN WITH AUTOGAIN TURNED OFF!!!!
