Seems to have enough to use Traktor DJ. If the xone:3d wouldn't be coming, I would go ahead and order this controler from Spain.

Seems like a reasonable good piece of equipment. I've never seen it here in Holland su I'm curious if anybody is allready using it..... If so : How is it

Hey I am the maker of the video SonicWalker links to. I recieved my KontrolDJ a month ago and it's a really good piece of equipment. It indeed has a really clean layout with not too many buttons. But as you can see in the video, buttons can have multiple tasks. While pressing the shift button, or one of the select buttons you give the buttons, jogs or knobs another function. This sounds confusing but is in fact quite simple.

It seems that the knobs of the EQ are very close to the chanel fader, does it bother you ? I'm also kinda curious to the latency when you use the Cue stutter function, any idea how much ?

yeah they're pretty close so you have to be a little carefull. but it's not so that you always touch the fader when you turn one of the eq knobs.

there's absolutely no noticable latency when pressing the cue buttons or any other knob/button/jog.
