I've completely switched over to DJay Pro with the Mixon 8. I've migrated my library to Apple Music and use it as my primary source. Nice to be able to prep on my Macbook and it automatically syncs right away to my iPad. And being able to use either or both iPad and Macbook connected to the Mixon 8 at the same time is a game changer.

Great review as usual Mojaxx! I've been using an iPad with Algoriddim djay Pro in the booth for about 5 years now. I much prefer a tablet over a laptop in the booth and don't think I'll ever switch back. I also swapped out the Mixon 8 Pro EQ knobs for DJ TechTools Chroma Caps. Definitely hard to view the stock ones in a dark booth.

I've been practicing with djay Pro a lot more frequently and have even used it at some smaller gigs. I'm using it with an iPad Air 4th gen and it hasn't given me any issues yet. I really hope they improve the Neral Mix feature soon. I love the fact that I can have the same playlists on my iPad and on my phone as a backup. Djay Pro still has a lot going for them.

Absolutely brilliant, thank you so much for reviewing, being an OG Kontrol S4 user for years, this unit looks great now that I've moved on from Traktor. The only thing I wish it had was Loop Encoders, but your review has solidified this as my next control. Thanks mate 🤙
@SonareDJ11 ай бұрын
Yes. Ive recently upgraded my iPad to one of the new Pro models and subscribed to both Algorithm DJ and Tidal with a Numark DJ2GO2 Touch as backup for my main Traktor rig. It's been absolutely great to be able to properly DJ streamed tracks unlike my previous setup of just Spotify. This controller loos the dogs balls if I want to upgrade that basic setup to something more complete. Only downside is that I don't want to switch to Serato. I'm a bit of a Traktor guru and I'm completely comfortable with the software. So a midi map for Traktor (If it's possible) would be ideal. But on the whole I'm very interested in this product, having previously been eyeing up the Denon SC-Live. Concise and informative review as always. Keep up the good work!

I’ve had the Mixon 8 for about 6 months now and I had to get an external light so I could see the mixer section during gigs. It’s a legitimate issue, but also super minor in the grand scheme. Returned the flx10 after 2 weeks because I love this unit so much.

Omg I just let out a yelp when I read your comment because-- ME TOOOOOO}. Exactly to everything you said and I definitely agree that it IS an issue ANDI ALSO agree with you in regards to the fact that I really love this controller otherwise". I just pulled my chroma cap off my old mixer but they are kind beat f*** up soooo it was a little annoying to have this great new piece of hardware and have it look a little worn right off the bat. I have actually been posting on various web boards and such about this and now that I hear you had the same issue I think I am going to reach out to relook.

Great video as usual! I got the Mixon 8 because I've been using dJay Pro for gigs a lot more, and I needed something that integrated with it seamlessly (my DDJ-1000SRT wasn't cutting it for me). Plus I dabble with DJ'ing from my iPad, and it works perfectly. One glaring omission (for me, at least) is the absence of a CENSOR button. I'm used to that from Pioneer controllers, and it is a very handy feature. Apart from that, it's an awesome controller.
@adriannoriega680111 ай бұрын
Yeah I agree with this. I loved using that feature on my older Denon Prime. Have you found a work around to censor on the Mixon ?
@TheCovenantChild11 ай бұрын
@@adriannoriega6801 not really. I guess you could use slip mode & "scratch out" the parts you wanna censor. Much more hand movement than a simple button
@vegandadbod71578 ай бұрын
There is a censor „effect“ in the djay pro software. So you might wanna map it to any button you can spare. Mapping itself is easy in djay pro.

it would be great if all of these controller have 6 or 8 extra assignable knobs, so you can do a little more with custum mapping (stems and stuff etc)

Great review (as always) Mojaxx. You and I are probably of a similar age. Like you I started on old school analog mixers with vinyl but switched to controllers/digital around 10-years ago. I’ve bought controllers (in part) based on your reviews…especially when it comes to build quality. In this review you’ve mentioned metal pots and great build quality…but overall, I have to say that controllers just don’t seem to have the same durability of analog mixers. I’ve had to submit some for repair (replacement of pots/fader), after which the feel is never the same!! I was wondering if you could use your clout to encourage manufacturers to invest a little more build quality?

having 3 dedicated knobs for effects on each deck is ideal for Serato IMO. Shame on other brands for dropping this feature.

Unfortunately I could not remedy the issue and it began to happen more frequent. The Mixon and DJpro would freeze and the Mixon would unsync from my mac. I actually took a video and attached it to my return for refund. Went with a Rane Four and not a single issue since.

Great device but with a lot of difficult caveats. #1 its price was too high competing with the DDJ-1000/SRT used and many willing to save for a FLX10. #2 mirrored layouts are not favored anymore, some consider it a huge drawback #3 wait time #4 algoriddim DJ for many is difficult to move too still. It has so many good things going for it but the marketing team & Reloop are making weird moves to be different
