Such a cool vibe to this mixer ... thanks for walking us through .. cheers ..

[@LiamKillen]

Cool vibes for days- cheers to you!

[@Hrotti]

The elara series from union audio looks so good

[@LiamKillen]

I’ll have my hands on one soon 😏

[@LiamKillen]

The elera 4

[@jtru3640]

Excited to hear how it stacks up against Model 1! ​@@LiamKillen

[@yourcitysleeps]

Wow look at that thing 😮

[@LiamKillen]

👀

[@DeepDishCoffee]

This looks cool has fx too

[@LiamKillen]

Yeah it’s a great addition!

[@binchsoda]

Would love to hear a whole set by Mateo! I liked the tracks and techniques

[@LiamKillen]

There’s not much online but I think he’s planning on uploading some stuff soon! We’ll see!

[@binchsoda]

@LiamKillen I'll be looking forwards to that :3

[@RaquelFoster]

Rotary mixers are cool, and the MasterSounds Radius is the one I would pick if I was getting one. HPFs are the best! That would've been cool if they cleaned up the right side of the mixer and either made it more compact or fit in a Beat FX-type section. But just cramming in a weird-ass binary FX section WITHOUT relocating any of the existing knobs - except for pushing the isolator over to the right? Well... That's ridiculous. I don't know anything about why Andy Rigby-Jones left Allen & Heath or why he also stopped working with MasterSounds. But it's starting to look like he might be an insane diva. How can the guy who made the Xone 92 and worked on the Model 1 with Richie Hawtin be the same guy who said, "Hey guys let's take the sexy MasterSounds design and drill a few holes in it and install some digital FX!" Yeah, that's a great idea.

[@LiamKillen]

Yeah it's def not built for everyone. Thanks for your input here though ! :-)

[@Bigger-Circuitry-Bigger-SOUND]

the ISOLATOR IS THERE EXACTLY TO CUT THE LOWS WHEN YOU INSERT THE FX 😅, GUYS RESPECTFULLY EDUCATE A BIT ON ROTARY MIXING BECAUSE ALL THIS CONVERSATION IS A BIT IMPROVISED AMATORIAL FULL OF MISCONCEPTIONS. MIXING WITH ROTARY IS AN ART FORM OF ITS OWN IS DIFFERENT

[@LiamKillen]

All caps hitting different

[@Bigger-Circuitry-Bigger-SOUND]

@@LiamKillen nope, i was writing a in Canva than commented here with-ought even considering that “caps” might “hit differently”, my 2 cent are: this mixer is no way near the original V6, this mixer is Sourface Mount tech inside (like Behringer gears are but behringer sell for a fraction)! the magic of rotary mixers is the circuitry, Rotary mixers are superb when summing of the sources so before purchasing one “watch for how is build inside” that is what reflect the quality of sound. Bozak (vintage USA made only not UK), UREI 1629, ISONOE, CONDESA, Varia Instruments and ARS are the best rotary the rest be careful as they are more marketing than substance! Sane Story with synthesisers the only company actually in the world that build PROPER HIGH QUALITY SYNTHESISERS is next to you door and is Studio Electronics now if you open an Omega 8 or a Minimidi than open a Moog one or a whatever modern sequential , ekektron , korg etc you will see that Studio Electronics will look inside like a vintage jupiter 8 all THROUGH HOLE and all the modern products of big brands, moog sequential, korg will look exactly like behringer inside and with this i live you to deduce a conclusion. cheers tho from EU

[@RaquelFoster]

LOL when you put a delay on a track you usually want to take the low-end off the FX tail to keep the kick clean. But thanks for explaining it to me now I know I should just use the isolator and remove the kick entirely. Thank you Marco Carola for showing me the way of rotary mixing!

[@Bigger-Circuitry-Bigger-SOUND]

@ oh gosh 😅🤦🏼‍♂️, you don’t even know what you are talking about….is unbelievable how much BS non sense can humans produce just driven by ego and “ me the little me thar want to show of “ instead of learning and adding true value…hope that young folks will not take your “mixing technique seriously” or pure guys will be kicked out of the venue by the sound engineer … 😅😅

[@MaDmanEXE]

Binary? As if binary to 7-segment (digits) couldn't be done with discrete analog components or single few cents chip

[@LiamKillen]

You’d have to ask Mateo for the specifics on that one haha

[@binchsoda]

I think the point is this is much more compact, besides it's pretty easy to read, and doesn't ruin the look with a 7 segment display

[@HeyAsh-xx5kw]

I've been thinking about something like this for part of a live hardware set up, but really wanted to avoid any conversations with djs for obvious reasons. Thanks

[@LiamKillen]

Could be a good idea to check out the 4 channel in a hardware setting ... in any case, thanks for watching :-)

[@pablospace]

Obvios reasons? Not so obvios for me 🤓

[@Basscouch]

That’s the kind of mixer that a techno headliner makes the production company rent for him…. It cost a lot and there is a big run around to find it…. Then the headliner ends up not using it.

[@LiamKillen]

😂

[@_wrks]

Good luck in the dark. This thing is annoying lmao. Interesting video nonetheless.

[@LiamKillen]

You think it’s annoying!?

[@LiamKillen]

lol my thoughts exactly

[@nolyspe]

I try to keep an open mind about gear but this is sort of ridiculous...

[@LiamKillen]

🤔

[@anyerquantum.nuclearrites]

looks like a toy to me.

[@LiamKillen]

Does not feel like one!!

[@baldmandj4559]

Built like a tank and amazing sound quality. Pioneer mixers are toys in comparison.

[@anyerquantum.nuclearrites]

@ I appreciate that you’re trying to sell me on this mixer, but I want to clarify a few things. First, I’m not particularly into Pioneer gear-I prefer Allen & Heath for its build quality and sound. When your main selling points are its aesthetics and how it suits house music, it comes off as lacking substance. Honestly, it looks more like a toy than a serious piece of equipment. Just my perspective, but I think focusing on the technical aspects and performance would make for a stronger pitch.

[@baldmandj4559]

@@anyerquantum.nuclearrites built by Andy Rigby Jones should tell you everything you need to know

[@anyerquantum.nuclearrites]

@@djstuc Reviews should focus on technical performance, not just aesthetics. It’s fine to embrace the hipster vibe and have your opinions, but don’t expect everyone to take your subjective preferences as objective facts.

[@MesGuided]

They lost me at RCA…

[@LiamKillen]

Lol

[@LiamKillen]

You don’t want that analog warmth!?

[@MesGuided]

@@LiamKillen that's what overpriced vintage samplers are for 🤣🤣

[@LiamKillen]

😅

[@Bigger-Circuitry-Bigger-SOUND]

dude complaining about RCA means that you know NOTHING literally NOTHING about Audio

[@Bigger-Circuitry-Bigger-SOUND]

OH GOSH 🤦🏼‍♂️ SO MANY IGNORANT AMATORIAL IN AUDIO COMPLAINING ABOUT RCA, ACTUALLY RCA IS BETTER FOR UNBALANCED AUDIO THAN TS ….. SO MANY PEOPLE OWN GEARS AND HAVE 0 KNOWLEDGE IN AUDI

[@LiamKillen]

Bro the all caps though

[@dedondigital]

You probably have many arguments to back this up?
