Re: advice on xone mixers

I'd say go for the 92. It has midi (though limited) at least it has midi hehe
The biggest factor for me, is aside from the plus in features are the faders. I
really don't like the faders on the 62 and since you mentioned you wanna do some
scratching and I assume you'd like to use the mixer as an instrument, the faders
on the 92 will definitely give you the control over the ones on the 62.

small rock clubs, and in the store and at home. i'll be doing dj sets on it (i
like to mix with a bit of basic scratching), pretty much any type of music, and
for playing with my band.

it really is lightyears ahead of the 62 (which is my probable choice) in terms
of sound and features, i may just go for that instead.

crossfader for scratching that you don't have on the 62.

since it's a rack installation unit, with all the connectors on the bottom. and
ive got the audio 8 dj so the pretty basic card on the s2 might not even be
used... good price on it though, esp since it's pretty new compared to the other
xones.

pick up... but i've got a korg km-202 with a decent adjustable cf in it
anyways...

things re the stability of the thing), the 32 at 35k (too few connections), and
the 02 at 28k (great scratch mixer but only two channels).

use some opinions :)
