    I don’t have a backup DJ system yet, but think it would be a good idea. I do have backup power amps.

    Half of the controller didn’t respond, it just died on me, luckily I have my back up setup now. and I have a feeling that the behringer bcd3000 will last for yeaaarss. the headphones for now seem pretty decent, VERY comfortable, nice sound, lets see if they last…

    Why did you change from Mixtrack pro to Bcd3000? I thing the Numark is lightyears better than the behringer.
    My back up set is a eee-pc and a mixtrack pro.

    this answers a few points about the denon mc6000.this controller works independently so if your laptop dies for example you can still function with turntables etc.oh btw best practice is to have a spare external hard drive incase the worst happens.

    EDIT:but im lucky is i usually carry a spare dell xps l502 with me

    Got the Denon MC6000 with VDJ. The controller is a standalone mixer too, but if I have to reset the pc I have to reset to controller aswell for them to connect properly.

    I use a external analog mixer “Samson MDR6” that I run the MC6000, a mini-laptop and a microphone through.
    The mini-pc stands readdy with a mix if something goes to shit and it´s connected to spotify too.

    Are you running the latest firmware? That was a problem in the original version, but it was fixed pretty quickly. You shouldn’t need to be resetting the Denon due to a software crash – and certainly not from resetting the PC.

    I almost never take out my Numark, only use it at home because I dont like packing it every single time, so I just leave it at home. So I just keep the Behringer BCD3000 in my car. I don’t think the Mixtrack Pro really outshines the BCD3000 by far, only at the jogwheels at least it does there, but in the rest the BCD3000 works just fine, but its old so yeah maybe the mixtrack pro has that advantage, if they bring out another behringer budget controller that is to date, it might be a challenge for the mixtrack budget market. In my opinion at least. I also think Vestax and Reloop if they keep launching amazing controllers at cheap prices, might soon be competition.

    Yes, bcd3000 is perfect to stuck under a seat in the car just to be use in case of an emergancy 😉
