    I literally just sold my 4-Mx a couple of days ago and after having it for over an year, and having played with mixtrak, DJ2 and some Gemini for a while i can honestly say this thing was super. I especially liked the feel of the jogs. Once you unlock them they sort of “sink” a little when you touch them – which i’m yet to find on any other controller. The other thing is them buttons – they are really heavy duty and take considerable pressure to click, except the transport buttons (CUE, PLAY, etc), which are nice size and quite sensitive.

    I completely agree with Terry. And while i have not had the chance to play around with Twitch, i have TM4, which apart from the 2 extra channel faders and knobs,is pretty much the same as TM2 and i can honestly say there are very few controllers i would be willing to trade it for at this point.

    TM2 is far superior to mixtrack mate. Good choice and congrats.

    Now let’s hope Serato wakes up and actually releases a full version to support the controller.

    If it is USD 500 you meant then i would suggest Terminal Mix 2. You get Serato, VDJ and Traktor mappings and i have to say, from having the TM4 for few days, it is mapped pretty well.
    You could also look into Reloop Digital Jockey 3 and Vestax VCI 400, although the latter one will have to be second hand. Juno UK sells Jockey 3 for £350 now, which imo is a cracker of a deal, and is made for traktor.
    My personal favorite still would be TM2 tho but i might be bias.

    i looking for some controller whith 4 channels and things useful for fx and this stuff
    i just have 800 dollars aprox,

    I think for $800 and 4 channels you can get:

    1 Terminal Mix 4
    2 NS6
    3 4Track
    4 VCI 400
    All of these have excellent reviews and will likely be a good place to start looking.
    It will come down to your personal choice of software etc. NS for example is mapped to serato where 4Track for Traktor

    VCI100 is not a bad choice, although i feel it is getting a bit old now. If you can add a bit more go for Jockey 3 or Hercules 4-Mx. Both work well with VDJ and Traktor.
    I have upgraded from my 4-Mx only recently so if you are on the market for one shoot me a pm as i see you are in UK.

    as already pointed out mixtrack pro is always a good choice. Also i would look into Hercules 4-Mx. Somewhat overlooked it seems but i have had one for about an year and this thing has been nothing short of rock solid.

    Allright, thanks guys! I appreciate it. I was kind of going the TM2 route in my mind but kind of needed that last push i suppose. I’ll go ahead and get the TM2 an d will wait for Serato to release an upgrade option before i gp ahead and make the switch from VDJ.
    Thanks again.
