Thanks for your quick responses.
My concerns with the MC4000 is that I wish the VU meter displayed the gain of Track A only when Track A was playing; if Track B wasn’t playing, I wish it wouldn’t light up. Could this be a long-term problem or could it be fixed with a firmware update? Also, I am not too familiar with Denon and I know that Pioneer is known for their build quality. But as Todd stated, if this thing is built like a tank, then this is probably not a relevant concern.
DJ Vintage, I did a brief eBay search and purchasing a used controller doesn’t appear to be a significantly better investment than buying a new one. It seems to be only marginally cheaper to take this rout. Am I missing something? Also, it appears that the MC4000 is mappable to many different software programs. Does this mean that the software that I use should be less of a concern if I am able to alternate?
Thanks again guys!
