Ok, so let's get this straight first:br /1. Traktor Le, the program that comes with the Numark Stealth is a DEMO program that if not activated will only run for 30 minutes. Even if you activate it, it still is NOTHING compared to Traktor PRO. So, using it TWO days before your gig, like another guy who critiqued it, is not enough time to practice anyway. you should have prepared...br /br /2. This IS NOT a "Plug and Play" Unit. You need to go into the drivers and INSTALL THEM.br / This is the first midi controller I have bought for professional DJing purposes and I made this mistake, but Ibr / installed the drivers and now everything works PERFECTLY. I TOO thought that I was gonna have to return it, but it's not just going to light up automatically, because it is MIDI.br /br /I absolutely LOVE this controller. It feels solid, durable, has rubber knobs and faders (not cheap plastic) and has tons of buttons and infinite knobs.br /br /I DJ regularly at large parties and local club venues.br / It doesn't have a built in sound card, but for only more I suggest getting the Native Instruments Audio DJ2 so you can cue up music through your headphones with awesome quality... 30x better than getting the OMNI, which is the same controller w Built In soundcard.br /br /There are LOTS of forums online filled with people willing to help newcomers with this controller. Trust me, I've needed the help transitioning in to the digital dj world.br /br /I TOTALLY and ENTIRELY recommend this to ANYONE looking for a durable, well thought out controller.

Poor construction and poor documentation - Jon Pape -
Don't buy one. br /br /Mine just broke after a year and Numark doesn't consider it a mixer and it isn't covered by the same warranty. I think they consider it a joystick or something. br /br /The USB plug has a loose connection and will cause a fatal system error WHILE YOU ARE PLAYING which forces you to reboot the computer. Also, my channels for the eq have some sort of bled which cause the levels to drop while you are playing.br /br /Besides you will spend months trying to sync it with Traktor because there is almost no documentation. There are custom TSI files out there but you will not find them on the Numark site and you will have to install and uninstall a bunch before you find one you like. There is no documentation for setting up the mixer to use Traktors 4 turntable setup.br /br /I was playing out last Saturday (10/23/2010) and the unit would play for a minute then crash. It did this repeatedly for almost a hour. I had to tape it down like a loose earbud on a pair of headphones and I'm terrified of trying to play out with it now.

First of all, let me say that I own just about about every DJ style midi device including but not limited to Hercules, M-Audio Xponenet, and Connectiv, etc...this item stacks up well given it's price. First of all the buttons feel pretty solid, even if the knobs are just plastic, it doesn't really seem to take away from it. The aluminum case feels sturdy and well built, and the performance with both Tracktor (not the demo version) as the included Mixmeister are more than acceptable. It's true, as as others have commented that there is some pretty annoying setups to get the LED's to works (on Traktor), but you can google for the .tmk file which others have already mapped out the device. Again, for the price, this is a good investment. Remember, no sound card for this device, so you'll need to invest in either a numark DJIO or some other external soundcard to be able to cue up through your headphones. Some have suggested the usb style soundcard...not sure if it works, but if so makes for a simple solution.br /
