The lack of patience just comes from timing and monetary reasons. If I was to say I didn't want a controller now I'd have to buy it for myself as opposed to getting it as a gift, which I can't really afford to do. That's why if the U-Mix Control Pro 2 did so much more were there any other alternatives that would do similar/offer more than the Pro.

I'm a big Hercules fan.

I've got the Hercules 4-Mx which is a mint controller but it's a tab bit out of your price range.

Hercules have just released the new RMX 2

I've just googled it and it's has a RRP of around £280, but the only problem is that it won't be natively supported with Cross yet, so you will have to map it yourself.

Me, personally I would wait for the U-Mix Control Pro 2 to be released and see it that suits your needs

Thanks Jim. Neither of those are out of my price range really (after a bit of searching) but I'm not sure they'll give me anything extra that the Pro wouldn't. Would these enable me to use timecode as well?

My current thinking is that I will get the Pro, sell my current external mixer and U46, but keep my LDP8. That way, any function the Pro won't do, I can program that LDP8 to handle. I currently have that configured for effects and filter, but I could change this to setting more hot locations and keep the filter.

I appreciate everyone telling me to wait, but waiting means getting no controller at all. Someone buying you something as a gift or buying it for yourself is very different!

Didnt realize that you had a akai lpd8,,the plan you have seems to fit all the needs ,, now i wish you had gotten the pro earlier when it was on the summer special enjoy the control pro , you will like it,,

On the topic of controllers. Is the Cross 2.0 compatible with the Numark Mixdeck Quad? I mean is it or will it be in the near future Plug and Play like it is with the Mixdeck pro.
Thanks

It shouldn't be hard to map, I guess it is not too far from the other one.

I guess not, How come Mixvibes didn't think of it. The question is will they add more controllers to the list more specifically the mixdeck quad?

Mapping all the controler of the universe ? Yeah we're hardly wishing to do so...
