Hi people,
This is my first post on here... I have just ordered the DVS Pack MKII from amazon and it should get to me for tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to getting it set up as I have only ever mixed with vinyl... and since my local record shop shut down I have been fairly limited to the tunes I play.
With my new beatport membership I can now get tunes as soon as they come out and be mixing with them instantly... WHY DID I NOT BUY THIS SOONER!!!
One question though... can I use my MIDI key board with the software to control effects and loops?

Hi and welcome on board!

Yes you can thanks to the MIDI learning feature or built in MIDI presets:

I got my delivery of the DVS yesterday and got it all set up today... It's better than I was expecting for it's price range. It didn't take much getting used to at all, the set up was increadibly easy and mixing is no different at all from vinyl. The only problem is my MIDI keyboard isn't on the list... Its got exactly the same layout as the oxygen 8 but the oxygen 8 presets dont work... short of setting up all the programming myself I don't know what I can do. Anyone got any ideas?
