Re: American Audio VMS4 DJ Controller

The American Audio booth is right across from us here at the Expo. The VMS4 seems to be slightly lacking, I've heard a couple complaints from people who've checked it out (nothing you haven't already mentioned here). I'd look into the Reloop as well, seems like a pretty solid controller. I've been using the Vfx Control with Cross and it's fantastic, I'm not sure if it's better to use with Cross or Vfx - the built in soundcard with plug-n-play is tops!

It's time to release the controller as a single product ;)

Jim B wrote:Yes, you're right Steve. Denon products are far better and higher quality than Audio American, and the price reflects that to some degree.


If I learned once in my short life than "if you buy cheap stuff you will buy twice" :) I know how hard it is for some guys - me included as a student - to save some money, but it is worth saving when you get a product of higher quality afterwards.

Nevertheless: Jim you should lay your hands on the denon and try, you will mention after minutes if it is worth a buy ;)

Yes mate, I've just been looking at the Digital Jockey 2 Master Edition controller (cheers Ralf) on the Reloop site and it does look rather interesting indeed, in actual fact I'm quite impressed with the looks and spec's of the controller/mixer.

Also the price does look reasonable too ;)

I didn't mention the Vfx CONTROLLER because of the different form factor and because it has no mixer-functionality like the VMS4 and the DIGITAL JOCKEY 2 MASTERING EDITION. But in fact it is great for using with Cross 1.4. Due to the fact that I own a Vfx Control for 10 months approx. and also a Vestax VCI-100 for three years now I can tell you that both are top quality controllers. But without a build-in stand alone mixer. I checked the RELOOP INTERFACE EDITION for one day when it was brand new. So I can't tell about reliability. But out of the box it is fine.

The learning is on the software side, it is the application that learn how to use/manage the controler. ;)

Bought it five minutes ago, now I am waiting like a little child waiting for christmas :D I hope that this controller fullfills my needs, I really hope it. If so it could replace my CDJs after those have replaced my Technics :D More when I configured it in Cross and played with it.
