Just because the MIXDECK is an all-in-one DJ solution doesn't mean Numark skimped on the important details. Two genuine Numark CD decks are incorporated in to the core design of the MIXDECK, and each deck is a fully functional DJ-style CD player with an illuminated control platter for cueing, beat-matching, and scratch techniques. In addition, each has a super-smooth loading mechanism, and two big, backlit LCD displays.

The icing on the cake here is that you can connect your Numark MIXDECK to a laptop and use it as a USB DJ control surface. The Mixer deck sends information via MIDI over USB, and can be used with a wide variety of mixing software. There's even direct stereo outs on each deck to feed into a timecode interface like the Serato SL3 or NI Audio 8 for Traktor. The Numark MIXDECK ships with a copy of Virtual DJ LE to get you going.

Looping, Sampling, And Digital Effects
Numark didn't just stop at providing a solid foundation. The MIXDECK also includes looping and sampling functions for complete, on-the-fly remixing capabilities, and a beat-syncing function that ensures seamless loops. The BPM-tracking also enhances the Numark MIXDECK's on-board digital effects, including chop, echo, flanger, pan, and phaser effects.
