hi ,
does anyone one on here know where i can buy one of these consoles in the uk ?,tried 5 different shops today off the net ,seems nobody has them in stock or have ever actually had them in stock yet,they tell me the dates that they have suppossed to be recieving their orders are being continually put back ,has it actually been released properly yet?maybe their are problems with the console?most of them tell they have been waiting since february!!
another question does the mixer have a soundcard inside it ?one shop told me the first version did ,but mk2 wont or if it has its really feeble?as im gonna be using it from a laptop that has a good spec but rubbish soundcard will it be ok ?,or will i have to consider buying an external soundcard to get anykinda decent performance from it?
thanks in advance for any help or advice given

Hi, i managed to get my DJ Console from NUSystems.co.uk.
The console does have its own soundcard so no additional hardware is required, the output sounds fine to me, although its not going to be in the same leage as a dedicated £200 soundcard. I have upgraded from a MK1 console and so far this one is a big improvement.

Yeah that's where mine came from too. My only complaint with them would be that the console that they sent me must have been returned by a previous customer, as I couldn't get this website to recognise it - somebody must have already registered the serial number. Ah well, so I don't get a mk2 logo next to my name... no biggy.

I got mine from amazon.co.uk - took about 2-3 weeks for them to deliver it. It arrived about a week ago...

Funny you should say that DJSharz, mine also came from a customer return however they did tell me this beforehand and discount me 10%

I got mine from www.dawsonsonline.com good service from them. I had ordered from Amazon in early January (may have even been late February) and they never had stock for months. You can also use www.thomann.de it's a German site but in the EU so you shouldn't have to pay shipping taxes, just local VAT.
