YEP, this is the one I want!! Cannot wait to play with it at the local GC store when they get one.
 
*Droool...
 
I want to have those skills first, then I'll drool over the decks ;)
 
I'm practicing already on one I made out of cardboard and cellotape. ;)
 
I'll stick with the MC-6000. I will however say that mix was hot! Very nice skills on the NS6!
 
Came a little to late if you ask me, the fact that it's not a mixer when the MC6000 out.
 
I tried the unit out at the PAL 2011 show (Pro Audio & Lighting) in Toronto on Sunday May 15.



The platters have a nice resistance to them and are very responsive, perfect for a scratch DJ. All knobs and sliders feel very fluent and solid, and the casing is pretty rugged. However, I was not a fan of the small and hard feeling plastic buttons for the hot cues and loop controls. The MC-6000 definitely wins in that department. The buttons are a hardened plastic and lack that positive feeling you get when pushing a gel style button.

Overall, it's a very nice unit, but after 6 months of waiting on it's release, I'm a bit disappointed as hot cues and loops are used in my sets constantly.
 
I only wish those jogs were on the Mixdeck quad...........

When it comes mixing. I preffer using a comfortable sized deck. The Denon Mc 6000, Vms4, hercules Rmx, Vci 300 are history. Too small and uncomfortable.

whats the pricetag on this?
 
999
 
 
Yes this is some pretty serious specs on the NS6! I love this thing already and havent got to see it or play it yet.
 
It looks sweet. What happened with the Gemini Ctrl-47. It was suppose to be out already but there is no news of it being out. I am going to wait until it comes out so I can compare Gemini vs Ns6.
