The delivery of Amazon, as always, without exception, SUPER! On August 13, it was sent and the morning August 14 came to it (standard shipping !!!).
Now back to the device:
When I entgegendnahm the box I was a bit taken aback, because I wondered how because the DJ controller should fit in as a package?
I then finally the controller unpacked and found that it still is quite small, but I got used to it quickly.
Now my experiences at a glance:
Packaging: *****
The unit is packed securely and in shrink-wrapped ---> So be it!
Installation & Software: *****
The supplied driver and the DJ program are installed quickly and is updated when an Internet connection immediately. DJUCED means mitgeliferte DJ program. It is perfectly matched to the Hercules Instinct Controller. Personally, I find, however, that since Virtual DJ gives a better impression.
Design: ****
The design is modern, but looks just out for cheap plastic. The device has for its size, the right weight. Furthermore, the orange-backlit buttons fit really well to matt part and the part of the glossy black casing.
Connections & usability: *****
The connections are perfect, because you can connect the set via RCA, as well as via jack to his boxing / plant.
In addition, the device has a built headphone output with integrated sound card, which allows the monitoring of the tracks.
The faders and knobs can be moved very carefully and turn. However, when the volume faders occurs a small delay.
Sound quality: ****
Have connected to my Teufel Ultima 40 speakers via RCA (on Pionieer amplifier) the device. The sound quality is good, but not perfect. Especially the effects sometimes listen to something unclean. One should also make sure to have a good PC / laptop, otherwise really annoying interference / noise noise. (See further --More unten--)
CONCLUSION: *****
Great tool for beginners who first arrive in the matter and not all their savings for as want to cut a unit upside down.
PS You should have a good PC / laptop have, since the program is quite demanding. On my netbook (Intel Atom / 1GB RAM) has often hung the program and the sound quality has suffered greatly.
