Mixers < £200

Does anyone have any good mixer recommendations for less then 200 quid? Im looking at the numark digital range which seem cool but a bit put off witht he 2 channels. Also how exactly would the usb connection work with a pc? Ideally id like to have 3 channels... Some of the behringers seem tempting but ive not heard great reviews

basic is certainly true. Id want it to try and learn some scratching on too so xfader curve adjust is reasonably imporant too

how do you mean sound leakage?

it does seem tempting although my desk space atm is pretty limited, looks like a bit of a beast! No fx or anything either

your best bet when learning is to buy two identical tunes (probably house/techno is easiest) and just practice mixing them, itll be easier to see when they are in time. Trying to learn with stuff like trance can be hard for a begginer because sometimes the beat is hard to pick out with all the synths and stuff

For whoever it was I wouldnt mind tinkering with some scratching so id like at least the possibility of having a good scratch mixer should I need it. Im not that fussed about fx etc cos I have some built into my decks. I Just want nice crisp sound quality with eqs that work

For whoever said they used citronics and they sucked I loved my pdq's! Awesome decks for the money, had em about 3years or so and they never put a foot wrong. Torque wasnt far off 1210's either

awesome, how it worked with me and my mates is that for a certain period of time you cant get it at all, then one day you can suddenly mix. Dunno if itll be the same for you but keep at it
