My perfect mixer

As a DJ for more than 20 years, I have gone through more mixers than I care to know. Some were traded for a newer model with a new set of features that I thought I wanted, at the time. But most went by the way side due to the fact that they had expired there useful life expectancy. Back when crossfaders were not user replaceable, that didn’t take long. Having come to this day and age where technology has advanced beyond anything that most people could’ve have imagined, I feel that some manufacturer can make the, “Perfect,” DJ mixer. (at least in my opinion) So the following is a list of things that my ideal DJ mixer would have:

1. Two channels
2. Session in w/ volume control
3. Session out w/ volume control
4. A dedicated record out
5. Split cue w/ switch that can assign master output to either ear.
6. Three 45mm matched, quality faders. (i.e. 3 P&G’s, 3 Pro X-fades or 3 innofaders.)
7. Curve control on all three faders
8. Cut-in time adjustment
9. A completely linear channel fader curve (ala pioneers channel fader curves)
10. Crossfader that has a true dipless A-type curve, a -3db dipped curve and a sharp on off curve.
11. Three band eq’s that kill on each channel
12. XLR master outs and ¼ booth outputs
13. An effects loop with ¼ inputs and outputs
14. ¼ and 1/8 headphone jacks
15. Sturdy feet like those on the old technics mixer
16. A sub $500 price tag

Maybe I’m asking too much, but I really believe that all the things that I am asking are possible. One thing that I know for sure, is that the manufacturer who can make a mixer with all of the above features, will surely get my money. Until then, I will go through mixers like sneakers on my feet.
