it does look very good. however, i was just thinking of a
cheap one. i here you can get good ones for £60-£100. ones
that just look like normal mixer. . .

It does indeed look good. I know there was made especially
Ableton live but I can't find it anywhere.

Oh ok, hahaha. Sweet. Was it expensive?

I bought it from ebay from an american store. Works out
about £80 cheaper than buying in the UK, but it all depends
if I get screwdrivered by customs tax (they said they were
gonna set the value as under £20 and a gift, but thats
still no guarentee)

I think it costs about £260 retail in the UK sir.

Well, that isn't too bad. Please let me know how it works
for you because it looks to be exactly what I am after.

set your hotkeys properly and you wont need an interface,
just your regular dj mixer

i really want to get the vestax controller its on sale on
ebay from an american ebay shop selling it for £200
here i checked inland revenue website and
apparently there is a tax fee of just 3.5% which is pretty
good,

all other uk shops are selling for minimum £350, does
anyone know if there are any other costs for importing

I always find loads of conflicts when I try to set the
hotkeys in Ableton. It's a right pain in the arse.

make sure to turn off the option to have the keyboard play
midi notes. i forget that almost every time i start a new
project and spend too many minutes trying to figure out what
the bleeding hell is wrong.
