Behringer NOX Mixers Announced

    I'll be the first to admit that I was never really a fan of Behringer products. For most of my past 18-year DJ experience, I have come to learn that Behringer products were often priced well, but the quality also suffered from this pricing model. For the past few years, Behringer has been (successfully) trying to change their image as they have been starting to come out with some higher quality products with innovative features as well. Behringer has just announced its NOX mixer line that all come with VCA "contact-free" crossfaders, effects, and USB connectivity for track playback. Check inside for the press release and details.

    I'll be the first to admit that I was never really a fan of Behringer products. For most of my past 18-year DJ experience, I have come to learn that Behringer products were often priced well, but the quality also suffered from this pricing model. For the past few years, Behringer has been (successfully) trying to change their image as they have been starting to come out with some higher quality products with innovative features as well. Behringer has just announced its NOX mixer line that all come with VCA "contact-free" crossfaders, effects, and USB connectivity for track playback. They will come in five different flavors ranging from 2-channels to 6-channels. The NOX404 (pictured) is the mixer that I am the most interested in. The NOX404 has a tension adjustable crossfader with curve control and reverse. It has on-board effects that can match the BPM and a nice 3-Band EQ. Check the specs below... I will definitely get one for a full video review as soon as they are available.
