BPM 2014: Numark NDX-500

Numark is on a roll at this year's BPM show in the UK with the release of a few new products. The product that seems to be making the most noise is the new NDX-500 Multi-media player and DJ controller. The NDX-500 is like an update to the other NDX models as it can playback music from USB drives, CD's, or even work as a USB MIDI controller with native Serato DJ support.
