for the scratchline u can stick any sticker as a line on your jogwheel bro .. why the F u had to get rid of the effects bar ... i know many people dident like it .. becouse they had no imagination ... but man ... this is a huge downgrade ... u cant jump anywhere in the song by 1 touch ... thats a huge dropback from previous versions ... adding dedicated loop buttons ... the loops were simple to use previous versions .. u should have better add a TEMPO RANGE button FFS... why dont u inform what dj-s want ? i mean what numark users want ... its a shame.
I picked up the Platinum FX and love it! I talk to other DJ's and they've been djing for years and still don't have paddle switches and paid 4 times more for many of the platinum standard features.
I just bought the platinum fx today(21/09/2024) so at least 4 years later and glad I did. I'm new to djing and just wanted a decent device for mixing my own music. The price was amazing too at only $449 aud so it looks like they've kept the price down which is great for a beginner like me.
I cannot wait for the Numark Mixtrack Platinum FX...ITS SO AWESOME...But i still wish they have an XLR output that really would put these amazing controllers more insane...
Can anyone help me? I am trying to install the firmware 1:14 for this controller and there was no tutorial or step-by-step process on how to can someone please help thanks much.
I re entered the dj scene with a numark mixtrack Pro mk1 a white one back when the 1st came out 1st controller with touch platters great controller good memories
I'd been a Numark MixTrack Pro fan for years, as I've owned almost every generation - in fact, I still have my MixTrack Pro II and 1st generation MixTrack Platinum (my first MT Pro, unfortunately, I had to get rid of due to one of the cue buttons breaking). I purchased a Mixars Primo recently (see profile pic), which I absolutely love, but I must say I do like how Numark has finally stepped their game up. If I didn't have my Primo already, I would definitely buy the MT Platinum FX!
Great overview Jamie👌 These look great, a fantastic entry level choice. I’d pay the extra $50 also If I was looking to start DJ’ing for the first time👍
I’ve been brand loyal to Numark since I began DJing over 10 years ago these are giving me hope that there’s something in the works to compete with the Pioneer DDJ-1000SRT because I’m really close to jumping ship and switching brands but I’m holding on because I know Numark really cares about being fully Serato compatible and other brands look at it as an afterthought
this was super helpful -- thanks guys! I'm curious, in the past four years since releasing this video, are there any other contenders you would consider that have since been released @crossfader?
Thank you for your review, I have the DDJ 1000. I just ordered the FX Platinum just to have a smaller set up, try Serato and the BPM in the jog wheel. As always you have great videos.
Had mine about a week and love it I feel I get so much more performance features from vdj than serato from loop roll on the pads to sound color fx just need to decide on paying 99 dollars for a license for Vdj just for this controller or to get a serato license
Really good review :) Waiting for the Pro FX vs DDJ400 Can You feel a difference in the feel of Jogs with display on Platinum and the on without on the Pro ?
I have a feeling that Inputs and Outputs are the main features that make a controller more or less expensive. If these controllers could have XLR main out, RCA main out2, booth, and XLR mic then both controllers could be in the 500-700 dollar mark. Everything else is just introduced differently. The FX section is taken off the top and put in the middle which leaves space to make the jog wheels bigger. Pads are thinner, smaller loop section which gives more pitch fader space. Good job by Numark
Why would these controllers have all those extra features, they're both entry level. If you want those features, that's why you'd get an NV, NS6II or NS7.
Awesome and very detailed review! Was looking for an upgrade for the mixtrack platinum. To be able to use 8 hotkeys is great. The FX Series is really looking good!
Hi, Mix track pro has the beep feature where you can edit out words you don't want and still keep the song going, can you get that feature/function on the Platinum Fx? and if yes how?
I've always appreciated Numark's equipment, I have a Mixtrack II, and I'm always updating its mapping so I don't get left behind, as soon as possible, I'll be getting a more current one as possible.
I have the Pro and I can tell you this is a solid controller. I bought it during COVID so supplies were limited. I was lucky enough to grab the last one. I have pulled off some nice mixes with this controller. I do, house, techno, progressive house, funk. I do love this controller, but I'm ready to upgrade to a Pioneer big boy. This controller is definitely a badass entry level controller. I come from the vinyl mixing days. Great review as well! You have a new Sub to your channel! :)
Is the 4 deck one supporting only 2 channels? I guess so. If it were 4 channels, wouldn't it be hard to adjust the knobs and pitch faders when two tracks are layered on the same deck?
Excellent review. Key words: "technology transfer/diffusion with the InMusic ecosystem". This is really good to see a convergence of diff premium qualities being condensed in these entry's. What better Corona-economic meltdown gift can a DJ get than any of these?
Hi Jamie, thank you for your video, the platinum fx looks a serious piece of kit. I appreciate this is powered by usb and not ac, if i may ask you what would stop you from using this at gigs.
Serato DJ Pro enables more professional features such as different views, the ability to record, access to more effects and performance pad modes, plus lots more. It's generally used by DJ's who have outgrown the Lite software in terms of capability.
Thank you dude, I will be buying one of these next week. I brought a pioneer sb3 and I feel so ripped off, there is no cue mix knob so it's hard to mix through my headphones in my apartment at night and the pitch sliders are horrible, so short and sensitive and they sometimes change by themselves! I think the sb3 is suited for people who want to mix hip hop and use sync. Pioneer should be ashamed of themselves.
You know what's funny? The Mixtrack Pro FX recently saw a significant price drop here in Austria and Germany. It's now down to 155€ brand new on Amazon, whereas the Mixtrack Platinum FX still costs 230€. That's a price difference of 75€, and for that, I really don't think the Platinum is worth it. The 2 main reasons imho: 1. The 4-Deck control is nice to have, but merely a gimmick rather than an actual, useful feature. Like you said in the video, due to the fact that Deck 3 and 4 share the channels with 1 and 2, you can get confused and quickly lose track of the situation when actually mixing more than 2 tracks at the same time. 2. Apart from rudimentary options like displaying the BPM or showing the elapsed/remaining time, the small screens on the jogs are just an extremely stripped-down version of the Pioneer DDJ-800/1000 screens. Again, a nice looking gimmick, but definitely not worth the extra 75€. In conclusion: if you're a beginner on a tight budget, there's absolutely no way around the Mixtrack Pro FX since it now offers the best value for money in the entire entry level segment!
The only argument I have for this, is if you are going to do weddings, you may occasionally haveultiple songs during intros. If you can have most of them loaded,life will be much easier lol
Hey how is it going I got a question for you, have u tried this with virtual dj, if so do you need to upgrade your software or virtual dj support this controller as mixtrack pro platinum.
I have the Mixtrack pro fx paired with Serato pro. I don't use the Sample performance pad mode; is there a way I can change or midi map it to become slicer instead? Thank you
Aren't lines on the wheel a bit pointless if the the wheel doesn't spin, like the Rane 12? Also I'm a bit concerned with what you said about the quality of the fader - is it a deal breaker for scratching? How does it compare to ddj 400 etc?
DJ Lite comes free with the controller, DJ Pro is a pay once kind of affair. I had a previous software that came with the very first Pioneer controller, the DDJ-S1. I think it was called Switch? Anyway, at some point they discontinued both it and the original Serato software, and upgraded you free of charge to DJ Pro. I've had it for like 12 years or more and there's no charge once you've got it.
What good is a position marker on a non rotary jogwheel? It serves no purpose for scratching. As soon as you let the record go the marker no longer corresponds to the same position.
Really useful vid. Thinking of upgrading to one of these two from DJ2GO2 TOUCH which I got on a bit of a whim, after being solely vinyl for many years. DJ2GO2 TOUCH is great but no individual EQs or effects etc. Am thinking Mixtrack platinum based on your vid as I'm not fussed about scratching and those extra displays look useful...
So I need help with something. I got the numark mix track pro fix. Everything is working splendidly except for one thing. I have both speakers and headphones connected for monitoring, but the cue buttons used for isolating a track only on headphones, don’t seem to do anything. Having them on or off makes no difference, cause anything playing on the speakers is also playing in the headphones. Anyone have any ideas on what I’m doing wrong?
Compared to DDJ-400 the Platinum FX seems to bring few improvements, but the Serato... That additional 200$ you have to spend on software to get the same functions as in rekordbox, basically doubles its price.
These are NEW controllers in 2020, DDJ400 (at least when I picked up mine) is 2018. These still cannot hold up against a DDJ800, which I think the platinum is trying to do. I do like the size of the jog wheels and IF the PRO is a scratch controller, it would have been nice to have a crossfader curve setting versus two mics
@@niksdaya1284 pioneer ddj400 is what you will want as a beginner IF you want the club style layout, if your NOT looking to be under club layout, get any controller that isnt Pioneer.
can you record DJ sets with Serato DJ lite? I need to know this before I purchase it I started out with the numark NS6 which came with Serato DJ pro which was free but i hear you have to pay for it with the platinum controller or don't you
@@thefullenergychannel2879 Sorry for the necro reply, but in theory it should carry across regardless of the controller - same with VirtualDJ (which I've retired due to not working with my controller), and Mixxx - which I wish had a lot more traction because it's glorious and free :)
so i bought the Pioneer ddj200 last week, because it used Spotify and iphone/ipad. Now Spotify no longer works. So, my controller is going back to the store. Btw to these decks work with New chromebooks and or ipad? Thank you:) awesome video
you mean fader cuts? You press the button just once, and your top four performance pads do different fader cuts. You have to manually move the platter with your other hand while holding down a performance pad. 17:05
I have mixtrack platinat and i want upgrade With fx next controller,It Washington great if this New controller mixtrack fx have MARGE FX like Pioneer flx 6
It's useful when first learning with samples, setting the hot cue will place the virtual needle to 12'o clock. Setting the jogwheel to 12 and then pressing the hot cue will keep the platter in the same position as the virtual needle, allowing beginners to grasp basic timing and movement. You're right though, on a playing track it's not helpful.
Ah I see what you mean. But still I feel like it isn't such a big "feature" to begin with becaus of this reason. But then again we're talking about a 200 dollar controller, where more is more. 😅
Hi Jamie, I think and your team do a great job, and very informed, do you think there will be a 4 channel coming out,? I think I would get one if there was, and maybe I'll wait a little longer
yes you would need either an amplifier to passive speakers, or just have active speakers. Audio does not play out of laptop. This is a general question for all controllers, not just this one specifically. I myself mix with just headphones. When I want to mix without headphones, I have it hooked up to computer speakers. But for me specifically, I don't intend to "rock parties"
the visual marker explanation is incorrect... the visual marker is better shown on the platinum through the jog wheel display. the mixtrack does not have moving platters and the marker will lose its cue point once you have released the platter

i was waiting for this like a messiah ... but i rather keep using my mixtrack platinum.
whether the goods are sold???
What's the best class to get from you guys if using this controller?
hi crossfader i buy a mixtrack platinium fx it work perfectly with virtual dj but not serato lite or pro can even detect it please can you help me
I'm seriously impressed with these. I thought they would be in the $500+ range before you showed the price
As are we! Amazing level of features for the price!
Kind of unbelievable the Platinum is only $249!
Actually glad there is a company letting there customers try features you would find on some pro gear for alot less.
You're forced to pay a subscription to use half of the fuckin buttons. It's a trap for a subscription for serato pro.
I have the previous version of this controller and I love it, as just a hobbyist, it’s perfect, and I’m very tempted to upgrade
your videos are the examples why youtube is worthy to exist, so great tutoring. cheers
Thank you for actually showing what extra features are available in Serato DJ Pro, most other reviews haven't shown this.
I picked up the Platinum FX and love it! I talk to other DJ's and they've been djing for years and still don't have paddle switches and paid 4 times more for many of the platinum standard features.

I wasn’t sure which one to go for, but after watching this I definitely want the Platinum, many thanks for putting this together. 👍🏻💂♂️🇬🇧
love the differentiation between scratch & mixing DJs
I've been wondering when Numark will give us something new ! And finally !
I learned on a mixtrack platinum 2yrs ago. It's a nice entry level controller.
I cannot wait for the Numark Mixtrack Platinum FX...ITS SO AWESOME...But i still wish they have an XLR output that really would put these amazing controllers more insane...
I just bought an fx pro platinum and I love it so much!!
i've always dreamed about the youtuber that forgets to edit the timestamp in.... today is the day 0:57
It is pretty funny, like a sitcom with the laugh track removed.
I love that you made the effort to post the timestamp of where he missed the timestamp, but not the one he missed.
The entry level controllers are getting better and better. I'm pretty inpressed with these units.

didn't know Numark is part of a larger umbrella that also owns Dennon, Rane and Akai. Really cool how they cross-utilize manufacturing and parts

I've always appreciated Numark's equipment, I have a Mixtrack II, and I'm always updating its mapping so I don't get left behind, as soon as possible, I'll be getting a more current one as possible.
I really liked Mixtrack Pro FX, I hope I can be buying one at this level or higher, but it's from Numark.

Hi Jamie, thank you for your video, the platinum fx looks a serious piece of kit. I appreciate this is powered by usb and not ac, if i may ask you what would stop you from using this at gigs.

Need Guidence, It is a great video but I want to know How to use beat fx like pioneer in numark?

The only argument I have for this, is if you are going to do weddings, you may occasionally haveultiple songs during intros. If you can have most of them loaded,life will be much easier lol
Damn, jetzt sind es 230 € vs 260 €
Hey how is it going I got a question for you, have u tried this with virtual dj, if so do you need to upgrade your software or virtual dj support this controller as mixtrack pro platinum.
As of June 11, 2020, both of these are natively mapped to Virtual DJ
Thank you very much for sharing clear explanation
I have the Mixtrack pro fx paired with Serato pro. I don't use the Sample performance pad mode; is there a way I can change or midi map it to become slicer instead? Thank you
Can you record your sets with Serato DJ lite' or is that option only available with the pro version??
I'd love to see a 4ch stand alone version of the NS7 II.
Numark is the mixer to have during the 90s, It"s good that they are improving their Dj controller and very competitive.
My first CD player was a Numark CD Mix. LOL!
Aren't lines on the wheel a bit pointless if the the wheel doesn't spin, like the Rane 12?
Also I'm a bit concerned with what you said about the quality of the fader - is it a deal breaker for scratching? How does it compare to ddj 400 etc?
Was just about to say. Rather pointless and confusing. Lol
As a new DJ I'd like to ask if Serato DJ light and Serato DJ Pro are paid once or with a monthly subscription? Thank you!
DJ Lite comes free with the controller, DJ Pro is a pay once kind of affair. I had a previous software that came with the very first Pioneer controller, the DDJ-S1. I think it was called Switch? Anyway, at some point they discontinued both it and the original Serato software, and upgraded you free of charge to DJ Pro. I've had it for like 12 years or more and there's no charge once you've got it.
which one would be better for a more advanced DJ who cant afford cdjs but is used to them and turntables?
What good is a position marker on a non rotary jogwheel? It serves no purpose for scratching. As soon as you let the record go the marker no longer corresponds to the same position.
Really useful vid. Thinking of upgrading to one of these two from DJ2GO2 TOUCH which I got on a bit of a whim, after being solely vinyl for many years.

Is the jog wheel on the pro FX lighter than the jog wheel on the platinum FX? I own the platinum, and the jog wheel is quite heavy for scratching.
Please compare platinum fx vs Roland 202 , which better for being dj

I literally got a crossfader ad on this vid 😂
Haha at least we know they are working :-)
We. Are. Cross fader.
Already ordered mine
Great review. One question, Do these units require a specific version of Windows? For instance, will this work on Windows 8.1?
Thk u jammie. Your information really useful for me.. How if i gonna buy it now ?
so i bought the Pioneer ddj200 last week, because it used Spotify and iphone/ipad. Now Spotify no longer works. So, my controller is going back to the store. Btw to these decks work with New chromebooks and or ipad? Thank you:) awesome video
Thank you for the video.
Do you know if these controllers work with Virtual Dj now?
I can't get the fx into scratch mode. When I press shift and scratch it does nothing. Help?
you mean fader cuts? You press the button just once, and your top four performance pads do different fader cuts. You have to manually move the platter with your other hand while holding down a performance pad. 17:05
Getting this as a secondary controller because my Pioneer DDJ acts weird when i scratch, they look very promising for the cheap price
I have mixtrack platinat and i want upgrade With fx next controller,It Washington great if this New controller mixtrack fx have MARGE FX like Pioneer flx 6
Good job😊appreciate it
Just got my second one. The first one would not connect with my computer. Second came in same problem
Thank you for that informative video
Hey can you use multiple fx simultaneously ?
Do you think that there could be a new Numark NS6II as a Platinum FX?
Can you use the Pro in DJ Virtual program?
Does it have the grind FX effect on the first controller ??
I bought the DJ2GO2 touch and it had a hardware based fault. Had to return it. Hopefully one of these doesn't crash.
It's not working on searto dj how can I get it to work
I don't quite get how the line should help scratch djs? I mean the platters would need to be motorized for the line to be of any use.
It's useful when first learning with samples, setting the hot cue will place the virtual needle to 12'o clock. Setting the jogwheel to 12 and then pressing the hot cue will keep the platter in the same position as the virtual needle, allowing beginners to grasp basic timing and movement. You're right though, on a playing track it's not helpful.
Ah I see what you mean. But still I feel like it isn't such a big "feature" to begin with becaus of this reason. But then again we're talking about a 200 dollar controller, where more is more. 😅
Hi Jamie, I think and your team do a great job, and very informed, do you think there will be a 4 channel coming out,? I think I would get one if there was, and maybe I'll wait a little longer
Did you mentioned the output options?
Both use a line level RCA output
The pro is the better improved version of the fx? Thanks
I am very happy I made the right choice 😎💪💪💪
Do I need a separate amplifier for either of these controllers or can I just plug speakers in? Also does the audio play out of the laptop/pc speakers?
yes you would need either an amplifier to passive speakers, or just have active speakers. Audio does not play out of laptop. This is a general question for all controllers, not just this one specifically. I myself mix with just headphones. When I want to mix without headphones, I have it hooked up to computer speakers. But for me specifically, I don't intend to "rock parties"
q4short thanks for the info 👍
Can I use my iPad with this controller?
the visual marker explanation is incorrect... the visual marker is better shown on the platinum through the jog wheel display. the mixtrack does not have moving platters and the marker will lose its cue point once you have released the platter
