Even though it is, roughly 4 years old. This controller looks and feels extremely solid!! (Tried it out at my local guitar center). Your review had me sold as well! My NS6 comes tomorrow

Very informative my dude just got mine yesterday. Gearing up for New Years. Lets GO! Deep House all night long

cheers mate ordered one the other day after seeing your review

Great tutorial, very impormative. I just got one for my son because he likes FX. I'm an old school Dj and i agreed that Numark should come up with spinning jog/platter for the NS6, but i have my set of 1200s anywayz.Thanks for the video!

Great review my brother

Excellent review

The best review by far, thank you very much.

ok cool i got some breaks I'll try using those. great reviews by the way it is realy helping me decide what I'm going to upgrade to

the best review ever ! Congrats!

He's right people...Jog wheels and cue buttons are VERY accurate. Got mine this pass weekend. Confident I made the right choice for my style of mixing and budget, despite the fact that this unit made it's debut 3 or 4 years ago. Originally used Traktor (which I love) but I now use ITCH for this unit. I like ITCH paired with this unit a lot. Thanx for influencing my decision.

I agree. The NS6 is still a good unit to get your paws on. Pro sound quality, Pro volume level, Pro outputs/inputs, Pro Jog wheels, encased in a suit of armour! Still worth it 2016!!

I thought that was the case but just needed to make sure. Thanks man.

The mostt indepth review I've ever seen by anyone....nice product just might get. It based on ur indepth overview

Super GREAT & NICE!! Video Making Me Wanna Buy one!!

thanks for the prompt response!! cheers man will look into it

NS6 all day everyday DJ Nor_Way S/O thanks blaze!!!

Great review

see dude, that's how useful this video is... i just went back and checked the vid and there it is, you covered it, cross fader control on the front panel. thx again. i'm pretty much convinced this is going to be the best bang. i have read and reviewed enough. it all circles back to this ns6. i just noticed this vid is over a year old. you still like it or have you upgraded? any complaints yet?

Thanks for the quick response...SALUDOS.

haha sorry i got questions and you're the only dude on youtube with answers. lol @17:08 is it a double phaser because the other decks are paused or not running? is that 2 FX faders on one deck? sounds badass

thanks for the speedy reply:D that helped out a lot

I went out and purchased one a lil while ago. Hope it works wells.

great video

Hey DjBlaze, thank you for your prompt reply.after taking your below advice into consideration,I viewed all infos and videos about the Numark 4trak, including you video of the unboxing :) , and apparently it's a very good machine (if only it was black).Knowing all the info I previously stated u think it's the best digital machine I can get?better then Pioneer DDj-T1,S4?

Your video really helped me out a lot thanks on VDJ on the beat grid you can set it to so you can do Doubles can you do that with this.

@RealDJblaze Found out wut the maddness was today.. Sync button was the issue.. to resolve the issue I just deleted the sync's. Didn't know u could delete those. Never really got a chance to hit up Numark. But all is good!!!! (Moe from Brooklyn)

@RealDJblaze Thanks! This helped out a lot. :)

Great Review! In your opinion which would you prefer for scratching NS6 or NS7? I tried the jog wheels and wasn't impressed. However it was on the Mixtrack Pro using Cue 7.

Aw ok bro Thx. BTW Very good review

Blaze this is an excellent review. Thanks. I am considering this unit in addition to my ns7. The ns6 would simply be easier to transport. But I was wondering if I would be able to hook my ns7 into the ns6 for jam session purposes. I am thinking I could use the 2 decks on the ns6 and another dj use the decks on the ns7 for freestyle mix recording purposes. Is that possible?

Thanks for the video!!!!

Wussup Kareem, At the 5:29 makrk of this video you stated that there were curve adjustments built in the serato software for the channel/line faders. Is there any way that I could disable the curve adjustment for the channel/line faders that are built in the serato software?

@RealDJblaze thanks a lot man! imma most likely go with the Denon since it is the cheaper option anyway now i just gotta worry about getting speakers. Im lookin to get a pair of JBL EON305's... do you know if i need an amplifier for those??

Awesome, Thanks man

I WANT ONE!!

@RealDJblaze yeah man i can't figure out which controller to get but if you had to decide between the Denon MC6000,, the S4 or the NS6 which would you personally take? To be honest im starting to lean towards the S4. i just need something to perform well for my summer gigs...

I want to know if on the Serato Itch software, do you ALWAYS see 4 tracks available or can you choose to see ONLY 2, so that way I could see more of my music library? I really don't need 4 deck controls, but I like the size of the platters and the price compared to the Pioneer DDJ-S1. The view mode is a real deciding factor for me, looking a two empty tracks is really going to annoy me quickly if I would rarely use them.

@ kareem julien .. I have my vci 300 in the shop due too short in cross fader. as you stated .the faders on this unit is more tuff..correct? and idk if you ever used the vci 300 but far as platters..this unit response better or the same? thanks again

Based on what you were saying about the line faders on the nS6 it seem it will operate the same way as the NS7 line faders. Just dont know what to do. I might try the NS6 and see if it is different but like I said based on the 5:29 mark in your video it seems as if the NS6 will be the same way. I just want the line faders to work normally without the curve. And I cant keep them set a 1 position because all the songs are not the same volume. Any suggestions.

Hi Dj Blaze, thank you for your valuable inputs. Am a new comer and after extensive research I found that Numark Ns6 is the best option for me (am a house lover and to start learning digital is easier) however I really need your help on what is best as a software for a house\techno mixing, serato or tracktor? Txx

hey so did you lose the loop when you hit that button again @15:28 after chopping it down? i saw the light disappear... how do you get back to the track once you store a loop? it looked like you started and finished a loop and it kept playing the loop til you exited

As far as 2 channel mixing goes, in a heads up battle, which is the better controller in your opinion, the DDJ-S1 or the NS6? I like the 4 deck control capability (even though I might not mix 4 channels right away but eventually after purchasing) and construction material of the NS6 compared to the mostly plastic construction of the DDJ-S1.

@RealDJblaze yeah im prob gonna go with the Powered JBL's to save me the hassle...With the Denon DN-6000 i want to hook up a Numark V7 turntable to it so i can use Serato with the Denon MC-6000...good Move? or should i just stick with the Traktor Software?

Thx bro. I just checked it out. That's go be a monster. Do you know a release date and price yet?

Hi Melvin, Watched a lot of your vids before making a purchase. Ordered NS6 yesterday, I have always been a Pioneer and Denon user when I was a club D.J. back in the day, but I recently was talked into coming out of retirement a lil bit and wanted to Use a PC for the first time when mixing. While I am waiting to get the NS6 I was wondering can you tell me if the effects can be applied to the Mic like some of the Pioneer mixers do? Thanks for the vids helped make a pricey decision.

wild300zx Honestly, I'm not sure... sorry man.

Thanks for the tip @realdjblaze

Personal opinion, I'm looking into either the NS6 or the 4Trak for my next mixer, iv watched both your reviews. Which software do you find had the most options for on the fly remixes, Tractor Pro 2 or Serato Itch. thats the game changer for me. Thanks

Quick question, if I wanted to use a denon 3700 with this and have it work with itch would I be able to use any sound card or does it have to be an sl2? Thanks in advance

Really want to get in to DJ'ing and I want a DJ Controller but not sure which one is best to start out on? My mate has the mixtrack pro and I'd like something similar and also around the same price but not the same controller? Could you help?

I just got the NS6 and happy with it ! only thing i'm worried about is that the mixer is digital when used with serato or vdj. did you notice a big difference when compared to standard club analog mixers? cheers :-)

Thanks for the response! I went out and tried an s4, and the jog wheels were pretty bad and the unit just didnt look and feel as professional. Not to mention traktor isnt for everyone...I'll give numark another chance to get things right

Hey DJ Blaze, im getting a new contoller and im choosing between the ns6 or the ns7fx, the ns7 is 300 more but im wondering is it worth it? or should i just stick with the ns6? i know it has the fx bar and motorized wheels, and i really like that. But do you think the ns6 is going to be satisfying? What do you think? thanks.

I have a serious question can this mix deck be used with an iPad instead of a cup utter with the algoriddim software

how do you feel about the cross fader being so close to the platter ? this thing is tiny i love it still tho but man my hands are cramping from using new muscles

You can use any laptop with the NS6 or 4Trak that meets the minimum specs. Go to the Numark Website to see what you need. You don't have to use it with a laptop though as they both work as standalone mixers.

I think I am going to go out today and get the NS6. Did you have any issues like that with the NS6 when you demoD it?

@RealDJblaze Tanke you!

@RealDJblaze thanks for the reply and true, well i just want a control to do mixes on and I am not bothered about traktor or serato (i am a begginer currently using virtual DJ) i like just the look of the ns6 but the effects on the s4 pluss the samples decks makes me wnat the s4!

DJ Blaze, with your testing of the ns6, did you ever have your jog wheel stop responding to your touch? If you look at my channel, I have a video of this problem. Ive already sent it to numark to get fixed once, and now they want me to send it back again. If you could get ANY midi controller instead of the ns6, what would you choose?

Would you recommend the NS6 for an amateur DJ like me playing Graduation and sweet 16 gigs? because i was thinking about getting either the NS6 or a Traktor S4. But idk which one is more mobile DJ friendly...

@RealDJblaze but if you have the chance to buy a numark ns6 or a traktor kontrol s4 which and why wold you buy it?

Hey.... I'm looking to buy my first digital controller and oscillating between the Traktor s4 and NS6.....My main concerns are durability and good sound output... What would you suggest?? Also, how is the NS6's mapping with traktor?? P.s. Your reviews are brilliant!!! :-)

what do you think is a better controller the S4 or the NS6????? and also i have a ns7 but the needle drop is slow i think probably because of the motorized decks

I'm just getting started so this might be dumb but what audio do you use to scratch? is it the same song or did you find a record playing audio of some kind?

Would i be able to plug this controler into a mixer because i sometimes have singers who perform for me at gigs and they use wireless mics so i would need to operate the mixer or would it be possible to use the wireless mics through the controller?

Also which deck would work better with Cue 7/VDJ7 for video mixing? Ns7 or Ns6? Or should I just stick with Itch? / NO Video. Thanks Again!

I have a macbook with the right specs but the contoller froze on me have you ever had this? and if so what did you do to prevent it from happening again. Happened at one of my gig was pretty crappy. Thanks

Can u please make a video on how you setup your NS6 to the speakers? And can u use Logitech speakers?

Hey Dj Blaze, the left side of my mixer isnt as briqht as the one on the right. Does that mean theres something wrong with it??

Question: Is the built-in soundcard a high enough quality for plug-n-play or would I need to buy a new one?

@RealDJblaze but why? except for the things you just explained is it better quality does it comes whit a software.... and is the traktor s4 any bad choice and the numark to

Hey Dj Blaze would you recommend getting this rather then the Numark Ns7? Which has more FX?

do you need a laptop/computer to the ns6 mixer from numark or even the 4trak?

can i play the sound threw my desktop speakers or do i have to buy seperate speakers???

silly question: can you synch Serato Live with this controller or only ITCH?

thanks man

I have one of your boards you got two of em

I went to set up clicked the library tab and clicked the show all files option selected a folder with files which wasn't scanned added it in the box on the left for it to be scanned but the folder was still empty nothing was there to be scanned

What would you prefer between Numark NS6 and Pioneer's DDJ Wego for a beginner?

@RealDJblaze why that was a fast reply haha oh and how much did all this cost you?

could you maybe do a video with it standing alone? i really want to get this mixer, but the screen where the bpm, song name, length etc should be doesnt seem big n\or does there even seem like there is one ! haha, so i mnot sure how it would work but i really wanna get it in the next couple of weeks

hey man how can i set this up as a stand alone mixer with my Iphone or Ipod?? i can't figure out how

So what would you personally recommend to a beginner? The NS6 with Itch 2.0 or the S4 with ProS4?

i was debating on the NS6 or the traktor S4 any advice would be greatly appreciated.

i Bought this controller but I am having a problem with the pitch faders. I am controlling the pitch fader on the left and the right pitch fader is also adjusting at the same time. Is this a setting? what is goin on? Really frustrating SOMEONE HELP PLEASE

Thank you :)

does the numark ns6 work with Native Instruments Traktor Pro 2 program?

It's a tough call but I bought the DDJ SX and could still return it and wait for the NS7 2 cause I have the mixdeck but who knows how long it will ACTUALLY be. No one knows anything about the drop date and I guess I'm just going to master the DDJ SX and by that time something newer will be out? Guess I'm just looking for your thoughts... Thanks

Is there any effect buttons/knobs/etc for the NS6?

So this is better then the Ddj-s1 right? because i really need help choosing between that and the Ns6 :0

@RealDJblaze so i can connect my ipod touch? or another pc

I have a question does this hook up to computers and is this better then the s1

would you recommend the ns6 or ddj s1, and lets not use preference?

strange it doesn't read anything when i add the cd files in the crate list for scanning the crate remains empty

Do you know if the NS6 is compatible with windows 8?

I was thinking about buying one of these but can I use these with just headphones, beginner here, I don't really want to bother my neighbors since i live in an apartment

@djblaze..pioneer ddj-s1 or the ns6??

I just got one 2days ago - how does the beat grid work. please respond

See right now I have the NS& and I am having a problem with the Line faders. It seem as if the line faders are on a curve also. Even if I turn the line faders up to half way (50% position) I still dont hear the music well. The sound does not really come in until about the 75% position. And the gain works the same way as well (as if it is on a curve. And I think this is the way the NS7 is made because I have tried three different NS7s and all are like that.

@RealDJblazeWill it work with the s2 version of traktor (traktor pro 2?)

i got the Denon mc 6000 and a mixtrack pro and i will tell you that the mixtrack pro is SOOO sic with the new dj intro sortware! my mc 6000 is stone cold bad but i will tell you that the mixtrack with the fat platters kills the mc6000 period. I like to scratch and the mixtrack holds it down. I can only imagine that the ns6 is only better.
