I used the MIXON 4 exclusively for my biggest gigs to date and its a powerhouse. The MIXON 8 has everyhting I wish the MIXON 4 had and more. I have no doubt this controller will shine in its own right. When the MIXON 4 came out people still seemed so hesitant to dj with Algoriddim and with ipads. The MIXON 4 and Algoriddim blazed the trail for the MIXON 8 and now the dj community has this to play with and I couldnt be more excited to see what happens.

Only thing I personally don't like is having the iPad so low - I have always liked my screen elevated so I don't have to squint to see it. Of course, just as with a laptop, it's perfectly possible to use a stand.

MIXON 4 was solid. I can’t wait for this one! 🔥🔥🔥

I cant wait to get mine!! Thanks for the review.

Learning on the Numark MixTrack Pro FX means I prefer the layout of the Rane Four, and could keep the MixTrack as a backup/compact without getting confused each time I switch. But I'm impressed at the compact dimensions and price of this Reloop, given all the features on offer. I wish they'd do a miniature Rane Four with 6" jogs... I guess everyone wants something different!
