Each smooth, fast, reliable, slot-loading drive works with both CDs and MP3 CDs. You can also connect a USB flash drive on each deck for access to thousands of MP3s without taking a computer or CDs to the gig.  If all that wasn't enough, Numark's Mix-Deck also has an built-in universal dock for iPod, so you can play tracks from your iPod and even record your set! A dedicated iPod fader and transport/menu controls allow to control you iPod, meaning you won?t have to touch it once it?s docked.

As well as being a standalone DJ system, the Mix Deck also works as a software controller. Just connect the unit to your Mac or PC via a USB cable and you can control the music on your computer. The Mixdeck?s MIDI communication enables you to easily map virtually any DJ software for direct connection from your fingers to software.  The USB connection can also receive two stereo audio channels from your computer, enabling you to mix software audio with CD tracks. 

The Mixdeck has a full-featured mixer built in. Each input channel has its own gain and three-band EQ/rotary kills (+12dB/ -INF) allowing you to control the onboard and external music sources. There are two sets of stereo, switchable phono/line inputs for external sources such as turntables. A replacable crossfader with switchable slope, reverse and fader start facility, allows you to customise its performance based on your preferences. The mixer section also featuresa  1/4-inch mic input with its own gain and ±15dB high and low EQ. There?s also a complete cueing section with dual 1/8 and 1/4-inch headphone outputs, dedicated cue gain, and mini-crossfader control. You can keep an eye on your master output levels with the Mixdeck's dual-color stereo LED meters. Output can be via balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA stereo main outputs, as well as Booth and Record outs for sending your mix to different locations and systems.

To add flavour and variety to your performance, the Numark Mixdeck feature a host of beat-synced DSP effects that include chop, echo, filter, flanger, pan, and phaser.
