Setting up my brother with another rig and he is used to controllers. What do you think is better, Numark Omni or Hercules RMX - they are similar price here. Is there anything else in this price range with a sound card builtin that I should be considering?

You may want to take a look at this. This is an upgrade to the RMX. Since ver 7 is capable of 4 plus decks, you might as well have a controller that can utilize them.

The Numark MixTrack Pro is a great little controller. Very repsonsive and only $250.

uuuuuhhhhhh how do i say this ??
AMaHM is right and wrong; the confusion could be due to a recent lapdance......
the mx 4 is an upgrade and out of the box is good to go w/ 4 decks
what's wrong is it implies that the RMX can't do 4 decks .... it can
i use it with the default 4 deck skin (by Norway)
you can map the source button to toggle decks A/C B/D
with the mx 4 it's already set up ........
also i'm not sure but i believe the jogwheels are bigger
my opinion is that the RMX is better than the Omni , one reason being the 6 assignable buttons
i use them to toggle the mixer pannel, video pannel , browser tab, sampler tab , fx tab , leaving one unused
the one unused button i would like to invoke the "load on deck (1,2,3,4)" if that is possible, haven't done it yet

I can testify the RMX is a good piece of kit. If you get this controller though be sure you get a road case if you plan on taking it gigging. I started with a hercules RMX @ housparties, bought some cheap turntables and started mixing. The cool thing about rmx is it has a soundcard so you can connect your CD decks or TT's right to it. For a very portible and inexpensive rig in my opinion this is a good choice. I would also consider the VMS4

Thanks all for your help. Did decide on a rmx (mostly because it has inputs) but when I hit the buynow they said it could be two weeks. So decided to use the mixtrack I already had and just about to pick up a cheap maya44 to get him going. Then I will get an mx-4 when they are released - this sounds like a nice piece of kit.
