To buy or not to buy... That is the question...

So far I would say I would recomend the VMS4, I have had no issues to date with mine, with the exception of the sound through the mic being not crystal clear but I am still working on that.

Recommended. It got me some time to get it work in Traktor Pro, but no issues at all (I don't use the mic inputs).

+1 i love it with traktor pro i recommend it... You have all traktor features in hand with it.

Thanks for the reply, I'm going to pick up one at guitar center today. I'll let you guys know today how I like it.

I wanted to ask some of the users, when you
read reviews and comments, the comments half the time are by people who haven't really touched the device.

you guys like using traktor with the vms4 more? I use serato, so I'm open to vdj or traktor, either way ill be learning new software ha ha

Well, i'm new to traktor but i've use serato itch and ssl before, so there is a big difference... But after a week i really prefer traktor just because of all the features and the effects and the mapping ^^, it's an awesome peace of software.

Many comments and reviews about the vms4 i saw are negative... i don't really know why, but well i prefer to recommend ppl buy it and try to make your own mapping before comment...

Picked mine up. Awesome unit. I've only tried it out with virtual dj so far. I'll be picking up traktor soon hopefully.

I would like to add to this. I would recomend this if the following issues are addressed.

I love this controller and think it is Ideal for my DJ service company. However I did have to return it to the dealer today due to two problems.

1. Distorted mic signal.

I tried a wide range of mics, mic cables, vocal processors and the sound from the mic was distorted with every aplication. I run a karaoke show as well and I need my mics to sound as good as possible.

2. The XLR outputs had only 1/8 the power output of the master RCA and Booth, and for what ever reason, I had more volume to my right chanel than my left.

I would prefer to use the XLR outputs to my amp or active speaker not the RCAs with a XLR adapter.

I had huge hopes for the VMS4 and still think these issues can be fixed but as said above by the OP these are not issues that can be fixed with a update. So back it went.

I would still be interested in re-buying the VMS4 if these issues are addressed in a VMS4 V2
