Finally got to play with a DB4. Played b2b with the owner at Casa De Homegrove for almost 6 hours, and barely scratched the surface of what that mixer has to offer. Such a fun toy. Dunno if it can be changed in the settings (given that it’s a digital mixer), but never played with a mixer with that much headroom before. It kept going to the low reds with the gains at 10 a clock. Yet the master and booth outputs were quite low. The master was about as loud at 4 a clock where my PX:5 is at twelve. Yet the rec output was REALLY loud. Dunno if again these are adjustable in the settings.
Overall I think my PX:5 sounds a bit better which surprised me. I guess it’s the analog over digital thing. Yet the DB4 still sounds better than a DJM900 nxs2 IMO. Just my subjective feel.
