The VMC-004 is a perfect mixer for any DJ who needs a 4-channel tabletop mixer. This is Vestax’ first 4-channel entry-level mixer with high-end features that is not a 19” rackmount design. Coming in just under 13” wide and six rack spaces tall, this mixer is packed with features that will help you be more creative in your mix regardless of your DJ style or musical preferences.“Mix” In The Headphones

The VMC-004 includes 3-band isolators per channel that offer 100% infinity cut and +4dB of boost. Each channel on the VMC-004 also has a 5-segment LED meter. This allows you to adjust each channel to match the level of the channel that is being heard through the master outputs, allowing you to transfer from one channel to another; hearing a change in music and not a change in volume. This is a very important feature especially if you plan on making mixed tapes or CDs. The crossfader gives you two curve settings: a sharp slope and a normal slope. When the switch is in the left position, the cross ader will have a long curve fading in and out smoothly. This is excellent for house and techno. If the switch is in the right position, the fader will have a sharp curve allowing for quick punch-ins. This is ideal for hip-hop, drum-n-bass and break-beat. The VMC-004 offers a cue select for any of the four channels plus, a cue/master mix pot which allows you to “mix” in the headphones by selecting any of the channels and fading in a little or a lot of the master output. This is one of the most advanced monitoring systems available.

“Must-Have” Features For Serious DJs

In addition to that, all EQ changes and movements made on the channels can be heard in the headphones. This is a “must-have” feature for any serious DJ. The output section features two separate master outputs. Both outputs are stereo RCA and are located next to the power switch. Master 1 has a L/R balance knob and Master 2 can be found beneath the balance knob. The second master output can be used as a booth/monitor output or as a recording output for an external recording device such as a computer, CD recorder or cassette deck.
