i forgot to mention the VCI - does not have a kill on the eq's (if thats important to you) - faders are good, cross fader smooth and quick, tempo faders have decent amount of tension - knobs are a good size, easy to use, grips on the side - vestax has two easy switches to flick between all 4 decks (on traktor) cant say much about the Numark cause i have not used it
