this is amazing....i remember as a 20 year old i wanted to save up for 2 technics mk2 a mixer , amlifiers , speakers ,headphones and so much records .... how times have changed
I just picked up one at Walmart (of all places) and found to be a great entry-level controller as it will do all tasks DJs need to do at minimum. My only gripe, if it could be called that, is that Numark missed an opportunity with the lights and didn't add a metronome option to help us n00bs with beatmatching similar to to what the Hercules Starlight has. Now, if that option is already there in Serato or DJay, I'd love to know where it is.
I should have taken these more seriously. Now that I have full turntables and everything, here I am looking for something easy to move around with all the essentials. This whole thing with my iPad and iPhone is just amazing!
These are such great little controllers I learnt on this .... My set up has messed up recently so I just bought this as a temp controller .... I rate these and Great as a spare or to use as independent lights once you move up the DJ equipment scale ... nice to see the upgrade to the jogs and the addition of the filter
Screw that and all other controllers where it CAN run on a smartphone but iOS takes the monopoly again. That's just truly wrong to be honest. There even the so called best DAW in the world but only by and got apple though. That's excluding a part of future DJs. Outright ridiculous Make the product appeal to all or finish it completely better yet. Before you bring it on the market big fat whoop and it's a no for me also get the regular mk2 as if you're paying that surplus for 2 speakers of 10to20 watts then you have no idea what a woofer is truly worth I think 😅😂
I have the original party mix, my first ever controller. I thought it would be a fun way to entertain myself, if learnt how to DJ at 45 hahaha. And it is a fantastic little device., I love it. Party Mix 2 definitely looks like a good upgrade.
I'm 45 and just really Learning how to play the piano properly. It's never too late to endulge your passions bro. It maybe some kind of mid life crisis but I've acquired like 12 synths, hammond organs and drum machines. And now I'm looking up a video about mixers lol Stay curious, dont lose passion and practice, practice, practice. Hobbies keeps us sane... Peace
I literally JUST bought the Numark Party Mix2 today….affer seeing THIS video and the Demo from Mr. Sonny James on the Serato channel this past weekend. I was looking for a portable solution and practice device as an alternative to my Workhorse DDJ-REV1 and my beloved 🤩 RANE ONE. The light show jawn was a bit gimmicky for me but after seeing how it’s defeated and actually OUT THE BOX 📦 the default is OFF! 🔥🔥🔥💯👌🏾 I’m guessing there might be a time when I’m just messing around etc and want to use them!? 🤷🏽♂️ But I’ve got lighting already. LOL 😂 THANK YOU Once again for your incredible content. Blessings from The USA 🇺🇸
Hey, thanks so much for your positive comment! I'm so happy that you found the video helpful. We can't say it enough, the Party Mix is such a great controller, people think it's a toy just because of the lights!
Just watching this video on my way to the local dealer. Just a first controller to start DJing for me. Glad that i was looking for gold and found platinum 😄
Hi, looking for help regarding using this controller with my ipad on dj algoriddim Pro. I get no sound through my headphones as all. The headphone button on the dj controller boosts the sound through the main speaker with nothing coming through my headphones at all. If I use serato dj lite on my laptop the controller works fine. However, I would prefer to use dj algoriddim Pro as the software is much better. What am I not selecting on the settings? 😭
Great video! Very informative! I have got one of the Numark Party Mix 2 controllers myself, and it works really well. I would definately recommend to beginners.
Hi djkit - great video! I am beginner considering buying the Numark DJ2. Can you also advise/show how to connect and use this with a macbook as your video only shows it with an iPhone ?
I bought the usb lightning camera connector , but the controler only light up for a second and then it turn off. Do i need special connector with bigger volts?
Soy nuevo en aprender sobre ser Dj,me acabo de comprar una Numark Party Mix 2 y la persona que me la vendió la tenia configurada a Virtual Dj,al llegar a mi casa y conectarme a mi laptop con la Numark no puedo utilizarla para nada,en el mapeo me aparece Numark Party Mix Mkll (custom mapping) y me encantaria que alguien pudiera ayudarme con lo del mappeo aunque sea el de fabrica para poder utilizarla y practicar 🥹🙏
do you have a video on how to get and use virtual dj ? i have the party mix 2,tried to connect the LE version of virtual dj ,but it just not happening !
My controller lights up initially, and then nothing. Should it just register that it's connected on the phone? Cant seen to find its connected in divice setting on the djay app either. Had it since Christmas and literally can not fathom it.
@@djkitsame issue here, looked everywhere online for a solution but can’t find any, i think my adapter doesn’t have enough power as the lights appear for only a number of seconds. maybe i should try a new adapter?? please help
@@ronnyroberts6525If it's an iPhone, it needs to be the genuine Apple adaptor, we've tested the copies and they don't work. If not, let us know your setup and maybe we can suggest something .
@@djkit thanks for the response! is there any chance you can send me a link to get one, don’t wanna waste my money on anything that’s not going to work.
When I connect the camera adapter and controller, the light shines for a moment, but then the light goes out and becomes unusable. I could use it on my computer, so why?
I agree with your comment regarding the lights. I think Numark could have omitted that feature and used the funds towards more effects/filters etc. Regardless, this is neat and I'm looking into purchasing one. Thanks for your review!
Just ordered mine for 70 EUR brand new . Already have DJ Serato Pro software. The only thing witch bothers me - there is no MIDS knob in EQ. Can you mix normally without it only with HI and LOW?
Is there any information when the controller is not connecting and how to solve this problem. When I connect the usb cable, 2 things happen: the light of the controller twinkles, then I hear a sound, but the view It doesn't change to the 2 decks that I would normally see when I connect my sb3.
exactly the same issues I am experiencing too ... after plugin in the controller into usb either it wount found the device or when it is finally found and working it dissapeers from the usb it simply locks off ...
@@juliusmartis6154 yeah I figure it now Yesterday, even I was able to use vyrtualDj software as a app too Also serato Worked but I am more used to vyrtualDj so will use IT. Happy djing 😉
Hello Rad peoples, please help!! I just got this for a gift, for someone very special to me, is there an adapter or connection peace I have to buy for this to work on an iPhone 12? I wanna make sure they have everything they need to start messing around on Christmas. XOXo Oakley.
Thanks for this solid review. I just picked one up for casual use, however I can't see why this unit isn't perfectly capable for professionals as well. I told my long-time DJ friend, who's been a professional for a couple of decades at this point, that I picked one up and as expected he completely trashed it calling it a toy. Now granted it's entry-level gear, but considering I started playing before him back in the day, and was part of his inspiration apparently, I look forward to schooling him on my little toy. 😆 Edit: As a small side note, you can pick up a mini bluetooth tx with 3.5mm connectivity for wireless headphones use. As long as it incorporates aptX tech, latency should be of no concern, however I have yet to try it (soon).
I need help, I bought it and virtual dj 2021 infinity pro doesn't read it, it doesn't recognize it, but virtual dj 2023 does. I would like to know why it doesn't appear in 2021. From Argentina 😊
well I got myself this dj gadget too few days ago but installed it on window11 and the usb constantly not able to find it .... during playing music too ..... need help people thanks in forward
Hello. I bought this product by watching its videos and provided all the necessary equipment. Is the djay device görmüyor.ve only the lights are flashing.what is the reason for this?
@@oktayyurtsever1350 I'm not sure I understand the issue. But if you're connecting to DJay and it's not controlling it, you need to make sure you've paid for full version of the app. Also make sure you have the correct connection cable or adaptor.
@@djkit I have the full version of the application. But when I plug in the cable, the lights are flashing.In your description, you say that the product will be visible in the program, but I do not have such an option, only the speaker option.I will return the patch cable I bought and buy a different cable. What brand do you use?Thank you for kindly support
@@djkit I bought different product, only the lights of the device flash.When I plug the device into the phone, it says speaker in the main output section.Really disappointing and unnecessary additional cost.
Having trouble loading song on the 2nd deck. Deck 1 works fine But when I try to get song on the deck 2 it won’t load ? It just shows a loading sign around the album cover . Numark Party mix live
This was the most helpful video of all of them! Thank you! I couldn’t seem to figure out why it wouldn’t turn on when connected to my phone, until you mentioned it needs the charger in too because it wouldn’t give it enough power! 😂 also do you know if I can make Apple Music work with it?
Great to hear, thank you so much for your lovely comment! Apple Music isn't compatible with any DJ software I'm afraid, Tidal is probably the closest equivalent in terms of commercial music!
i just got this controller and I think its a nightmare hate windows ten I think cant get it to sink the crossfader don't work nor do the vols it's just a nightmare for 90 pounds
Iv installed dj pro but when I it’s all connected up only the lights on front of controller light up but there’s no way of pressing any buttons, on the app tried searching for “MIDI” devices and nothing on there either
GUYS PAY ATTENTION, I DEFINITELY DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU TO BUY THE PRODUCT. I COULD NEVER CONNECT WITH A MOBILE PHONE. PLEASE TAKE THIS INTO CONSIDERATION. WHEN I PLUG IN THE DEVICE, ONLY THE LIGHTS FLASH AND THERE IS NO AUTOMATIC RECOGNITION!
@@oktayyurtsever1350 ok so you need to have the official apple lightning USB camera adapter. The copy ones won't work. Then you need djay app with subscription upgrade.
