I currently use a Denon DN-MC6000MKII as my dj controller. It seems to be great for mixing but not so great for microphones.
I am VERY particular about my sound and at my wedding on Saturday, the mics just did not sound that great. In fact, they have never sounded "great", just acceptable. Granted, I use high end Sennheiser mics and plug them directly into my Denon.
Others have suggested that I should use an external mixer and plug everything into that, especially the mics.
After a ton of research on this subject, I have decided to give it a try. I JUST ordered a Denon DN312 1U mixer. I will plug my Denon DJ Controller into the mixer and the mics into it as well. This will allow me to add more mics, if needed, as well.
Anyone else use an external mixer? How is it working out for you?
I am very particular about the look of the system as well. This unit is 1U rackmount and will fit nicely into my rack. I may have to move a few things around, but i'll make it fit.
Thanks in advance for your replies.
