American Audio ELMC-1: DJ fun for under a ton
If I were to go to the store right now and look for an acoustic instrument like a guitar or piano, I would definitely have an idea of the costs versus performance before even testing out a product. It would be clear to see that a thousand dollar acoustic piano will sound better than any electronic alternative. I would also be able to figure out that a guitar that is priced high would have much better features than one that is priced lower. Best of all, I can actually plug these things in and try them out before I take them home. It isn’t the same with a MIDI controller or something that takes time to play with. Setting one up in the store the way you like it is damn near impossible, since you are using a computer that is unfamiliar to you. You also don’t have the time to load up samples and test things out. For this reasons, I believe people would be hard pressed to buy an expensive MIDI controller without actually using it first, since there are options that are always much cheaper. American Audio just released a sub-entry level controller for less than a hundred dollars. http://djworx.com/american-audio-elmc-1-dj-fun-for-under-a-ton/
