The PLAYdifferently - MODEL1.4 is with four stereo channels the more compact version of the high quality analog performance mixer MODEL1. The professional mixer impresses with the same design and offers the highest manufacturing quality.
The 4-channel DJ mixer features two stereo send and return paths, two mix outputs, and two high-performance phono preamps. In addition, each channel is equipped with 60mm studio-quality TKD faders, independent high-pass and low-pass filters, and semi-parametric EQs for precise sound shaping. Furthermore, thanks to analog overdrive, the addition of extremely warm and fat sounding saturation is made possible.
Two independent cues, a D-Sub input/output, and the Mixer Link system for coupling multiple mixers are also part of the equipment, just like its big brother.
On top of that, there's a 3-band master EQ and a 2-band booth EQ on the intuitive control surface to perfectly match the sound to the environment.
The PLAYdifferently - MODEL1.4 is just like the MODEL1, a DJ mixer as well as instrument in a more compact and affordable format, best suited for use in the home studio or as the ultimate analog tour mixer.
top build quality, very compact. top quality pots and faders, with different resistance and shape on knobs depending on function. well thought out, obviously designed by djs with lots of experience.
hpf and lfp mixing more intuitive and better than any eq for all music genres imho. the parametric bell filter in the middle covers the whole spectrum and is an icing on the cake.
master EQ very musical, soft, meant to shape but can be used creatively with its zero-crossing on/off. the master filter covers a bigger range than the channel ones, it's not a vcf, sounds amazing and can be used on the returns too. phono preamps are really high quality.
8 balanced in and out on a dj mixer! incredible mixing bus I can hear everything. sound quality is top notch, hard to imagine doing much better with analogue. made by the same guys most responsible for the xone 92, for me, this is the true successor, uncompromised.
one minus. It's very addictive and pretty hard to turn the thing off :)
