Not sure if you can link directly to dealers, but this is the first review of this unit to come out.

Good looking out.

Sounds promising. Still seems a little overpriced, but I guess the actual street pricing remains to be seen.

I'm gonna get my hands on this one for sure can't wait
DJ Xio 2:09 AM - 21 April, 2012
Me too... I was originally buying for my smaller events, clubs or backups but after reading the review it might just replace my pioneer ddj-s1
Ragman 2:46 PM - 22 April, 2012
Speculating at this point but, it just looks like a well thought out controller.
DJ Xio 10:12 PM - 22 April, 2012
I agree.

I'm putting my pre order next week and I'll do an unbiased video review as soon as I get it.

Looks like the end of May!

i got a new ns6 never been out the house as i use the vci300 all the time, what should i do get the credit card out like maskrider which will mean the ns6 will become a home boy for life or start using at gigs and wait for the ns6/80 which means for now am gonna be crying when you all start posting how great your 380s are when you get them. arrrrrrrrrrrr

im still wanting to see a few more videos....and also wonder how effects are assigned and how it works with the buttons and touch strip. I only use delay and either HPF or LPF, gotta see how that works before I'm sold. The other stuff like Slice Mode or even loop rolls I don't use too much.
DJ CAPRO 8:37 PM - 23 April, 2012
This will be under serious consideration once I see someone use the beat slicer to any decent extent, like on a funky mule or amen break... The pumping party rock dubstep tracks in all these videos won't sound any better or worse whatever they're doing to it :\
phatbob 8:43 PM - 23 April, 2012
It does sound epic with a good breakbeat, or the right acapella. Haven't found much else it sounds good with yet.

Maybe chop up some bass guitar riffs? Ala Ean Golden w/ Seven Nation Army

Yeah that would probably work. For me it's definitely a tool to use with samples and loops rather than whole tracks.

You'll get yours man.....I do have a V7 gathering dust, I prefer the VCI300 over it......When the VCI400 came out I knew right of the bat that Vestax will have there ITCH version.....I feel like a Kid on Christmas day.

there is still the question about beeing able to make manual loops on the unit not on the keyboard , does anybody care to shad some light on this isue , i see auto loop , i see loop rol , i see slicer but i don't see the basic function like : loop in , loop out, reloop butons and the very useful loop move function from the ns6 ?? anybody know something about this ? they seem to be rolling out new functions but have a total disreguard for the basic functions like the pfl monitoring on the ns6 remember that one? c'mon people it's like making a ferrari without the speedometer:(( ,

Like you said there are no manual loop buttons and since Itch is 1-to-1 mapped, this looks to be intentional.
