Not sure if there has been a thread regarding this yet.
Excellent news cant wait to bag one.

you're late to the party. we've been discussing this for over a week now when it was first shown at NAMM.
MusicDan 11:27 PM - 9 February, 2013
You know what NAMM is, right?
Jamie 3 dexx 1:27 AM - 10 February, 2013
National Association of Music Merchants ? ...

No, never heard of it !

You know what sarcasm is, right ?
joke lol !!! :P


It's all good peeps. I cant wait to see what the competition have to offer to for this summer
also cant wait for a proper demonstration video of the MK2 in action by a proper DJ not just some sales man.
Ragman 1:37 AM - 10 February, 2013
I'm just hoping they make a V7 MKII.
Jamie 3 dexx 1:47 AM - 10 February, 2013
i currently use v7 would be nice to see a fresher reincarnation of it
but think a all in one unit is better for my preference at this moment in time.

Only disappointment ive had is the fact that the bridge is now a dead in the water
after all the run up and commotion. Mix tape would have been a great tool to of had
for doing album mixes etc..
Ragman 4:49 AM - 10 February, 2013
Yeah it would have been the bees knees. Who knows they may surprise us 5 years from now. LOL

Does anyone know how much the NS7 MKII weighs? I'm an NS7 owner and I'd hate to get another controller as heavy as the NS7.
Boombox 11:21 PM - 24 April, 2013
Same or a little heavier I would imagine. Weight has never been a problem for me and I have 2 V7s and a mixer to carry.

Your flight case is on wheels yes?
DJ Trice 11:52 AM - 25 April, 2013
Weight (FR): NS7 mk2: 17 kg
Weight (FR): NS6: 12 kg

Translet are:

NS7: 37.47 lb
NS6: 26.45 lb
JD Scribbles 3:55 PM - 28 April, 2013
anyone from Numark or serato know if the Innofader PNP is going to fit/work the NS7 MKII ?
theanthonygroup@gmail.com 1:31 PM - 1 May, 2013
Yes my flight case is on wheels but I'd like to have something a little lighter. Especially if I'm air traveling and would like to put it in the overhead. Speaking over air traveling and overhead. Is their a new soft case that would fit the NS7 and NS7 MKII for air travel? I wouldn't dare check it in as luggage to go into a luggage compartment. I'm sure it would suffer damage or even worst, not make it to the destination with me.
Boombox 1:54 PM - 1 May, 2013
As far as I remember the bottom case weighs about 4-5 kg. Get rid of that, have one made from either perspex or aluminium and you'll cut the wight considerably.
theanthonygroup@gmail.com 2:06 PM - 1 May, 2013
Wow...have no idea who can actually make one for me? This sounds like a custom build.Can it be ordered on line?
Boombox 1:18 PM - 2 May, 2013
Any place that sells perspex should be able to do this for you. You can do this yourself as well: just measure each section of the bottom plate of the NS7 and order the pieces. Then you'll need file the edges to make them fit to one another and use a colourless perspex glue.

If you want it aluminium then you'll need to find a place with a press to be able to accurately bend it to your needs.

I would go for perspex personally as it will be considerably cheaper and you can do this at home.

The Pro will fit. (I'm an Innofader sales rep! :)
Ragman 10:55 PM - 5 May, 2013
Sweet thanks Punky, that's great news. Good to see you're still with A.I.
Punky 11:41 PM - 5 May, 2013
Yep! Still rocking it!
DJ Trice 8:57 AM - 6 May, 2013
Finally, i prefer waiting for all corrections bugs of SDJ before thinking about buying a NS7.
For now, NS6 with SDJ is dope ! Still using Itch. Will never buy this controller for using with this soft !
Djkom 5:38 PM - 9 May, 2013
Nobody has noticed that there is no dedicated sampler level knob or fader ???
What a big fail for a dedicated Serato DJ new controller !!
Boombox 5:57 PM - 9 May, 2013
I'll worry about that when I start using all 4 decks at the same time AND need a sampler cause my mixes are too boring....
Until that day comes I'm more than happy to be mixing 2 decks, have an acapella on third channel and use 4th channel as sampler.

Sample decks are fine on 2 channel controllers but with a 4 channel mixer they are, in my opinion, more gimmick and novelty than anything else.

I completely agree, so why put them in? Because Numark will get blasted if they don't.

Do you mean a "dedicated" sample channel, or the mere existence of a sample player at all? I'm just trying to understand your logic.

What about the PnP.....will it work?
Punky 1:43 PM - 10 May, 2013
Roll with the Pro.
blackavenger 5:43 PM - 10 May, 2013
^ I was thinking more about the Channel Faders when I asked that ^
Punky 5:06 PM - 11 May, 2013
The channel faders are more complicated. You may need mini Innofaders for that and we are working on that. Do you have a DDJ-SSX?
blackavenger 5:29 PM - 11 May, 2013
No, as far as controllers are concerned, I have an NS6.
Punky 5:30 PM - 11 May, 2013
Ah ok cool. If someone has an SSX, a multimeter, and some gumption, they can take some measurements to check compatibility.

Saving crates...whenever I close Itch and open it my crates are gone
