    I got the 72 last year and it's by far one of the best battle mixers ever made; if you're on the fence about getting one I’d suggest going for it. It'll enhance your skills...also kindly remember for those starting out and possibly using Serato/Traktor and such to keep in mind DJ’N is an “auditory” medium so develop the art & skill through hearing and do not get “stuck” staring at waveforms.

Don't buy somthing because someone else told you "it's the best" because their needs may be different than yours.. Find out for yourself what's the best for YOU. The only way for you to make an informed choice is to try out BOTH mixers hands-on and choose what works best for your personal workflow.

    Thanks for video! I just started and ive been watching this video and doing this 2x a day to perfect these. I signed up for the toolkit but still haven't gotten a link to download this beat.

      No probs! This beat is called "Hustlin'" by Faust & Shortee ... It isn't in the free toolkit, but you can get it here: www.djshortee.com/bionic-beats/
