It's A No Go for the Hercules DJ Console Says One Reviewer

DJ Equipment Make: Hercules

DJ Equipment Model: DJ Console

Hercules DJ Console MK2 Dual Deck DJ Mixer

What I would like to say is that the Hercules DJ Console is a horrible piece of equipment. Lets say you were playing a vinyl, okay. While it's playing you could scratch with it and all the other stuff those DJs do. But in the other hand, this Hercules DJ package is software base.

The Hardware: The DJ Console is just a controller for the software, therefore don't really require a fast Hi Speed USB connection. I sampled using one of the software that's supplied with the package and found that when you would play a song on the computer, you can't scratch or anything else with it. That's while a song is playing. That seems odd, doesn't it. You could only scratch when you loaded a song on either side and then scratch with it. I sampled other software too and result was the same. I could only scratchwhen a song wasn't playing.

I also found that the audio won't feed the to ear phone directly as lets say you the DJ would try to mix in beats through listening through your earphones. But what ever you do you could hear the same thing in the output to the speakers and you earphone.

Overall: I give this package a 0 start out of 5. That means a no recommendation at all.
