Numark Launches NS6II A 4-Channel Serato DJ Controller
Numark released an update to their NS6 DJ controller- the NS6II.The NS6II builds on the NS6’s legacy of
innovation and performance and delivers the user a 4-channel DJ controller, now with two USB outs and built-in
hi res screens!
Dual USB Outs For DJ Hand-Off
A Numark first—a Numark DJ controller that enables the user to connect two laptops simultaneously, connected
to Serato DJ for seamless DJ hand-offs. With a push of a button you and your partner DJ can switch between two
laptops and play at the same time between four channels.
Built-In Hi Res Display
Playing to the crowd is key to the success and energy of any event. Maximize the energy and stay connected to the
crowd with the built-in full-color 2-inch hi-res displays. The user can monitor BPM, platter position, time
remaining, pitch adjustment and keylock. Critical information that ticks all the boxes with intuitive actions
to keep the user focused on the performance. The user’s DJ senses are on fire as they can select the next song
in their playlist, all without ever looking at the laptop.
Independent Mixer
In addition to the dual USB outs, the NS6II is a standalone 4-channel mixer to connect turntables and external
media devices. The user can connect two media devices to the RCA line/phono inputs and switch between them on
a dime.
Touch-capacitive frequency knobs, with a simple touch adjust mid, low and high frequencies during the mix, for
the quality tone. With its audiophile-grade circuitry, the NS6II delivers 24-bit sound quality without
compromise.
Performance Pads
Rubber MPC performance pads give the user quick access to hot cues, auto loop/roll, manual loop mode sampler and
slicer. Each function duals-up with sub functions to give the user an access to a total of 16 velocity-sensitive
pads.
• Hot Cue –Set 8 cue points within your DJ software. Secondary function (click button twice) enables hot
cue + instant auto loop mode
• Auto/Roll - Pressing this button once will enter the auto looping mode- 16 bar, 8 bar and others. Secondary
function (click button twice) enables beat-jumping once auto loop is engaged utilizing parameter keys
• Loop Mode – Activate manual loop mode and any saved loops. Secondary function (click button twice) enables
a second bank of the Manual/Saved Loops section
• 8 Pad Sampler – Load custom sound samples such as tags and drops (non-velocity sensitive). Secondary
function (click button twice) enables velocity sensitive pads in sampler mode
• Slicer – As the track is playing the pad will follow the beat, and when pad is engaged (rhythmically) beat
will stutter per parameter. Secondary function (click button twice) will change the slicer into looping when pad
is engaged temporarily.
Pitch Fader
100mm pitch fader gives full control of tight, seamless blends across 4-channels. On the built-in display,
the pitch indication can be monitored without looking at the laptop. The smoothly-resistant long pitch fader
is responsive to every tick of the beat.
Software
The full version of Serato DJ comes with the NS6II, and all the user has to do is plug and play. NS6II also
has an option to upgrade in Serato DJ for the DVS expansion. The DVS expansion allows to connect external
turntables for time coded vinyl control.
