Also, what good is the fader guys? Not really a deal breaker! Tell you what - here's an idea (anyone listening?) make it so that I can use the fader with Traktor Pro or something like what faders are REALLY meant for! YES I likee to use the controller for DAW but LET ME USE IT FOR DJing TOO. Now, THAT WOULD be a deal CLINCHER. Let me know when you have it sorted (so I can sell me new A-300 Pro in time to buy your new kit with aforementioned features, cheers.

I totally agree with everything "justaman6972" says. I'm selling my PCR300 (while its still "new") and going for Cakewalks dedicated A-300 Pro instead. Setup is tooooo confusing with the manual and the LED display circa 1980's just pisses me off. Shame because the feel of the buttons/knobs are great - but then again A-300 Pro will be same/better.

just got the PCR500 but the user manual requires a PHD engineering degree to learn to use it and the tech talk is confusing as crap mate. The company should include aDVD that will teach setup and how to use the thing,as it is qute complicated,lots of tech speak that nrml humans dont use. Little help please!!!
Respect...
