Independent Mixer At the heart of NS6 is a four-channel mixer that can operate standalone, which means if you can mix up to four external sources without even turning your computer on. Connect and mix CD players, turntables, MP3 players, or any other external source-you never have to worry about the awkward silence and inevitable moans of a unhappy crowd. Plus, the built-in 24-bit audio interface was engineered without compromise, giving NS6 audiophile-grade circuitry that keeps your mix clean and clear. Connect Anything A full range of input and outputs for connecting virtually any device: RCA inputs on each channel and four line-level inputs with two switchable to phono and two switchable to mic. Each of NS6's four channels has an input selector so you can easily transition between controlling Serato DJ's four software decks and your external sources. Control Serato one moment; mix in your turntable, iPod, or a mic the next. NS6 makes it possible to grab music from virtually any source and bring it into your mix. Enhanced Strip Search Using just the tip of your finger, you can glide to any point in a track effortlessly, then drop the virtual needle exactly where you want to be. Initially introduced on NS7, Numark's exclusive Strip Search virtual-needle-drop technology now includes a parallel string of bright red LEDs, so you can tell where the track is just by looking. It's one less reason to be staring at your computer screen. NS6's combination of premium features don't require you to conform to them. They conform to you, empowering you to perform and mix at your highest level. In addition, unlike some imitations, the Strip Search touch strips are positioned intuitively, so you will never hit them accidentally.
