General
The CMD series is Behringer's new range of MIDI controllers. They are a great improvement on Behringer's last DJ MIDI controller, the BCD3000, which was a becoming a bit dated. The CMD series ushers in a new age. This Studio 4A is a complete MIDI controller with a solid aluminium housing, equipped with two decks with large jog wheels and can easily be coupled with other CMD controller for personalised setups. A USB audio interface for all four decks is included.
Buttons and button-feedback on the Studio 4A
No DJ wants to have to look at a screen or use a mouse continuously. This is why Behringer has equipped the Studio 4A with various buttons that are all illuminated and give you feedback about the status. When you are using a function in the software, you automatically receive visual feedback on the controller. The buttons are equipped with a soft-touch rubber coating for optimal user-friendliness.
Extensive hotcues, various decks and effects
How extensive do you want your controller to be? The Behringer CMD Studio 4A is equipped with all kinds of practical functions that allow you to work creatively. The two decks are switchable, so that you are provided with deck A and C, as well as B and D. The jog wheels can be used for scratching when in this mode. You can program 8 hotcues, allowing for creative mixing. The effects section is also impressive. Up to four effects can be selected with adjustable parameters.

wat een controller voor het geld, het is mijn eerste controller maar vergleken met andere controllers van vrienden ben ik heel blij met deze controller. vier decks zijn handig, maar niet noodzakelijk. Knoppen zijn groot en goed te zien in het donker. 8 hotques, lange pitchfader, 6 inch jogweehls (pioneers cdj 200 hebben 8 inch jogweels volgens mij) effecten met draaiknop voor elk effect wat heel fijn is al wil je twee effecten gebruiken. Software is redelijk kan wel is crashen na paar uur de muziek blijft lopen alleen je ziet dan niet meer wat je doet/ gewoon oplossen terwijl je het publiek opfokt.

Allereerst is ie flink groter dat ik verwachte, hierdoor zijn knoppen etc niet zo ieniemienie maar lekker groot. Aansluiten is een fluitje van een cent. Behringer stond lang bekend om zijn mindere kwaliteit maar dat maken ze met dit apparaat ruimschoots goed. Ik had al een apparaat uit de CMD serie en deze sluit daar naadloos bij aan (ook qua formaat en looks) Mooi geborsteld alluminium op de bovenzijde. ingbouwde geluidskaart is ook erg fijn. Meegeleverde Deckadance is wel wat simpel, maar ik heb hem nu aan Traktor 2.0 gehangen en dat werkt geweldig. Let wel op dat je eerst de juiste ASIO driver installeert (staat op de Behringer site). Voor gebruik met Traktor is er een tsi. beschikbaar op de Behringer site. Knoppen die mogelijk dan nog niet werken kan je dan Midi-mappen. Als ik echt wat te klagen wil hebben zou ik de tulpuitgangen kunnen noemen, als dat XLR's waren geweest.... Maar voor dit geld is dit echt een top apparaat.
Oh ja, de meegeleverde handleiding van Behringer is een aanfluiting. Daar staat niets in :) Maar even googelen en je bent op de hoogte. Op YouTube staan enkele goede filmpjes voor het aansluiten en gebruik van deze controler.
