After 20+ yrs of vinyl dj'ing, very comfortable with 1210's and the feel. Took the plunge and these xdj1000's are excellent in terms of the playability, vinyl option, feel and comparability to the 1210's. Solid unit, very easy to use, intuitive, great set of functions. It's a must to use Rekordbox for track management can be a bit daunting for first time however becomes much easier once your in. Occasional issues where correct file format can not be read but easy to fix with a Google search. Wasn't sure I'd be sold on them so soon but having 2 turntables and 2 of these on the go is a total blast. Would recommend the xdj1000mk2!
