Can help i have a cortex dmix controller and want to update its firmware but when. Do you know if the DMIX-600 shares the same software?

Anita Kelsey - Falling (Extended Mix)225. DJ Feel Aurosonic feat Ale Haze - Feel (Giuseppe. Cortex dmix 600 firmware. Let me start off by disclosing that I have been a beta tester for Cortex for over a year now since they released the HDC1000 and I have tried hard to be very honest with my thoughts about the units noting not only their features but also their shortcomings.and that I am not an official dj equipment reviewerLOLjust a working dj.

The latest Cortex device that will hit the shelves in the Spring is the all-in-one digital player the Dmix600. It’s similar to the Dmix300 but with some added features The unit measures approx 19” x 11” x 2 ½”.

It weighs about 12 lbs and my first impression after unpacking it is that is built like a tank. Just like the other Cortex unit’s the whole thing seems to be made out of metal and the fancy shmancy black sparkly finish on top is present. All of the knobs, switches and wheels feel very solid and none of them have a “cheap” feel to them at all. What does the unit do? Just in case anyone has been buried under a rock the last year and doesn‘t know what these digital controllers can do, the Cortex Dmix600 will allow you to play CBR and VBR mp3 files off either an external hard drive, an iPod or any other usb device. You can actually mix using only one source which is pretty incredible once you stop and think about it.

In addition, the Dmix600 has an iPod dock on the top which will be quite handy. Included are two little iPod “adapters” (which are merely nothing more than plastic spacers) to help tighten up that space depending on what kind of iPod you have. They are labeled iPod mini (30G) and iPod nano (30G). I found the smaller “iPod mini” spacer worked best with my new Classic 80G iPod.

The dock is convenient as I always seem to be scrambling for those white iPod cords but the fear that I always have is that some cornhole is going to walk up and yank my iPod out of the dock and be lost in the crowd before I even know what happened. I don’t know if any manufacturers of dj equipment that make stuff with iPod docks have ever done this but I wish they could design some type of locking mechanism that would prevent this. I’m just a worry wart. Back/Connections On the back of the unit you will find numerous outputs. RCA outs for Master, Booth and Record and Master Balanced XLR outputs. Inputs consist of one ¼” mic input, and two additional RCA inputs for either line in (cd player, tape deck, etc) and/or phono.

Hd or usb hub and also another usb connection where you can hook up your laptop and essentially make changes while your iPod is docked in the Cortex unit. Front/Connections On the front (not the top where the exciting stuff is!) is another ¼” mic input (total of 2 mic inputs) with mic on/off switch and mic low/high eq, the main power switch, and the headphone input with a left/right fader and a “cue efx” button. The front mic volume will control volume for both this input and the one on the back that I mentioned above. The headphone/fader control allows you to fade back and forth from both sides which will aid in beat mixing. You are not able to adjust the volume in each separate side thoughjust fade back and forth between them. I still am confused about the cue efx button as I thought it would be a way for me to listen to efx on a song while in cue but I have noticed that I can still hear the effect on the song whether this button is engaged or not.

Top/Main Panel/Player Ok, let’s get to the good stuff! Those familiar with the Cortex units will recognize the two blue screensone on each side for each player. I was a little disappointed that they are the size of the screens found on the 1000 and not the 3000. On each side/player you will also find: navigation buttons/arrows, pitch sliders and buttons, Master tempo, key, jog mode button, play, cue and loop buttons. Also included are the ever present info, play screen, search and shift buttons that are on all the Cortex units. Next to the navigation arrows are the hot cue buttons. Top/Main Panel/Mixer In the middle lies the mixerstarting from the top there are knobs and switches that sit next to each player.
