![]() Party Mix Live has all the same controls and features as the Party Mix II. Installing Serato DJ Lite is also no bother, just head to the website and enter the code that comes with the controller, then simply plug in and play. You can connect and power them with a laptop via USB and connect headphones and speakers via their respective mini-jack ports. Setting up the Party Mix controllers is easy. Full disclosure: we had these on throughout our entire testing process, because why not? The different programmes can be toggled via a button on the side or via the settings menu in Serato. Albeit nothing more than three LED light balls on the back of the device, they can bring a bit of atmosphere to a dark room and would be well-received at a small party. ![]() What would a party be without a light show? Both Party Mix controllers come with their very own. These simple pads provide lots of flexibility for both newbies and advanced users to build tension in a mix. Next to those transport controls are a bank of four performance pads that allow you to set hot cues, create loops up to two bars, trigger samples (including but not limited to air horns), or apply effects including reverb, delay, phaser, flanger and more. There is also no way to adjust the range for the pitch slider, but we see this as a bonus to ensure beginner DJs aren’t overwhelmed with parameters. ![]() One frustration is the inability to take a track out of sync once it’s locked in, forcing you to change the setting within the Serato software. On each deck are play/pause, cue and sync buttons. These are all essential controls for DJs, and we’re glad Numark didn’t omit any of them. ![]() There are also Load buttons to select tracks for either deck, cue buttons and, of course, a crossfader and slider for track volumes. Also in the centre of the controllers is a bank of knobs for headphone mix, main output, levels for each deck and a browse knob for navigating Serato DJ. ![]()
