Numark’s Mixtrack family (Mixtrack 3 and Mixtrack Pro 3) is the world’s number one selling series of DJ controllers, because their simple, highly-functional design attracts DJs on all levels, from skilled amateurs to the most demanding professionals. They’re fun, easy-to-use, full-featured and offer professional build quality at an affordable price. The Mixtrack Platinum extends those attributes by adding hi-definition LCD displays at the center of each platter, 4-deck capability and gain controls for each channel.

The Mixtrack Platinum’s full-function display screens (showing BPM, track time, pitch position and deck number) makes it possible for the DJ to keep their view on the controller, not buried in the computer screen, so the DJ stays connected to their audience and the action. With independent transport controls, 24-bit audio output, wide-ranging 100mm pitch controls, Serato DJ Intro, multi-function touch strip and 16 back-lit performance pads, Mixtrack Platinum is definitely ready for action.

In addition, its Numark-exclusive touch-capacitive platters really make this something special. Utilizing revolutionary Numark technology, the platters give DJs the ability to scratch or stop a track simply by touching the top of the platter, while at the same time allowing them to adjust the pitch by manipulating the platter from the side. The touch control is also intelligent and self-correcting, sensing every motion and touch to ensure solid, reliable operation no matter what’s going on around you. No other brand of controller has platters like these. In addition, they’re made from heavy-duty metal, so they stand up to heavy-duty use, night after night.

“The Mixtrack Platinum is the perfect controller for DJs anywhere from the skilled amateur all the way up to the demanding professional, said Chris Roman, Senior Product Manager for Numark. He added, “It has every feature DJs need for outstanding performance and instant response. Plus, the LCD readouts and those one-of-a-kind touch-capacitive platters give the DJ instant feedback and ultimate control. This is a fun-to-use, pro-level controller at an incredible value that will be a hit with all DJs.”
