I just had another read on the Hercules website. I think I will invest in one the puppies.
I can't believe there is a difference in MK1 and MK2... one sound card makes a difference of 120.00

The difference in Mk1 and Mk2 isnt the soundcard. They both have the same soundcard. The difference is the Mk2 has buttons you can actually use whereas the Mk1 buttons are pretty much useless in responding to when you press them.

Will VDJ support this new remote control? I was considering the Numark TC, but this may be a better option for me.
Posté Mon 10 Mar 08 @ 11:38 pm
yes it will i think from version 5.7

I really hope so, I think they wil bel flying of the shelves.
I'll be ordering one for sure, but I'll be waiting a couple of weeks to see how they preform with VirtualDJ. Because they're bound to be teething problems.

I had an email from a wholesaler who said they would only have 30 units available so pre-ordering was a must
