A DJ control surface with an audio interface for a price that won't sink your wallet.
The Behringer BCD2000 connects 4 channels of audio to your computer via USB and features high-resolution 24-bit A/D and D/A converters, 2 phono preamps to connect turntables, and a pair of scratch wheels for scratching, cue searching, and pitch bending audio.

The Behringer BCD2000 is equipped with 2 internal phono preamps (one selectable as line input) for mixing your vinyl records with MP3 files or using the Behringer B-Control as a digital DJ mixer with full effects control for your dual vinyl performances. Its sophisticated headphone section includes PFL Mix, Split options, and direct listening to master output mix. Play/pause, cue, loop, and pitch bend functions are regulated via dedicated controls for intuitive DJing, and 4 user-assignable controls and buttons are available for an integrated FX section. The DJ control surface lets you run up to 4 effects simultaneously in real time, including any DirectX effect plug-in and record your live performance straight to your computer's hard disk. Take advantage of the enormous processing power of modern PCs and mix, scratch, and manipulate digital music in real time-regardless of the format.

This is an awesome product for beginner DJ's. Its a mixer, interface and has 2 jog wheels all in one small light weight console. The good things about this product is that you can scratch with no delay, cue up, add FX, and use a microphone. The bad part about it is that the driver ARE NOT going to to with vista. XP and XP only!!! Also the software is not good. I recommend using Virtual DJ.

good product, horrible software

The unit itself is great for the money, but the software is horrible! When I tested it out with the software and drivers provided the music skipped every few second. The drivers are too weak to handle the audio stream and control instructions. I got a copy of virtual dj and set it up so that the software uses the standard driver in the comp instead of the behringer driver and a 512 latency, optimized for performance, worked great. The prob is that virtual dj cost too much! I would definately recommend getting the BCD3000 instead because it comes with DJ Tractor. Hopefully Behringer will come out with an update that actually works. If you have software already, then this unit is a great buy for someone that DJ's every now and again.

I purchased one, returned it because one of the scratch wheels was rubbing side of the case and the master volume cover fell into the unit. I got replacement unit and the right play button sticks (it does not bounce back, sometimes). It has a lot of features and works good as a midi controller and audio card but the quality is terrible, its a toy. If you are a pro DJ do not buy it. If you want a cheep toy this will work just fine.

Problem solved for mp3 mixing

At first had alot of headaches with trying to load the included software to my laptop then tried my home cpu, no luck. The software just won't work. Tried to install the virtual dj and it worked great. No problems with mixing live. My laptop now does most of the work. All my orginal cds are now mp3s. and mixing live has just been taken to a new level. My laptop is a simple hp with 1 gig of ram and will take it with no problem runing windows xp to allow software compatibility. The three band EQ will not maintain the adjustments from song to song but if you reset while cueing the next song no problem. For the dj that knows what he wants without spending too much of his earnings keep it simple and go digital with a control such as this, less work and a great performance throughout the night. you just have to know how to combine it with softwares that will do what you want to include in your performance. For the money you cannot go wrong. My setup is laptop, bcd2000, 4 channel mixer w/7band eq , peavey215, 3/4 peavey X over , 3 amps and 2 1500 earthquakes, 2 djs4 1000watt, 2 added tweeter boxes 400 watts ea. All together quality sound you can hear and feel.

I own the BCD2000 and loved the simplicity. After lugging crates around for so long and doing firends parties with all my stuff i had to buy shares in my chiropracters business. So when this beauty came along i jumped at the chance. And as usual, no one told me about the software. What a headache, about 1 hour into my set it stalls...And CRASHES!!!! Not good when people are paying for you and the crowd is dancing. Behringer dont seem to have the answer, although the release of the 3000 and traktor software could fix this. If anyone knows of a driver update please let me know or else buy the M-Audio Torq Xponent. It ROCKS!
