Cons.

One of the customer complaints was that Numark X6 is generally well liked by users, but there are a few minor complaints:-

One user said:- “One problem tho is that numark x5 has a better fader than X6 (In turntablism, the fader is the most important!). My solution? I bought an Innofader for the numark x6. Now it has more bells and wistles and even a better fader! (not that the X6 has a bad fader).”

Two other minor complaints from one user “The crossfader knob has a comfortable rubber-like coating on it that makes it a little more difficult to crab-scratch with“, and “The led lights are extremely bright! They are colorful and useful, but are very blinding“.
