Numark MixStream Pro – Standalone Streaming DJ Controller

The Numark Mixstream Pro is a great all-in-one DJ console that changes the game for those wanting to get into DJing, but who like the idea of not using a laptop, buying music, or even having to plug in speakers. By using WiFi to access streaming services, through having built-in speakers, and by having a full-colour touchscreen interfacing with the built-in Engine DJ OS, the Mixstream Pro is hands-down the simplest way to get started in DJing today. Just add headphones!

The Numark Mixstream Pro is a standalone DJ system, that doesn’t need a laptop to DJ with. It has built-in speakers, connectivity to streaming services for instant access to music (the clue’s in the name), and can even interact with your Philips Hue lights for an instant home DJ light show. In short, it promises to be a new way to get started in DJing, without many of the usual hurdles to jump through.

But does it deliver on that promise? That’s what we’ll find out in this review.

First impressions

Despite being a “non-pro” brand, Numark’s gear has felt substantial, reliable and well-built for a while now, and the Mixstream Pro is no exception.

The Mixstream Pro is a mid-sized DJ console, notably deeper than typical software controllers, and is smartly presented, in Numark’s black and red colour scheme. The unit immediately stands out by virtue of the two speakers bottom left and right, the 7″ touchscreen in the centre, and the 6″ jogwheels.
