The unit has a pre-defined Audio setup and a special button in the AUDIO tab of Config to provide that. Note. Each NDX500 unit (if more than 1 is connected) will be additionally displayed in this window, and any modifications in the mapping file will affect all units. There are four buttons around the jogwheel for brake, reverse, scratch and search. Overall they do what they say they do. Brake time can be adjusted. Unfortunately it automatically means that you have a start delay too! I’d personally prefer just a brake, with no start delay if you can’t set both independently. I’ll use a brake on occasion as an effect, but I never ever use start delay (does anyone?). No drivers are required to be installed for the NDX500. The NDX500 is a USB class-compliant and your Operation system (Windows or Mac) will auto-install the necessary drivers and will auto-detect the NDX500 as a Midi device with built-in Audio interface.

There is a clear eject button (for the CD, not for the USB!). And there are LEDs to show which of the modes you are operating in. Rather than buttons for each mode (like on higher end and bigger players), this is a single-button rotation system. It cycles through CD (LED on), USB (LED on) and then Midi (both LEDs on). This is totally acceptable I think. If your workflow on a media player is such that you need to switch faster/more directly, this player is probably not for you anyway. On booting the player, the first thing you notice is the bright blue ring around the jogwheel. As it seems to serve no other purpose than cosmetic, I wouldn’t mind being able to either switch it off or at least dim to a third of its current brightness. It’s a bit of a distraction to me frankly. The jogwheels work well, but have an annoying bright blue ring around then that you can’t turn off or dim.There is a solid pitch fader with no centre indentation, so you can just slide over that centre point without a problem. Some people like that, others prefer the clear centre point. I don’t really care either way, although I do think that the ones that have that little “hump” in the middle (especially on cheaper gear) are less easy to fine-tune around the centre position of the fader. It feels pretty heavy for such a compact player, which leads me to believe there’s been some serious consideration to the build quality of it. This definitely does not feel like a budget/low-end player. NDX500 is a USB / CD media player and software controller that lets you DJ with your entire media library - anywhere.

Next to the obligatory warranty booklet (who reads that stuff, like ever?) and a multilingual manual, the NDX-500 comes with a separate power cord, a rather basic (and frankly pretty short) RCA cable (that I tossed in the bin immediately) and a very nice and rather long USB cable that seems to be of a high quality design.
