Despite being the new kid on the block, Mixars has already made a big impact on the DJ industry. The company has released a variety of devices since launching in 2016, including the DUO mixer, which Mojaxx reviewed last August.
On this episode of Tips and Tricks, Mojaxx reviews the Mixars CUT, an affordable two-channel battle mixer. The CUT was announced in 2016 alongside the Serato DJ-enabled DUO.
