You're missing something Ian. That lack of internal style editing on the DJX really wasn't as much a show stopper as you'd think. It didn't take long before the di-hard midi techies got into the DJX and opened her up for software apps.

Not only that the DJX became a common side by side companion to di-hard MPC users who wanted a nice inexpensive groove keyboard to use with their samplers.

Roland did it too.., there was the really not so well known Roland EG-101.., that board was hard to find.
