Namm 2010 - Hercules DJ Console MK4

As expected for a long time now, Hercules presents a new entry level console with an integrated soundcard, DJ Console MK4.

This is a version of the new MP3 e2, but equipped with an integrated soundcard which will replace MK2, already outdated. The new console has headphone output, microphone input, 2 stereo inputs for Phono, Line and one Pro intended specially for application of CDJ  players (the last one was added on advice of DigitalJockey associate Cioce), and standard stereo outputs.
The controller section was not changed as compared to the model without soundcard.
