its a top idea, just a shame they couldnt have gone one further and use the sound output from the CDX as a sound device to be used via USB, after all its efectively a soundcard anyway, taking the digital infovmation from the CD etc and making an analouge signal, would save wasting 2 perfectly good DACs and a few hundred on a sound card

Alf are you serious? :D If it is true, it should be product of the year :D
LOL I am serious and you see that Norway has back me up on this :) so it is all true. And yes, it will be product of the year as same as Numark CDX was when it was out :). Numark is making and inventing new stuff all the time!

iCDX looks cool, but.... around 750 € and no direct drive???
make it 50 € more expensive and give it a motion plate...
I don't think it makes a lot of difference... when you get to that price range, you go for specs, not price.

I've cut and pasted some of the text from the Numark Cue Manual below, so that people can work out the connection to VDJ which will be the same. What it doesn't tell us is how you connect two decks to VDJ so as to control each VDJ deck with 1 iCDX.
It doesn't look like you can do it to me, although some of the videos posted on the forum show two iCDX with VDJ.
As you can read (below) only require one iCDX to control both virtual
decks.
Anybody any ideas?
Extract from Numark Cue Manual on www.numark.com follows
Cue is programmed to work extremely well with the Numark
iCDX. This provides a great way to control the most important
parameters and controls on the two virtual decks, such as
cueing, effects and looping, without ever having to touch the
keyboard.
In addition, you only require one iCDX to control both virtual
decks. The iCDX will control whichever deck is currently
“active” in Cue. You can make a deck “active” by switching
between the decks with the “Eject” button on the iCDX. This
provides an incredibly efficient and effective way of controlling
the software externally.
How to hook up and initialize your iCDX to work with Cue:
1. Turn on the iCDX.
2. Connect a USB cable from the “Slave” output on the iCDX to an available USB port on
your computer.
You will see the following two pop-ups appear consecutively on the screen:
3. On the iCDX, press the “Src” button and then rotate the “Parameters” knob until you see
“USB-HID” displayed on the iCDX screen. This will put the iCDX in “Human Interface
Device” mode and allow it to control Cue.
4. In Cue, click on “Config” button and select the “Remote Control” tag.
5. You will see a box for the Numark iCDX. Check the “Enable” box. Now you are ready to
control Cue with the iCDX.
Please note: If you disconnect your iCDX and connect it again, you will
need to uncheck and then check the “Enable” box in Cue again. This will
re-initialize the iCDX.
Once you have properly connected and initialized your iCDX, you can use the iCDX to load
songs, scratch and cue, set loop points, add effects and more – without ever having to touch
the keyboard of your computer.

Using the iCDX with Cue
Remember: The iCDX will always address the deck which is currently
“active”. A deck is “active” when the deck number is illuminated. You can
always activate a deck by switching between them by pressing the “Eject”
button on the iCDX.
