The SA.5 is the first professional battle mixer which does not have a single rotary knob. Using all faders gives turntablists controls with which they are familiar and comfortable using. The positioning of all sliders and switches has been taken into special consideration for a clean, simple and easy to understand layout that is not over-crowded or confusing. Stanton's Engineering team has taken great care in designing a mixer that will sound great whether being used on stage at battles or in the studio. It is guaranteed to be the mixer that future world champions are made on. The SA.5 is the exclusive mixer of the Allies Allstar Beatdown battle.
