The Internet’s Opinion

From 3 professional reviews: a fair amount of evidence.

All three professional reviews recommend it for the sound through its Rupert Neve Designs transformer, the build and feel of its rotary and isolator knobs, the boost-send master isolator and the built-in effects, and all three name the price as the drawback. No owner reviews were found, and the reviews all date from 2024.

Our take

Rory TassellWritten from the sources on this page, not from a loan unit.

All three professional reviews recommend the euphonia for the sound through its Rupert Neve Designs transformer, the build and feel of its rotary and isolator knobs, the boost-send master isolator and the built-in effects, and all three name the price as the drawback. No owner reviews were found, and every review dates from 2024. Buy it if a rotary mixer is your instrument and the budget allows; it has no crossfader or channel filters.

What it is

Status, October 2026: current. AlphaTheta still lists the euphonia.

What it is

The euphonia is a four-channel rotary DJ mixer from AlphaTheta, announced on 14 March 2024 as the company's first rotary mixer (DJ TechTools). It mixes digitally at 96 kHz with 32-bit converters, and all output passes through a transformer circuit co-designed with Rupert Neve Designs (AlphaTheta product page).

Each channel has a trim, a three-band EQ, a send knob and a rotary fader whose knob is ringed with elastomer; there is no crossfader and no channel filter. The master section has a three-band isolator whose Boost Send buttons put an effect on one band as the knob turns, with a boost level of 0, +6 or +12 dB. The built-in send effects are Delay, Tape Echo, Echo Verb, Reverb, Shimmer and a high-pass filter, alongside an external send/return and a master insert for units such as the RMX-1000. The Energy Visualizer display shows a needle meter for each channel and a spectrum analyser of the master.

Every channel takes phono, line and coaxial digital inputs on RCA, plus USB audio from a computer through the single USB-C port. Outputs are XLR master, 1/4" TRS booth with a two-band EQ and RCA rec out, and the mic input is an XLR/TRS combo. It unlocks rekordbox Performance mode and DVS, and works with Serato DJ Pro and Serato DVS on a paid licence. It measures 429.2 x 331.0 x 119.9 mm and weighs 9.5 kg, and the box holds a power cord, the Quick Start Guide and Precautions for Use (euphonia manual).
