Improvised DJ Midi Setup
Posted on: 26.09.2012 by Broderick Salute
Adding to my collection, uh I mean setup.... I am building an improvised DJ setup for traktor pro 2. I have a:

Macbook 13" with Traktor Pro 2

Vestax Typhoon

DJ Hero wii controller running midi over bluetooth through OSCulator

Rock Band 3 Wii Keyboard with a midi to usb cable (mapped to cue points and effects)

behringer xenyx 502 mixer

rokit 5 monitor

bose sounddock (with female ipod to male 3.5mm)

marshall guitar amp.

This is my improvised ghetto setup until I get some real gear. Let me know what you believe!!!!DSC00711.jpgDSC00695.jpgDSC00698.jpgDSC00701.jpgDSC00715.jpgDSC00714.jpgDSC00705.jpg

*It's very immoral to steal anything and even worse: unprofessional. All the producers that I know who I consider successful (I.E their music supporting themselves and their family financially) do not take anyone who steals software seriously. I mean come-on guys it's pretty common sense.

Seriously how hard is it to just shut up about your piracy until you buy the legit thing? I'm not singling you out man. There have been a number a posts about this lately so it's been bugging me. Anyways.... Good luck with your music ventures amigo!!
Thanks for clarifying. I understand completely, I just didnt know I was gonna get hit that hard, twas just a post... Ya you too

Srsly, do whatever you want, nobody here should actually care.
I agree completely!! I just wasnt sure if everyone was like that here though. I just joined the community yesterday and thought it would be cool to post a picture of my setup and get some tips. Didnt know the people on here were such douchebags!

BTW read the edit i made to my first post. It might enlighten you a little more on the situation

Ok, this is the most resourceful setup i have seen yet. It might even be bordering on ghetto... But it is getting the job done

I started off on a beringher bcd3000. It didn't even have touch sensitive jogs but I loved it and it did the job. I've always liked the look of the jogs on the typhoon.

Seriously guys, the dude is 15 and he's tryna do what he can. I'm sure he's upset as he's not been back. It would be a shame to lose a new member and help him understand the cool vibe around here as well as morals and dj etiquette. That's why I joined , because of the community spirit.

Joeski4, you have come to the right place to enhance your passion for music. I must say I am intrigued with your setup. I had no imagination as to what I wanted to do when I started, where as you seem quite creative. Get yourself a ligit traktor copy. Tbh I started with a crapped version myself just to test thewaters. But quickly bought it when I realised I wanted to take it seriously and needed a a more stable program with updates which are fairly regular. DJTT helped me realise the importance of supporting products I use. The people on here are generally really cool and very helpful. There has been a few knobs around lately so you can understand why people are hesitant to new
Members sporting dodgy stuff. Lesson learned. Anyway it's all about the music in the end. Welcome

You're 15 and you bought traktor SCRATCH pro, thereby implying that you also have a certified NI audio interface, but you're not using any kind of timecode or indeed said interface... I'm not buying it.

It doesn't matter if you're rocking 4 CDJ-2000 nexus, torrented software isn't cool man.
