I'm using Traktor Pro with my DJC4 midi controller and I notice a slight delay from when I raise a fader channel, pitch level, turn a knob, etc. to the actual change in the software (whether TP, VDJ, etc.). Is there a way to decrease or possibly eliminate this delay since it can affect the output…

I saw this yesterday. At first glance i thought it was some kind of late april's fools joke, because of the name, then i realized pioneer really did this. Basically it's a glorified goddamn split usb cable. Ok, there is a reason behind this, and it's that the ipad itself cannot power the ergo or…

06.04.2013 Am I The Only One Mad At This?406.04.2013
Am I the only one mad that DJing has become almost pathetic and that we have lost the true meaning of 'disc jockey'. Nowadays anyone can go and buy a digital DJ controller for $100. I am just mad that vinyl timecode is gone and a DJ is becoming less of a DJ. Thats just me. Anyone else?
