Reply to External Mixing Mode Alternatives?
External Mixing Mode Alternatives? Okay so I need some advice from the DJTT gods with some setup advice. I am starting to DJ with a friend, we are currently planning the setup. He currently DJs using an S4 and a macbook pro. Instead of Tag-Teaming, he'll do all of the actual Mixing (only using EQ and filters), and I will be fiddling around with post-fader effects in Ableton using a midi controller (still haven't decided what, maybe a few Behringer CMD modules if they are ever released ;-) ). The Audio will be internally routed from Traktor->Ableton->Audio Interface->Speakers with the help of the Program "JackPilot". I'd like to be able to put effects on single tracks, which means I have to send individual track signals to ableton. This means my buddy will have to use Traktor in external mixing mode. As we all know, this makes the faders on the S4 Pointless. I'm believeing if we use an audio interface with a whole bunch of outputs then he can just mix using the club mixer. He loves using his S4 to mix and scrub tracks, use cuepoints etc. though. Using an S4 together with a club mixer sounds a bit stupid though, so maybe he should buy a few X1s? What do you believe he should do? Is there a way to work around using external mixing mode? | |
