24.06.2010 Audio latency not as simple as it looks.224.06.2010
Been reading up on writing audio software (Audio Anecdotes) and come across something that surprised me about audio latency. Usually, when you set up an audio device you get a slider that sets the "buffer size", often measured in milliseconds. That represents the amount of time the audio…

Hi, A friend of mine who's in a rock band but sometimes deejays as "his rock name band"dj set with traktor, asked me if there was some nice cheap controllers with integrated soundcards (and Traktor Compatible) for less than 300$. Any clues?
22.06.2010 What's the importance of CDJ's?1023.06.2010
I came into DJing in the last two years or so, and still can't figure out why people use CDJ's. Is it the appearance, is it the functionality. The way I look at it is Vinyl = being able to play 1 song at a time, rest in a crate CDJ Ver. 1 = Play up to 20 songs on each deck CDJ Ver 2. = Play…
14.01.2010 Numark Omni Controller - Graphics Mod1423.06.2010
Here is a graphics mod I did on the Numark Omni controller. My Omni graphics rubbed off after very mild home use. I also wanted to group controls to a midi map that I created for my controller and traktor. So here's what I learned so you can take apart your machine and not break it! 1. All…
19.06.2010 KRK Rokit522.06.2010
Ok guys I finally convinced the wife to let me blow some money on speakers and I've pretty much set myself on the KRK Rokit series. Only thing is should I go for the 5's or 6's. I'm not going for the 8's they would be too much for my small apartment. Thanks for the advice guys.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WQU-...layer_embedded While programs like Ableton Live have truly democratized electronic music making, most hardware interfaces can't hold a candle style-wise to traditional instruments (or even the MIDI gear of the Awesome 80s). Rather than merely bemoan this…

18.06.2010 Ipad challenger318.06.2010
First of all, no, I don't believe the ipad is going to be relevant in the evolution of digital music; pretty much for the many of the reasons people have stated here before. But my main issue comes with the heavy restrictions Apple has with software developers; it is a closed system and as such its…
18.03.2010 Controlling lights with MIDI. Can it be done cheaply and DIY-ly?718.06.2010
I just had an epiphany like you wouldn't believe. Part of me has always admired Daft Punk's live sets. You've all seen 'em. The pyramid? Well the lights for them were spectacular. The visual effects are second to none IMO. Oh, and the music is good too. I was searching for lights for my rather…

Hi all. I've started making a mapping for my LaunchPad with TraktorPro. Here are the pros&cons : Pros: More buttons than a midifighter. LED buttons that we can use to show tempo/sync (really nice) Cons: Less feeling than with a midifighter. No knobs so controlling volume/fx/filter…
16.06.2010 Faderfox DX2 for Traktor Pro116.06.2010
Hi all, Although I've been playing music since I was 5 (I'm 23), I am relatively new to DJ-ing. The idea kicked off about a year ago when I realised DJ-ing in fact opens up a plethora of possibilities: mixing entirely different genres into one another; and yet morphing selected tracks with…
