| 05.04.2010 Rate 'Em (Soundcard Upgrade Time) | 9 | 09.04.2010 |
| I'm looking into a couple of possibilities for a Soundcard Upgrade. My needs are simple: A) 4 Outs, separate volume controls on each pair as I use the card for all computer needs (so I want a knob to control the volume) and of course cuing. B) 2 Ins, XLR for a mic and 1/4" for instrument, or… | ||

| 01.04.2010 VCI-300 jogwheel issues | 5 | 08.04.2010 |
| I'm very angry. My VCI-300 was bought new 6 months ago. I always had it inside the foamed VCI-300 bag and used it only once at a gig. The jogwheels seem to be ruined anyway. Although I played around with the touch sensitivity levels on the backside a lot the wheels only react sporadically to my… | ||
| 07.04.2010 Vestax VCM 600 question | 4 | 08.04.2010 |
| Hi folks, Firstly, I did use the search function and couldn't get a definitive answer to my question. Can I use a VCM 600 in Windows 7, 64 bit with a Centrino 2 (Core2duo 2.53) ghz processor? My NI Audio 2 soundcard and Traktor Pro are working in Windows 7 64 so I assume that isn't an… | ||
| 08.04.2010 USB Cable for Focusrite Saffire 6 | 1 | 08.04.2010 |
| After much deliberation I believe I'm going with the Focusrite Saffire 6 as my sound card. I've read about some issues concerning the supplied USB cable, so I'm wondering whether or not the DJTechTools cable will do the job for me. My main question is whether the cable will work well with the… | ||
| 26.03.2010 VCI-300 or VCI-100? | 8 | 07.04.2010 |
| Hello there, i am wondering what do you believe of these 2. Can you do the same stuff on a VCI300 as on the VCI100? and another thing.. Traktor Pro or ITCH? I have a feeling that you can get much more creative on the VCI100 and i dont know about the new ITCH how they dealt with the… | ||

| VCI-100SE or Kontrol X1 + Mixer What would you guys get? I'd like to hear from people who play out a lot. I am believeing of the VCI but am on the fence as I am used to a traditional DJ setup. What are the pro's and cons and does the VCI-100SE live up to the hype. My goal is 2 - 4 decks plus… | ||

| Hello everyone, I'm pretty new to the game of DJing but I'm looking into buying a keyboard for producing music and also maybe using as a live midi controller.

| 05.04.2010 Help! Modul8 (VJ) / Trigger Finger - Toggle->Hold MIDI Map? | 0 | 05.04.2010 |
| HEY! Jesus CHRIST I can not wrap my head around midi mapping. I'm using my Trigger Finger as a controller for the Mac VJing app Modul8 and all is working fine except one little thing; the pads are set to hold by default and I can't for the life of me switch them to toggle. I.e. I use them to… | ||
| 10.01.2009 American Audio Radius 1000 | 11 | 05.04.2010 |
| I just found this on guitarcenter.com. Essentially it is a CDJ that has a dual mode so that you can play CD/MP3s and midi signal your computer at the same time. It's $400 USD. So I know nothing about American Audio, probably for a reason, but this seems like an awesome controller / Deck. Anyone… | ||

| I keep believeing about getting one as a controller, and even with the DJTT mapping, I would still feel burned if they updated within the next year or two. I don't know much about hardware cycles for Djing gear , so, any information would be pretty sweet. As well, has anyone used a Stanton… | ||

| 01.04.2010 Behringer DDM 4000 vs a custom built midi controller | 1 | 01.04.2010 |
| I've been looking into building my own midi controller (UMC32 or similar) recently. When you spec all the parts it turns into quite an expensive project - particularly if you want something that gives you a similar experience to the VCI-100. Now, looking at the DDM 4000, it seems that this… | ||

| 28.03.2010 For all Audiophile/DJs- better to get one great pair or two good? | 5 | 30.03.2010 |
| I've saved up 200 for headphones. For a while I was deadset on buying myself a nice pair of Sennheiser- HD-II Pros. They seem quite loved however the praise of their sound is not universal. While their weight, and fit would seem to be a huge plus, I spend about half my time listening to music in… | ||
| 29.03.2010 Hercules MK4 | 2 | 30.03.2010 |
| We've certainly heard this "world's smallest" claim before in the world of DJ controllers, but as components shrink and plastics get thinner, we aren't shocked to see one company leap-frogging another. According to Hercules, its new DJ Console Mk4 is "the… | ||

| Threw a Pro X Fader into my VCI last evening . I got a sick deal as my friend and I bought the last two at a store here in town (Montreal seems to love Inno Faders and wont touch a Pro X, their loss). I followed the DJTT tutorial and it went in without a hitch. But now I would like to get a super… | ||
