So I've been using just a laptop for the last few months, and while it's not a bad way of mixing, I've got a little money saved and I really fancy a control surface to work with. I don't need or want jogs. Mixing purely with a laptop for the last while has taught me that for what I'm doing…

As title says im looking for a pair of cdjs for home to link into serato/traktor, i know native support is not there for both but timecodes work for me for present. Is it worth spending the extra bucks for a 850 because of the platter size on the 850. I dont scratch but do use vinyl mode as…

What are some of the obvious hardware flaws in the S4, Maschine, X1, F1? If you could design modular controllers like the CMD line, what would they feature and how would they be different from what is already on the market? I'm starting my own controler company and want your input on where NI…

Greetings knowledgeable DJTT community . I just picked up an AKAI MPD26 and have plugged it into my ableton and I am having a ball of time.

I have a question regarding something I've seen in guides as necessary materials for a VCI 100 DIY Arcade Mod: "Lead wires- 16 about 3-4 inches long (can be cut from microphone cable)" Since DDTT don't sell the DIY kits anymore I've been getting the materials myself but when I posed…

Hey so I finally figured out what I'm going to get for a first serious setup (original VCI 400 + Midi Fighter 3D) and had a quick question about USB cables. I suppose first of all, does the MF3D come with a USB cable? I didn't see anything about it on the page, but I like to make sure. Midi…

04.07.2012 F1 or Midi Fighter or Lemur - Best Option?004.07.2012
I currently have an S4, but looking to expand to best use the remix decks in Traktor 2.5. I also have an iPad that is begging to be used (I have TouchOSC on it, but I simply don't have the knowledge base, or time, to create a layout and then map it properly - so I'd need an existing template to…

I am potentially buying a Denon DN-x1600 mixer for use at home to replace my functional, but largely useless Numark M6 mixer. I mainly use Traktor with an X1, a Xone:K2 as my internal mixer controller etc., and now the new F1. I recently have branched out to add 2 CDJs for practice at home to…

02.07.2012 Traktor F1: will one suffice or....303.07.2012
I'm considering getting an F1 to add to my Traktor S4, but in all the promo vids the performers are using two F1's. So I'm left wondering if only having one would be worth it since I'll only have control over 4 remix/sample decks. Or do I need two of these for it to be worth it Other options…
02.07.2012 Zomo MC-1000 opinions?002.07.2012
So I have a Xone 42 mixer and I use it with a Zomo MC-1000. I love the Zomo, buttons feel great, looks great under the mixer, etc. etc.......but the lack of pitch slider and jog wheel is killing me. I got creative and bound some of the 3rd and 4th deck functionality to cue and pitch (since I never…
02.07.2012 Denon SC3900 owners! Can you save cue points from the player itself to a usb stick?402.07.2012
For various nerdy reasons I don't plan to use usb sticks to store tracks or engine/rekordbox style software but I am interested in buying CD players and using cue points. The old CDJ1000 could save cue points to an SD card (and I'm assured the new CDJs can do this as well). Is this the case with…
