09.04.2011 Torn | 5 | 09.04.2011 |
I dj'd 10 years ago of course on vinyl, life happened, and it's always been calling me back. I've been waiting on the digital technology to mature, but just love the feel, sound and process of buying a physical record. But, vinyl prices have shot up so high. I really like the boutique… | ||

05.04.2011 DDM4000 Owners | 20 | 09.04.2011 |
I have been plugging away at a mapping for my new DDM4000 and I have been wondering how I will route the audio. Does the DDM4K work as a soundcard in MIDI mode or am I still going to need to route the speakers and audio thru the DJ IO that I own? If anyone has an answer thanks in advance. | ||

08.04.2011 APC40 Cue Response in Traktor | 5 | 07.04.2011 |
When I press once a hotcue or cue it starts on beat with no issues.

Sometimes when I trigger… | ||
