Traktor Scratch with CDJ's and turntable
Traktor Scratch with CDJ's and turntable Posted on: 29.04.2011 by Alisa Neuder First of all I resident in a club that is kitted with 2xCDJ2000, DJM 800. The owner has some turntables collecting dust that I would like to start incorporating into my sets. I bring in my own computer and X1 and use Traktor Pro. I use the sound cards from the CDJ's.Now what I would like to do is run a 4 decks using 2 timecode vinyls and the CDJ's. Also am looking at another X1. I would like to use the CDJ's for deck A&B and vinyl for C&D. Is this possible? Is there a better way and what sound card am I looking at? Have done lots of research but I can not quite come up with an answer or decide if this is really the way I would like to go. Any advise, comments or input would be great. Thanks | |

| Alisa Neuder 29.04.2011 | It's a bit of cash whatever route I take but that does sound like the best option. I just have to decide whether I will get the functionality out of TSP to warrant spending all that money. Will sit of it for a while and see what I come up with. Thanks for the responses |
| Tatum Ansaldo 29.04.2011 | yup. The scratch upgrade is pretty steep though, you might do best to buy the TSP2 hardware package and then sell your current copy of TP rather than buying an audio 8 and then following the upgrade path. |
| Alisa Neuder 29.04.2011 | I believe Audio 8 is the way I will have to go, for what I want I don't believe I will need Audio 10. I am using Traktor Pro at the moment. I realize I will have to switch to Traktor Scratch. I just do not want to loose any functionality that I currently have with Pro. Hoping all I have to do is switch to scratch, invest in a sound card and timecodes, plug it all together and then have 4 decks. 2 controlled by CDJ's, and 2 controlled by vinyl. Guess I am going for a best of both worlds approach |
| Harland Filipponi 29.04.2011 | Are you using Traktor Pro, or Traktor Scratch Pro? You may need the latter to achieve what you want. |
| Ralph Alderette 29.04.2011 | yeah, the Audio8 dj can support 2 vinyl and 2 cdjs. The newer Audio10 can do all 4 vinyl or whatever combo you'd like |
