S4 - What to carry it in
S4 - What to carry it in Posted on: 10.10.2010 by Julissa Serrone Aside from the case meant for it, how do you guys plan on transporting your S4. I'm looking for a cool looking packpack that it will fit in, withough having to drop major bucks. Was looking at one of the old UDG bags, but I believe it's about an inch too small. Any ideas? | |

| Alphonso Deitchman 04.01.2013 | I've been using the Gator for a while and have recently bought a Crane stand, it just fits in the zip section on the rear of the bag. Plenty of space for a 13-15" laptop in the front sleeve and the S4 fits snugly into the main section. Most headphones will fit into the front pocket - I had my HD215s in there before upgrading to the HD 25s. |
| Monserrate Rupnow 01.01.2013 | Is there's room for an S4, cranestand, and laptop in the Gator bag? Can't see if the crane will fit or not... |
| Wiley Pollastrini 26.12.2012 | I never did get around to making a part 2 on my mono bag with gear inside. I ended up picking up the udg traktor trolly for $99 on the NI website. With a crane stand, s4, external LaCie HD, 13" mbp, tma1's & cables I just outgrew the bag when my f1 came in. I'm now in the market for the x1 to pair with the setup for triggering the effects on decks c&d and the traktor trolly looks like its going to be the way to go. Plus the price was pretty outstanding for $99 and free shipping. I'm not sure what my plans for the mono bag are, if I keep or sell but I will give the djtt users first dibs if I decide to part with it. I will also try to get a video posted of the bag with gear inside and one of the trolly loaded up. |
| Dominique Caughill 19.11.2012 | I'm also looking at the Gator bag. Could someone be kind enough to take a photo of their S2 / S4 and Laptop in the bag loaded up just so I have an idea of what it can hold? It'd be much appreciated. |
| Oswaldo Appeldorn 08.11.2012 | Just because i didn't know about the ni bag i would love to find the link. |

| Oswaldo Appeldorn 08.11.2012 | JETPACK REMIX what you guys believe on that bag?! http://orbitconcepts.com/products/pr...h-battery-bank can it handle the s4? |
| Gertha Coprich 13.10.2012 | I am gigging and been traveling with this bag for awhile. It is solid. I carry it on a plane without an issue. |
| Candy Vardy 12.10.2012 | Hey guys, just a quick question. I've read this thread through and through, but I'm still not sure which would be the best new option for me. I currently have the 21" UDG backpack trolley which carries almost all my gear. It was good for a while but as my gear has grown so has my need for somethings more. I currently have: MBP 15" S2 + decksaver X1 + case F1 + case Crane stand Audio 2 + cables Headphones IEM's Bag with all cables 2 external hard drives. Small misc items ie, flashlight, USB's etc. So until I got my F1 almost everything was fitting if I packed it right, but now I need a bigger bag, lol. Especially since I will be adding a audio6/10 soon and TSP. So what do yo guys recommend will be a good choice for carrying all my gear, considering that I also fly a lot? I need something that will pass through the airlines, and be easy to carry. Thanks guys. |
| Twyla Hilst 12.10.2012 | Has someone tried the Traktor Trolley on ryanair airlines? thanks |
| Maisha Lemunyon 30.04.2012 | Cool, It's touted as economical but good. what do people usually pay for this thing? |
| Kristofer Krauel 30.04.2012 | Yeah that's the one. Had mine for nearly a year now. |
| Maisha Lemunyon 30.04.2012 | About to order a bag after perusing through this (very informative) thread - thanks guys. I'm leaning towards the Gator but I just want to confirm the exact bag DJTT members are raving about. Is it the Gator G-Club Control DJ Bag? http://www.zzounds.com/item--GATGCLUBCONTROL Thanks in advance guys. |

| Erica Charvet 26.02.2012 | Sorry to bring a dead thread back to life, but this bag is a perfect fit for the S4 and can commonly be found for under $100. Surprised I haven't seen it mentioned. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/acces...RWXGB&ZYXSEM=0 It has a ton of room for other things, as well. Can easily fit the S4, an Akai MPD32, and a X1 + a small laptop. |
| Eunice Dunneback 14.02.2012 | OK.. So after reading basically the entire thread I have narrowed it down to the following 2 bag: 1. DJTT S4 Mono Bag 2. Magma Digi Control XL Backpack Below is a list of items I would place in the bag: S4 X1 Audio 8 soundcard 15" Macbook Pro 2 X power supplies for Macbook assorted cables (USB & Midi) Crane Stand 2 pairs of headphones external HD Wireless Mouse I prefer a backpack style bag but I'm not sure the Magma Backpack can hold everything. I know the DJTT S4 mono bag can hold it all. Any opinions on choice would be greatly appreciated... |
| Wiley Pollastrini 12.01.2012 | i just got the mono bag today this thing is really nice! check out my review!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzGGkF9hIzM i made a thread about this in the review community check it out! throw any discussion about the bag in the thread that way if anyone has questions i can find em quicker then running through this thread if people have questions. http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=44537 |

| Kacey Lefevere 10.01.2012 | [QUOTE=IrishBlaggard;409439]the magma bag is more than double the price of the gator bag... magma bag = 105 - 125 euro (depending on what bag your looking for) http://www.thomann.de/ie/magma_digi_controlbag_xl.htm Watch out for the Magma Digi-Control Bag XL - The S4 is a VERY tight fit. I returned mine because it was so tight that damage to either the bag or controller seemed inevitable. Jon |

| Renita Windish 05.01.2012 | I was actually considering the mono bag v. The Gig bag. The mono bag is sweet! |
| Hailey Westen 05.01.2012 | the magma bag is more than double the price of the gator bag... gator bag = 59 euro http://www.thomann.de/ie/gator_gclub_control_dj_bag.htm magma bag = 105 - 125 euro (depending on what bag your looking for) http://www.thomann.de/ie/magma_digi_controlbag_xl.htm http://www.thomann.de/ie/magma_multi...iogigbag25.htm I've the gator bag and i love it... |
| Renita Windish 05.01.2012 | I'm really torn between these bags. I like the build on the DJTT bag, but I like the additional space of the Gig-Bag. They don't list the weight on that bag either. I'd like to carry my machine controller along with my 15" macbook and the S4 controller, which I can't do with the DJTT bag, but I'm willing to ignore that if the Gig-Bag is over the top heavy and such. Any thoughts on a comparison, as the price point is about the same? |
| Random X 03.01.2012 | I'm still really glad with my Magma Studio Gigbag25. Transporting my S4, S4 Decksaver, MIDIfighter, 15"MacBookPro, Pioneer HDJ-500, cables and powerpacks and still has tons of room left! |
| Wiley Pollastrini 02.01.2012 | true, thanks, ill look into that bag now. just a bummer had my eyes set on the mono bag. unfortunate that i was unable to see my grandparents until today and they were able to give me a card with some $ for christmas that i was using to pick this mono bag up, before the price hike. cue: johnny hates jazz - shattered dreams |
| Rosalie Novarro 02.01.2012 | if price is a concern i seriously suggest you check out the gator bag. i am VERY impressed with it. |
| Wiley Pollastrini 02.01.2012 | it figures the day i have the rest of the loot to finally order the mono bag the price skyrockets to 189. SOB. my loss looks like I'm going with the djtt bag. |
| Wiley Pollastrini 29.12.2011 | anyone happen to have any idea when the mono s4 bag will be going OFF sale from 149? i need to order one but I'm still debating what color knobs i want for my s4. trying some photoshop magic. i want to order everything at once. don't want to miss out on the price. |
| Rosalie Novarro 29.12.2011 | Yep got my gator bag and it is totally boss. Super heavy duty fabric and high quality all around. You won't be disappointed one bit with this bag!! |
