Dilemma! Posted on: 08.12.2010 by Shawnta Riccelli Ok here is my issue and i felt that the S4 community would be the best place to ask this. My issue is this coming christmas, my parents offered to help pay for an upgrade from my original controller (Algorithm Spin, its an average beginner controller) to a better one. I felt it was a little hasty to just buy the S4 since there is a sale on traktor on djdeals.com and i was wondering what would be the better choice, buy the S4 or buy traktor pro and another controller. Thanks!

I believe we should start an online s4 therapy group, now we only need a guru that can lead the way http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT5VQ...eature=related

robin loo 09.12.2010	Originally Posted by Coldfuzion Honestly - that's the smartest thing i've heard in a while. It's extremely true. There must be something you have set in your mind. Like some sort of idea of what you want. If you do have something in mind (like for example the S4) and want to know the pros / cons in our opinions that would probably be a better post / question! I'm going to be using your comment in my signature weltraumpapst, quoted ofcourse! If you don't mind, that is! hehe.. go for it i'm honored..

Thanks! I am no expert, but there have been quite a few threads on choosing controllers (not including the above mentioned deal) and the general consensus is pick up the S4. As I said though, the "general" consensus is that, it's not how everyone views it. I am a beginner as well, just started at the end of the October and I dove in and picked up an S4 and I love every second of using it.

Shawnta Riccelli 09.12.2010	Alright, what i am looking for is for a controller that is very reliable and robust (which i have heard about the S4, trust me, I was reading every review and preview possible!) but still easy enough to be able to learn at my low skill level. I'm not saying I'm a first timer, I've done a party here and there, tried my hand at mashups (I'd rather not share), and this style of learning has been going on for about 2 years but I wan't to make this hobby into something I can not necessarily make a lavish life off of but as a way to make money on the side and be proud of what i am doing. Sorry for getting side tracked but this is what i want and don't want in a controller/software Want: 1)Up to date and compatible with most midi devices 2) To work with my Kaossilator(Been my fun jam for years!) 3) Something that won't break or need to get sold for a better model 4) Allows for expansion into other styles of music Don't Want: 1) A controller much bigger than the rest of my set-up( I don't like being flashy) 2) Sticky jog-wheels (Can't loosen) 3) Unnecessary features Sorry for such a long post but I felt like making it so long since then I couldn't forget anything and have everything in one place, Thanks DJTT!

Peggy Gabrielson 09.12.2010	S4 would be a sweet xmas present! If you are going to use traktor you may as well get the controller designed specifically for it?
