Will you buy a Microsoft Surface Pro for playing Traktor?
Will you buy a Microsoft Surface Pro for playing Traktor? Posted on: 24.11.2012 by Len Lukawski Surface Pro with Windows 8 Pro3rd Gen Intel Core i5 Processor with Intel HD Graphics 4000 Internal Storage of 64GB, 128GB; 4GB of RAM Display: 10.6-inch ClearType HD Display with 1,920x1,080 pixels Length: 10.81-inches, width of 6.81-inches, depth: 0.53-inches, Weight: 2-lbs Front-and-rear-facing 720p HD cameras Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n and Bluetooth version 4.0 Battery: 42 W-h, including an additional 5 W-h USB for accessory charging) The base spec is supposed to retail for around $800. Let's give all parties the benefit of the doubt and assume (for the purpose of this thread) that Traktor will work on this unit. Would you consider replacing your laptop with this for playing out with Traktor? And please, let's not make this a Mac/PC thing. | |

| Trista Karle 09.04.2013 | Stay away from i3 you will be disappointed |
| Random X 09.04.2013 | LoLz at automated response remarks. |
| Doreen Schurle 09.04.2013 | I can't afford a Surface Pro, but I'll most likely be getting one of the i3 Windows 8 tablets in the near future... just waiting for a 13" to hit the market and I'll be all over it. |
| Trista Karle 08.04.2013 | Windows 8 Suprusingly in my experience so far is very hardware specific for running smoothly. It appears the higher end stuff running it runs amazing. But the sub 600 stuff is sketchy. Have a few zen books running 8 no issues except some company specific applications. My older i7 desktop run 8 pretty Good but video card driver resets itself sometimes and have to either reboot worst case but most the time just tell itto reset my dual display setup. I wonder if this might have more to do with my multi touch secondary display 22 inch multi touch view sonic. Maybe it goes into power save mode on its own and cases the issue don't know. That's my take on windows 8 using SSD and high end CPUs it's awesome sub par specs likely Garbage. |
| Emelina Chillson 08.04.2013 | If Traktor runs on it and I could afford it, I would buy one in a heartbeat. It would take up way less space. |
| Jefferson Grigor 08.04.2013 | I would stay away from anything running windows 8 in any format,only speaking from personal experience but my laptop brought 2 months ago has been nothing but trouble with running windows 8.I have always had windows as an operating system on all my pc's and laptops and it's been fine never had any problems ever but this version is full of glitches and bad updates Its a sony laptop with a good spec I run traktor and maschine on it fine but it seems to be a fragile system, with my latest problem being windows did update and then wouldn't recognise itself and kept saying that it had detected a virus which turned out to be one of its own apps. After pulling my hair out for days trying to get it to even load up to get to the desk top I have finally sorted it.I know it's not me as I work in a large factory and know of about 20 people I have over heard or talked to have had this and other big issues that really shouldn't be coming up. I am not an apple/ mac lover but will look towards one next time I purchase any computer based tech as have noticed the price in the uk of a new windows touch screen desktop pc compared to a 27 inch mac is so close now the competition is down to quality not the fact that one is vastly more expensive. Just my two pence but hopefully windows will iron these out and come to the table with something as smooth as windows 7 was. |
| Farrah Manygoats 08.04.2013 | Lol, that exchange with Diana was hilarious. I believe it's safe to say we won't be seeing the Surface reviewed here anytime soon... |
| Marla Ballan 08.04.2013 | u could controll traktor with a dj controller too, i believe if you play at a club, i believe it would be nice, because the surface is more portable than a laptop. |
| Lina Rawie 03.12.2012 | I would like a hybrid Windows 8 Pro laptop/tablet, but not specifically for Traktor as I can't see NI optimising the UI for touch screen use. I'm interested to see what the Clover Trail devices are like though. |

| Karen Lemkau 25.11.2012 | I have been playing around with VNC loaded on my iPad and my PC and controlling the PC running Traktor through the iPad. It's a cool experience. You still need a PC or laptop running Traktor but it's cool to run the software this way. |
| Tera Baragan 25.11.2012 | Why not just get a regular laptop? Ive been using my g6 for almost a year now and its awesome Click Hereeeeeeee |
| Edwina Fagel 25.11.2012 | If you could freely switch things around in Traktor GUI then I would love to use it. Just two track decks for the most of time and browser mode for looking music. Also, you could place it flat on the desk so you wouldn't look like a another dude looking at his emails. |
| Emanuel Kepics 25.11.2012 | Just switched to a laptop with a 1920x1080 display. It's a great resolution for a crowded Traktor GUI. I use the laptop's keyboard for all sorts of things so I can't see myself switching to a tablet. |
| Kenya Zaretsky 26.11.2012 | as long as traktor gui is not optimized for touch screen i don't see any benefit in using a tablet like this. |
| Latoria Kavulich 25.11.2012 | nope. |
| Rebbecca Fennell 25.11.2012 | no but i may buy one for reason. |
| Nedra Fresneda 24.11.2012 | I'm not really comfortable with displays smaller than 13" tbh (even at higher resolutions). I want to be able to use it comfortably without having to look like a "traktor dj" whenever i need to look at the screen. Other than that, specs look decent enough. |
| Len Lukawski 24.11.2012 | I have just pinged the Surface PR team to see if they will send us a review unit. |
| Elizabet Sledz 24.11.2012 | Well it looks like it's running faster specs than my Macbook air, so performance shouldn't be an issue. My only concern would be how much Bus power is available on the device. At the moment, I can run all of my devices without the need of a Powered Hub, but I doubt the surface would have enough power for that. It's just a minor nitpick, I'd be super interested in running on it, or even running it as a secondary device for running Maschine or something like that (Or even a touch based sampler), taking workload off your main computer. I'd be really interested to see how it runs |
