07.04.2011		Love how people are saying this is an S4 killer, it's just not.
Matha Obray
07.04.2011		How can u see on that? Talk about MAJOR screen watching.

All the analyzed data (BPM, gain, artwork, info...) would be saved onto the USB device so you can just show up with your set on USB device to a club, bar, your buddie's place... and start rocking.

08.04.2011		cool - would really like to see some video.

There is a folder created on whatever drive you plug in that stores waveforms. The nice thing about this is that it doesn't mess with your ID3 tags. It also stores a full multi-color waveform in said file.

07.04.2011		any demo videos of this thing from Musikmesse yet?

06.04.2011		looks similar to my diy midi controller I'm designing (minus the jog wheels) heh

shame it doesn't have 4 channels... otherwise, looks very interesting

06.04.2011		It's nice to see lots of competition for our money. It will hopefully drive innovation and prices. Pioneer should take note that not everyone has 2000$ to spend on just a mixer alone.

Now how about some SCS.1 preset updates for like say Traktor Pro 2?
Yup, that is me from Skratchworx. And busy......to say the least. It is all worth it though- SCS.4DJ has been the most rewarding product I have ever managed. The software is solid, comparable to a computer solution and then some. The sync feature stands with the best.

As for SCS.1, the current preset works in T2, though I need to get my hands dirty and do some re-mapping of the TSI so the pitch fader doesn't move with platter movements. Sample Deck and the new FX are later, as for that we need to go in and do some actual firmware/DaRouter programming.

The FX on this thing are great. The Filter is a combo high/lowpass filter, the Flange can get down to crazy modulation times or do really gentle sweeps, the Delay is meaty and Slice.....I could go on for days about the uses. It is a combo sampler/glitch effect. You can grab a loop and then remix the sample within the loop with everything from minor blips to full on re-sequences with reverse, rapid pitch drops, etc.

One cool thing is that the "Slice" effect is sort of a sample deck by itself. You can set the length of the sample loop, then using the second knob, either have it be a straight loop or remix within a loop. There isn't a blend between that and the deck, but it is good if you want to do mashups with a loop rolling over the other deck and have crazy variations that are locked in with the other deck's BPM.

I wonder is the USB at the back just for syncing to a Lappie or midi out as well?
USB on the back is if you want to use it in MIDI mode as a MIDI controller.

06.04.2011		Actually, screw the twitch, for only 500 euro? This will make the s4 look like a child's toy!
Asha Kravetz
06.04.2011		For $500 to $650? Looks pretty awesome. Fierce competition between the twitch and the scs.4 ? Possibly!
Brock Ricapito
06.04.2011		I shat bricks, my jaw dropped.
built in software, no computer necessary, all the song just loaded onto it?
what has this world come to?!
This has potential to be an amazing piece of gear .
