Ion Audio DISCOVER DJ - why do i like this?? saw this on skratchworx... the Ion Audio DISCOVER DJ http://www.skratchworx.com/news3/comments.php?id=1311 http://www.ionaudio.com/discoverdj i don't know why i like it... if mapping worked out (and was super cheap), it seems like it would be a great lightweight/portable basic controller... | |
| 05.12.2009 | new video and review from Skratchworx: http://www.skratchworx.com/reviews/discoverdj.php http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEhDEZ6xi50 I got mine in the mail, and I have to say that it's quite nice for a cheap piece of gear. It's what I expected, but the jogs are better than expected. I'm currently trying to map the jogs to Traktor... a little difficult at the moment... |
| 27.11.2009 | some videos: promotional video from ION http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDFrG1GiHFE At 5m:30s you see this guy talk a bit about his newly purchased Discover DJ unit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VU6mMSV26sw Person measuring the unit (seems to be about 19" x 9") http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEBEhJqwJcM On the djay and VDJ fourms, it looks like the unit spits out some type of MIDI message... http://community .djay-software.com/viewtopic.php?id=537 http://es.virtualdj.com/community s/11662...ontroller.html mine will arrive sometime next week... for $87 i couldn't resist. |

I need a sharp cut in on the the x-fader, and i haven't yet found the option to adjust the cut contour (went through the manual, mv community , google)**... I was also not impressed by the interface... for me, i would hope that the unit spits out standard MIDI commands for Traktor, but, I'm unsure if I want to find out for $100 (plus i'm unsure if I'd be able to return it, as the box contains software)... skratchworx says that the platters are awesome... http://www.skratchworx.com/news3/comments.php?id=1318 ** NOTE - according to the Mixvibes community , you can adjust the x-fade curve but there's a catch: http://community .mixvibes.com/viewtopic....r+curve#p62952
this is already featured in mix vibes.
but it is not adjustable over the gui. you must mapped the command on the keyboard or a midi button |
| Dolores Sefcovic 11.09.2009 | Hmmm if this is cheap enough it might work out for the jogwheels for the set up I am trying to buy to transition to. Looking to get 2 akai mpd24's and a korg zero 4 but am worried about not having jog wheels. |
