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?

LOL i rememeber making a mock up of a 4channel controller for Traktor and you guys posted it on the Traktor Facebook.

I had to explain that to a certain person at NI... Thats when i was first told about the S4 and i decided i should stop talking about 4 channel controllers..

That's better than carrying it exposed. Whatever works u know?! I'll have to stick with carrying it in its original s4 box until the flight case for it becomes available somewhere.

I had my first gig with the S4 last evening and I didnt have anything to put it in, so I cut down the brown delivery box it came in so it fit the foam inserts from the NI box fit snuggly and added some electrical tape over the whole lot and a few stickers.

Pretty dodgy I know but it worked and I dont believe too many people saw me arrive or leave with it!!

Would this fit an S4?

damn..
i just want a nice looking bagpack to put all my stuff including the S4 inside. i'm carrying it right now with my mixers bag (rockbag), which doesnt protect it well imo.
i tried NI's flightcase and man this thing is heavy.

After DJ Strategy's review of the Magma Bag its now off the table for me.

He says its very uncomfortable to carry and if its packed full stuff pokes through and it doesnt offer much padding for the s4 on the sides.

Totally back to the drawing board.

I gonna ask NI if they plan to make a bag with someone like UDG.
There was a rumour.

The S4 is actually wider than a 1200. Just put my S4 on top of my mk5.

When I went to the GC show in brooklyn, Shiftee told me the S4 was the same size as a 1200...Do you guys believe it will fit in a 1200 case?

Something like this: http://prodjcase.stores.yahoo.net/eurlitturcas.html

Until I can get a chance to check out the case in person I believe I might just cover the box it came in completely in stickers (looks cool and disguises what's in the box while carrying it in public) and use that for now. Also its lightweight, protects it pretty good, and has a perfect little handle!

when looking for bags, you need to look for "internal dimensions". The presence of 20'' in the general specs published on the majority of sites usually means "damn, that one won't fit it".

^ don't believe it'll fit. Those specs are gonna be super tight around the S4 and offer no protection. It don't believe it'll fit with since the top is not perfectly square.

Like the VCI softcase. I have one its ace.

Its going in the VCI sale next week.

VCI 100SE/Vestax Backpack inc Softcase.

Why am i telling you this now...???
Leeanna Ayla

I believe I'm going to get the flight case then make a basic zippered bag for it that will have foam padding on top and bottom to carry the S4 in a regular backpack if I need to.

I'm believeing the bag will look a little like this.



Except the lid will come off I believe and the foam will be two pieces. It's just in my head now so who knows.

Anyone here going to get the Flight case? I'm waiting (not that I have a choice anyway) to purchase the bundle but if people believe that another bag would be better then I will just get the S4.

Message from Eric Ba at Guitar Center:
Thank you for your recent inquiry.

I do apologize about that. The interior is 20"W x 14"H x 9"D. Allot of the manufactures use the interior of the case or cases in their descriptions.

So now the dude at Musician Friend sends me:

Thank you for your recent inquiry. The dimensions listed online for the Musician's Gear Professional Music Gear Bag are the outside dimensions. I believe that the Native Instruments TRAKTOR KONTROL S4 DJ Performance System would not quite fit comfortably inside it.

Maybe both these dudes are full of shit?

Perhaps the Novation bag is an option?

Someone got a flightcase already. It appears that the sliding tray isn't in the way on the eq's.

If those are the real dimnesions of the interior for 85.00 I might give it a test. Currently I just the box it came in to store it in and take it places.....wack!

I'll keep you guys posted.

Ooh that looks close... could be a winner. I recomend a piece of foam to cover the S4 as it looks quite deep and you dont want it moving around to much. Not hard to get foam though and maybe even a towel would do just to protect the jogs.

It might be to much of a squeeze at 20" long but maybe just snug enough:
