s4 good or no good? Posted on: 30.12.2010 by Shu Dietiker hi guys... I have been using the vci 100 foe years now.... do you believe the s4 replaces it in a good way? the vci is just so stable..... i mapped and programmed many things the s4 can do long before the s4 came out.... whats ur experience? any problem with jog wheel? and how do u carry it? i havent had it yet... thnxs moe
Carlee Pickard 30.12.2010	Originally Posted by JesC Couldfuzion try the NI site. I havent seen them anywhere local. So after you said it, I googled it once more, and couldn't find it anywhere. Then I googled "Maschine UDG Bag - California" and the first things that popped up were my community posts about it lol! And then after that this is what I found: http://www.guitarcenter.com/Native-I...40-i1551909.gc So they have a bag for Traktor, but not one damn one for the Maschine. I mean it could be a mistake and I could fit the Maschine in there, but the one off NI's website looks way cleaner. I also have a feeling if I find it at some other retailer, it'll be atleast $10 cheaper then off NI. Anyway lemme know what you guys believe as well, and sorry for hi-jacking your thread kind sir.
Carlee Pickard 30.12.2010	Originally Posted by JesC tis almost there, im down to the track drifting 1/8 on the phase meter That's nuts. I am going to try it out sometime soon, as I get more familiar with my tools. I wanna use it as a MIDI Fighter and plug it into my S4, which I hear a few people have done. JesC I like your setup man, jus curious though by any chance do you know where I can pick up the UDG bag for Maschine in Cali? Ohh, and back on topic, I love my S4.

Leeanna Ayla 30.12.2010	Originally Posted by JesC Ive been believeing about selling my VCI-100 SE (#5 of 100) Especially if they ever get Maschine integration fully nailed.

Cristian Carmona 30.12.2010	Originally Posted by moey2k2001 yeah but can u do things with the s4 like the vci? if the vci had a fader or jog wheel problem i would fix it within a few minutes... can u do this to s4? many people said it aint possible.... cuz u cant buy the parts right? Ill be honest a lot of people jumped on the S4 and didnt have much experience on how to troubleshoot gear. they wanted everything to be plug and play.

Shu Dietiker 01.01.2011	i am still kind of hesitating to buy the s4... cuz of the faders and replacement issues... i am not sure it is so stable as the vci although native does do very quality stuff,,,
Jerome Burruss 31.12.2010	Worth every penny. Although my VCI holds a special part of me, what a classic piece of gear .
Cristian Carmona 30.12.2010	its really hard to compare a vci-100 thats been out for many years to a s4 that has no more than 2 months on the streets and expected it to work 100% and replacement parts be avail at radio shack.
Shu Dietiker 30.12.2010	yeah but this is what i mean... u have a down side that u cant chnage the faders and etc... vci's are easy to repair and repplace... but where would u get parts for s4 anyways? native is asking to send it in if anything happens... what if u really fully rely on it? i personally love the vci and if something happens within minutes i can get the fix...
Cristian Carmona 30.12.2010	i dont believe they mind.

Charline Dye 30.12.2010	Very Good! Well thought out controller/software.
