Hi Guys,

I've found a very interesting article at a Hungarian DJ's website how you can connect CDJ 850 and DJM 900 NXS and NI TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO sw only via USB and more. See http://www.djbear.hu/en/technical/co...nd-traktor-usb

What's your opinion of that? Have you ever tried that setup?

Thanks a lot for the info.
I double checked and asked Dj Bear again. He showed me that this setup really works with CDJ 850 decks too. I don't know how or why but you can check it out based on his description.

The 850s will still function as Traktor controllers but the integration and precision doesn't come close to the HID of the 900s and 2000.
With HID you get full track info on the CDJ screen including a waveform, BPM, track time, full playlist info etc. Basically everything you need to be able to close the laptop screen and mix purely on the hardware in front of you. Jog wheel performance will also be much tighter using HID rather than MIDI.

If you already have 850s, Serato would probably be a better option as it has HID integration with the 850s, whereas Traktor does not.
