CDJ 850s and traktor pro
CDJ 850s and traktor pro Posted on: 19.10.2012 by Emilia Dielmann So I came across this super great deal on two 850s for $1000. Now my question to you guys is, should I get them and hope NI will support HID , or just opt out and jump on 900s instead , although that's going to set me back another $1k. What do you guys believe, all suggestions are appreciated. | |

I know its more money..... but it honestly may not be a bad idea to buy a scratch upgrade that includes a soundcard such as the Audio 4/6/8/or 10. I believe you can get a copy of Traktor, Audio 6, and Scratch upgrade for right around $275-300 at Guitar Center. I say this because not every club will have HID compatible CDJ's. Meaning if you plan on playing out on the clubs gear through Traktor and the club only has say a DJM-800 and CDJ 1000's (a LOT of clubs have this set up or older) your not going to be able to just stroll in with your laptop and plug away and be good to go. |

Virgie Igler 20.10.2012 | $1000 for two 850s is amazing. The new firmware for the 850s makes timecode control TIGHT, and I mean really tight. You can still use them in HID in sera to, but with Traktor you'll only be able to use them in midi for the time being. I've heard rumours that after the Z2 is release that the 850 will receive HID support and that it's in the pipeline. But nobody can confirm. I've been using my 850s with traktor in timecode for the past two years and they've been awesome. I can also get familiar with rekordbox and CDs on them as well. 99% of the time when I spin i'll be using traktor, so I didn't want to shell out more money for 900s. I suggest that if you're mostly looking to use Traktor, save your money and don't get the 900s, just get the 850s. A midi controller will provide an OK control with the jog wheels, but timecode IMO is the best, and next best is HID which is basically equivalent to timecode. Personally at the moment my computer only has two USB ports and I hate having to use a USB hub, so using the CDJS in timecode saves me from having to require 4 USB slots. I just need one slot for my Audio 4 and another for my X1. I'm going to purchase the Z2 at which point I would love to have HID because then I could just plug into the Z2 hub, but it's really not that big of a deal if I still have to use timecode. |
Kristofer Krauel 19.10.2012 | Thats a great deal for 850's. If it was me i'd buy them. Very capable cdj's. |

Cassidy Galindez 19.10.2012 | Why get CDJs for Traktor? It's not the only option, as I have recently learned myself. Check out the Denon SC2000. Significantly cheaper, and holds all the same functionality if you are using TP anyways. |
