I don't know, I can't really get into his productions on their own but seeing him live was pretty incredible and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Same goes for a lot of the m-nus guys.

I'm not going to get into this debate, other than saying it's something you really have to experience more than listen to.

06.06.2012		It just makes sense, two X1's for FX/transport/browsing, one F1 on Deck C and the Maschine on deck D. Done, perfect. You have access to all your pre-made loops, can play and mix your tracks on A&B, and on D you can jam out live on the Maschine.

Perfect balance for the modern DJ

06.06.2012		yeah there is. He used to have 3 though? for what I am not sure... my guess is presets and browsing :dunno:

It looks like he might have taken out a X1 and replaced it with an F1. I hope they'll release him jamming on it.
Bunny Sockel
06.06.2012		The way I would use my maschine is to have it exactly like dubfires because I want to bring more of a live performance to my dj sets
Georgina Schatzman
06.06.2012		yeah, if anything I see him going with two X1's, one F1 and a one Maschine.

06.06.2012		The remix decks play prerecorded samples....so yes you can load in drums samples and play them on the fly with the remix decks like playing the pads live, but maschine is a sequencer and if its sequenced with traktor you can make up a drum pattern on the fly that maschine will record and play in time.

Also I cant imagine them getting rid of the X1's. X1's are perfectly usable for Hawtins and Dubfires style of Djing. That's why Hawtin got rid of the Xone-1d's.

Plus I'm sure there is some vested interest in Native instruments from both of them.
Yeah I agree, what I meant was on the road I believe there set up will be F1 X2 + X1 X2 + X Zone DB4 = Fun mine is similar or will be. thanks for the link bro..

I have been asking myself if I should by two F1's as I only have just the one at the moment but my answer is clear now i'm of to get another F1 now..... Now I must find a similar Richie Hawtin Video anyone got any links...

05.06.2012		Mike (DJ Endo) his tech guy who travels with him developed Ali's setup.. he frequents this board, maybe he can give the definative answer... Mike is very knowledgable when it comes to all things Traktor. I was having an issue once when the X1 first came out and he fixed the issue for me in one simple answer... If he see's this thread I am sure he will chime in.

This is what made me get one and I use it in the same way now.

It's more useful for the step sequencer- most of the people I see using it (for techno, minimal, and house at least) don't seem to have any prearranged patterns and use it to improvise drum fills in ways you can't with the remix decks. Dubfire for example has a group loaded with claps, a group loaded with hi hats, rides, etc. then just uses step mode and inputs patterns during the set. Hawtin does the same.

05.06.2012		i might have to ditch the x1 and pick up the k2 looks like a better unit to me
Nedra Fresneda
05.06.2012		I didn't get a chance to play with one (yet). Still:

http://www.djranking s.com/2012/05/1...-heath-xonek2/

A soft plastic outer shell encases a coated metal faceplate on the K2. All of the nutted pots and rotary encoders represent professional build quality, and the nutted construction of the knobs means the the inner circuit board is protected more against outer trauma to the knobs. The four 60mm-throw faders possess the signature Allen & Heath smoothness, and their tops are indented generously, making them a pleasure to use.
In addition, the 30 rubberized buttons feel fantastic. They are soft-touch LED rubber buttons with a click, yet they are firmer and feel more robust than the looser buttons on the Kontrol X1. In short, despite the plastic casing, Allen & Heath maintains its usual high standard of build quality on the Xone:K2.

05.06.2012		Just had to add to this, Most of the time Dubfire will use 3 X1's. (Not sure why) , But i don't know if he has started using the K2 yet.
Bunny Sockel
05.06.2012		oh and padi is the k2 better built than the x1
Bunny Sockel
05.06.2012		okay thanks i have been looking into using maschine as a live input in traktor just wanted to know how the pros did it
Romelia Stankard
05.06.2012		He's using the Maschine software and the step sequencer for drum loops.
Nedra Fresneda
05.06.2012		The first. He uses a pair of X1 to control traktor (not sure if he jumped on the K2 wagon)
