DionDJ Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Thanks DF - they are good fun! I do have to drag myself away from them constantly! Quote
lloydc Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Lloyd - loving the 1600.... ping pong & beat break effects are tops agreed... I also find myself using the filter more and more Quote
SolDios Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 My setup while im in cairns, kinda cut down :/I can still practice my phrasing though Quote
DionDJ Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Ok so at risk of sounding like a complete idiot, can you explain to me what the boxes are on each side of your laptop. Im still learning of all the different combinations and ways of djing. Quote

Im still learning of all the different combinations and ways of djing.on the left is an audio 6 or 8, which is an external soundcard use for time code setups, on the right, im not to sure since obviously sol took that photo with the tv remote Quote
Hobberz Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 One on the right is an X1 Kontrol. Lets you browse tracks, select loops, Hot Cues, effects, etc etc Quote
DionDJ Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Thanks lads! I guess with using these controllers and programs like Traktor the beat matching and transitions would be seamless? Quote
Lurk6r Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Thanks lads! I guess with using these controllers and programs like Traktor the beat matching and transitions would be seamless?Beat matching yes, theres sinch button. Transitions, no, you still have to plan it. Quote
Hobberz Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 You dont have to use sync but it is there for the people that want to cheat themselves. Quote
DionDJ Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Cool! :toughguy:Id like to play around with different types of gear eventually.Nice one Sol-D! Quote
SourceRaver Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Think of the X1 as just like a keyboard and mouse for controlling software. Instead of keys it has knobs and buttons that are more suited to dj'ing software. Quote
lloydc Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Cool! :toughguy:Id like to play around with different types of gear eventually.Nice one Sol-D!you realise that you practically have an audio8 soundcard built into your mixer, right? Quote

But I was more talking about controllers / programs, but for me at this stage I love the hands on hardware! Quote
lloydc Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 your mixer is also a controller, but I would highly recommend a kontrol x1 if you got traktor Quote
DionDJ Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 No Traktor yet, but Definately want to explore those options at some stage. Quote
Cupe Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 on the left is an audio 6 or 8, which is an external soundcard use for time code setups, on the right, im not to sure since obviously sol took that photo with the tv remotealmost spat water all over my monitor Quote
DionDJ Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Nice setup Ganz! Digging the duff bro! Ha! Quote
