SolDios Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 ns6 is out of my price range what kind of bag could I get for the tt1 and be able to get away with it being carry on baggage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imadje Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 ^ i dont know about baggage allowances mate.but i'm considering bags/cases at the minute. In the past I have always insisted on a hard case as I have seen eqpt degrade v quickly on tour if in just a bag. This damage is often caused by knocks or squishing amongst other kit but seems to also come about just from shaking and rattling if not encased in good foam.But these controllers have no moving parts or delicate mechanisms to break. I guess that inside these units it's just pcbs so apart from physically knocking a pot or fader off I dont see much chance for damage.Still i normally figure better safe than sorry so am thinking on. and would love a bit of input from any electrical engineers, controllers developers, beta testers..Meantime i guess a standard off the shelf 61 key keyboard hard case would have about the dimensions of most midi controllers, although that is also to be confirmed.

eggssell Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 If you really care what others think then Get turntables and then you can give them all shit!Else just buy the best you can for what you can afford and that does what you want to achieve. We can give our opinions based on what we have experienced but in the end what are you wanting mate, and what can you afford. Then just do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolDios Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 ehh, not so sure id still be able to get away with taking it as carry on luggage. see we go to cairns alot, and from what ive seen, there's alot more/better clubs up there. oh well, I spose when I do that il just burn cd's and take em up there. :/ but it would have been nice to bring all my equipment.what do you guys think of the size of the ddj t1 though? you would need some serious real estate in the booth to put that down :/Edit!!!!: they just raised the price back up to 1400 on store dj :/ hopefully they will have an xmas special or something.

eggssell Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 As per lloyds comment. Nothing to do with scratching it was just a way to distinguish their products between dvs and software. What it means is if in the future you decide to buy a cdj or a tt you can use it in your S4 setup and use timecode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapFive Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 the S4 imo is actually a higher quality machine, what you need to think abotu sol is not "oooo i like the pretty colours.." but waht am i going to be doing in the future...if you want to stick to mobile DJing, i would say go the S4, it is more rugged, it is a better machine and it will help you in the long run because lets face it its made by traktor so it will flow in updated versions and will have more support from traktorif you plan to go into venue DJing then sol my man, the T1 is for you, if is EXACTLY like the pioneer CDJ set outs, the platters react the same as the 300/400, they have the same feel and size, and when you do go to a CDJ, the change will be seemless, where as if you had an S4, things will have to be re-learnt so you can flow as easily.so my man, the choice is yours happy choosing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 i dunno, the s4 looked like it was made from plastic, looks like a thing you would get from toyworld Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolDios Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 I think its aluminium painted black, at least I hope so.hopefully either dj warehouse, light sound or store dj will have the ddj t1 at under $1100 around end of year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
