CBG Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Hey guys. Going to make a gradual shift to a DVS system with the twin 1200s and two CD players for a bit of alternation. Not prepared to go fully digital.Also Im hoping to get a drum machine as I am an ex drummer and have a great sense of rhythm.Im thinking of going with Traktor Scracth Duo and grabbing the NI Maschine http://www.djwarehouse.com.au/cat/index.cgi/shopfront/view_product_details?category_id=7892&product_id=1219733 for obvious reasons. What do you guys think? Any tips? - Additional hardware- Serarto or Torq- Live for samples?- Traktor Duo or Proetc Quote
Skank Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 serato is boss its industry standard just like pioneer is to cdj's and you cannot go wrong Quote
CBG Posted July 22, 2009 Author Posted July 22, 2009 Yeah but its more expensive. Will the Maschine still work well with Serato.I learnt pretty much everything about serato tonight... love it. 1.9 looks mad, apart from there being no pitch control on the 4 secondary decks Quote
Genetic Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 i think anything that can be controlled by midi can use the maschine Quote
Skank Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 im still using serato on its factory verson i really need to up date i think Quote
CBG Posted July 22, 2009 Author Posted July 22, 2009 You should, its free. Providing you have a legit version. Quote
Skank Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 lol yeah i know its free its just i havnt ever had a problem with v1 but i just upgraded and wow im gunna have a bussy few days gettin to know the new software the sampler is awsome Quote
CBG Posted July 22, 2009 Author Posted July 22, 2009 yeah man. i read all about it. Check out the 'loop roll', thats been made an actual feature. 6 bank sampler. But no independent pitch no control for the banks... not cool. Means you have to adjust the pitch of the primary decks, which we all know is a big no no. Quote
tubby Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 are you planning to run just the tt's through the dvs and use audio cd's in the cd deck? or want time code on all 4 channels? or run a couple of channels internally in the software via midi, on top of the time code channels? do you want effects? Quote
Skank Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 thats shit no pitch control the sample should at least snap to the tempo of the track playing, its doin my head in Quote

I ahve some effects on my mixer allready. Quote
CBG Posted July 23, 2009 Author Posted July 23, 2009 Virtual DJ FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!lol. No thanks. More used for MIDI controllers such as Behringer DDM4000. Quote
