So I have a Kontrol X1 and I'm replacing my bcd3000 with some sort of new controller(s). I'm oddly intrigued by the maschine if only to screw around with some sort of production though I don't really understand the whole thing, I think I'd start out by making some drum loops to mess around with in my mixes. I have a few questions about it.
1) From what I read about maschine it is going to need some extra software for it to work. what would be good for a beginner and how much would it cost
2) I've got about 1600 US to spend. what controller would go well with my current x1 and a maschine for just traktor (no scratch yet) I'd like some jogwheels that are actually functional and a pretty decent crossfader and 4 deck support but none of that is hard and fast so just give me what you think would be a good way to spend my money.
Thanks in advance and if it helps for the advice I play drum and bass and a smattering of house and breaks.
