saw it this morning,

this looks sweet and seems like its higher build quality than the S4

The one thing that really 'turned me on' to the NS7 and products like it was the motorized platter. Looks pretty neat though. Guess to each their own .

really interested in this bit of kit. although it's marketed as a Serato controller, they say they will bundle it with Traktor mappings so i assume it works for both - which is encouraging for Traktor users.

I think it looks like a really solid unit. I like it a LOT.

They need to get rid of the terrible silver jog wheels and, that thing will get more greasy and dirty than an S4.

That was my first thought.

suppose the ns6 is more of a portable solution.


the only thing i noticed about these controllers that's a little disconcerting is the lack of knobs for fx control.

Well it's not built for traktor.

Personally I really like it. I'd like to see more controllers designed for beat matching and the like.

hmmm i'm really interested in this.

anyone had a go on one?

any other threads about this?

specifically: i learnt on technics and only moved to cdjs when the cdj1000 landed and got its vinyl emulation ok. I'm no turntablist but the occassional transform, scribble or juggle get into my sets, and i need to be able to cut.
now i use traktor, controlled by cdjs, but using a hercules steel for fx, loops, hot cues etc.

so i guess i reckon this could be the first all round controller with reasonable vinyl emulation and enough buttons?

news?
