Hi all, the faithful laptop that has been going for 5 years is failing me - cost to repair outweighs cost of new model... Main use is browsing, basic documents and Traktor Pro on a Reloop Controller - also about 5 yrs old now but going strong (apart from some dodgy buttons).
I'm torn between a straight replacement laptop to continue and an upgrade to Traktor 2, or going for something different and using a tablet with a new controller as I've read that tablets can't support the power required for the controller over a long period - 5+ hrs...
My DJing style is fairly straightforward - I prefer the let the music speak for itself, if a change to the controller comes it will require basic effects and 4 channels (as I've found 2 channel controllers just irritating using the C/D decks)... I do however prefer jogwheels as I don't use sync - old fashioned I know
Is there something out there that is the future (and doesn't look like a toy) or is going down the reliable laptop route and sticking with the reloop the best idea for the time being?
Cheers
