    Default Native Instruments Traktor Beta

    Gonna be diving in once I get out of the office today. Will post any finds etcetera in this thread. Who else is or has been diving into the beta? What have you noticed? How is the CDJ integration?






    ....on a side note, realized there is no traktor section under software, so not sure if this is in the right section.

    All good. Checked out the changes. Am more than happy with 2.1.1 for the time being.

    Seems the added features are in-line with what the people have been whispering around, that NI will open up it's ecosystem. I suspect other manufacturers will be added to the list soon after (Denon?).
    Will Pioneer CDJ's/mixers require a firmware update to work with this new features?

    I downloaded last night. After popping it open in FRHED, it looks like only the listed hardware has currently been added. I would love to see the Denon Prime mixer added (since it currently does not work with either Serato or Traktor currently). I did notice a huge drop in CPU load. So far I have ran it with my DJM 750 MK2 and an Audio 4. (sold my audio 10 almost a year ago now).

    I will have to get my hands on another pair of D2's to do a true comparison (looks like all the screen caps I have from previous versions were with D2's in use), but my CPU load bar hasnt even gone up past a quarter yet where it use to go past half while using DVS and effects.

    I found that the filter knobs on the Kontrol S5 and S8 are now internally mapped to "FX adjust" instead of "filter adjust". This implies you may be able to swap out each channel filter for a different effect in the future.

    Additionally, here are some of the VIP features found in 2.11.3:


    Elastique 3

    Looks like they're experimenting with a new version of the Elastique time stretching / pitch shifting algorithm.


    Deck Link

    All the references point to the ability to link decks, but it's not clear in what way they would be linked.


    Video Bridge

    There is only one reference to this (or video in general), so it's not clear what it would bridge with.

    Same one used in Denon's SC5000 player if I remember correctly. Impressive stuff. That will fix one of my biggest complaints with Traktor.
