I can beatmatch with serato or traktor without even listening to the songs. It's easy once you know what you're watching for; both programs give excellent visual cues (though they are very different). Whether that's a good or bad thing is another discussion ;)

Haha freakin cdj 1000's have bpm readouts so i think us as digital dj's can use the tools given to us

CDJ1000 (upto mk3 anyway) aren't good enough to use on their own, they will only give you the ball park BPM, without being able to beat match on them you'll still train wreck if you rely solely on their BPM reading.

Updatage finally finished my setup :D:DD:D:D:D:D:D:D:D just found a piece of wood on the side of the road today that looked perfect for my top plate to make everything nice and clean, only thing i need now is timecode support for the S4, not the best photos camera's being repaired so this was taken with my mates phone. for some reason i keep getting failed upload :/

I just picked up this TC for $60, nice addition to my SCS3S. Completely custom maps allow for 4 deck or 2 deck two sample deck control. I can control all 4 FX units from either the TC or the SCS3M, or the SCS3D's for that matter. I've got all for vertical sliders on TC set up as Volume for decks A-D as I have pitch control on the 3M or 3D's. Decks A & B use main EQ area on TC, C & D are accessible either on TC or 3M/3D's, Loop recorder functions in a few different spots, browsing and loading in a few areas, Transport for 4 decks on TC, individual scratch for each sample decks in two different areas. The only thing left to map is custom views to toggle between clock/main record and FX units.

So for sake of vanity, have you given thought to just adding another couple SCS 3D controllers to keep things all "the same" so to speak?

I was under the impression that you could add more units into that system. As far as cost is concerned, I could understand then prerogative of waiting. But IMO with the other controller... it just LOOKS like it doesn't fit.

Really interesting mapping and possibilities you got going though, seriously.

My current setup :)
