I can't see the downside of a collab with Pioneer on some XDJ-Traktor controllers. Integrate all of the D2 features into a hybrid controller and go halvies in the production and profit

Sometimes it doesn't have anything to do with being lazzy.Quote:

For me for example DJing is not my main Job and I guess most of us are doing it as Hobby and can't live from it.
So I can't spend 40h a week on it because of regular Job and private Situation (Sick mother with alzheimer in an hospice and sick father having cancer issues I have to take care of them as I am a Single child).
Djing is my Passion and my Retreat from crazy "Everyday Business"
I started 16 years ago with CDs and naturally continued, I started converting my CDs over a year ago and when I make a session I make 2-3 dozens at a time, but with a collection of over 1500 CDs it takes a lot of times.
My Idea was just that several Brands (Pioneer, Gemini, Numark, etc...) have "Hybrid" products on the market but None is 100% Traktor compatible, you always have to find the best mapping. My Pioneer XDJ-R1 was sold and adverted "Made for VDJ Use" so I thought it would be 100% compatible...well haven't found a mapping by now that covers all the functionalities of the Controller on VDJ.
So my thoughts were that if such a "Hybrid" Controller would come out the house of Software & Hardware Producer (in that case NI) it would for sure be a Plus for those old fashionned guys like me....and believe me there is a market for it.
I'm like you (goodbytes)
I'm hoping Traktor integrates a good streaming app like Spotify.
I really like the option of having millions of tracks on hand without having to keep updating my library every week.
I haven't had a feature released yet by NI for Traktor that even has been useful for me since about 2012. Traktor should have released a Z4 a long time ago instead of the JAM and other controllers.
Also, unless you are playing a a very consistent tempo I do not see the point in using STEMS/2.11.1, when I could just use 1 shots. The remix decks should be unlocked for mapping already and I would love to see a better mapping window, resizeable, easier, etc.
Errrrr.... we have been able to make remix decks almost fully for quite some time now (except slot color and key), same goes for a resizable mapping window.Quote:

Right. I read that post.... like.... is this 2014? lolQuote:
