i slapped up a comparison in some goofy paint program i got on my computer. (using the size of the jogs as a scale reference.)
hopefully is not going to be too big

if anyone can make a better comparison pic please do :)
true - but this is for itch and not SL ofc. only rane can make scratch units for SL i think?Quote:

yup i know it's for itch but the main point is that NI is trying cutting away endorsing traktor on controllers from other companies as well as ceasing their scratch certification on mixers on most companies as well. i heard from local supplier that NI is coming up with more range of their own hardwares and stuff. i've yet to try serato itch. hmmmmm would'nt mind trying out itch though.Quote:

ah sure. i can see why they would i guess, now they're getting into the hardware game so much, but it's probably short sighted and will let serato gain market share.Quote:

with all these new changes maybe we'll be able to buy itch in future? the intro thing anyway?
heh i don't think the intro would be a good idea as i think the interface would be too simple for us but the twitch is very tempting. if i ever wanna try using itch then i guess it be using twitch. but very tempted with twitch. maybe we can try it off from friends who owns itch related controllers or something. somehow for itch 2.0 seems good. but then im so used with traktor and how much traktor can somehow using itch seems like a downgrade in terms of customization to my own workflow.Quote:

Genuinely exciting, you need those extra buttons.
If DJTT can make it HD (jogs and faders) a la VC100 1.4FW then we are in business :)
wow... just watched the video that chrismac just posted here (and then deleted?) which is on the blog... this controller is pure midi porn. first controller that would make me consider shelling out that sort of cash. looks like is has soooo much more potential than the S4. still looks like a massive beast tho :p wonder how it'll fair with space issues in clubs... same as the S4 i guess?Quote:
