    Thanks for all the replies.

    I really like the idea of using my 1200s with the S4 but I want a smaller unit. I think I will get the S2 when my tax refund comes. (Unless I can a find a good used S4)

    I never thought about using an X1 controller with my 1200s. Currently Im not using any type of dj software, mp3s or use timecode vinyl so I would have to spend more money on a timecode vinyl system. I think the S2 will do the job of taking me to the next level. Later on I may upgrade to Traktor Scratch and look at other controllers, we'll see...

    And...

    I'd wait at least two - three weeks. From whispers I have heard a price reduction is coming on the S2. It will be around 350 ish.

    That's all I know and I'm not going to discuss how or who I found out about this from, it is confidential, nor will I answer any further posts on the subject. Simply trying to save a fellow DJ some $$$ / €€€ / £££.

    Cheers.

    Thanks for the heads up regarding the price. Hope it's true. And even if it's a software downgrade, I already own a full license for TP2. Been looking to upgrade from my Vestax TR-1 to something with a few more features. Fingers crossed.

    Thumbs down Should I...Shouldn't I? go from an S2 to an S4

    I am new dj and have an S2 for the last 3 months, and its great but I am thinking about upgrading to an S4. Is it feasible to do so..I can do a lot with the S2 but feel like I can do more the S4 since everything is laid out for you and I don't have to constantly press the shift buttons for everything. I have read both reviews. Portability is not an issue per se, as I am using it just for learning and not getting gigs yet as I want to practice a lot more at home in the meantime and just don't know...your opinions and thoughts are greatly appreciated by anyone.

    It is funny none of the vinyl aficionados are speaking up and saying, "How can you say getting a controller is going to the next level in DJing."

    If you want to mix with only two channels and have your hands tied with the sample decks, then go with the S2. If you want much more control of Traktor, go with the S4.

    You want the best FX jogs on the S4? Then try this mapping!

    Hehe...yeah. We're just beginning.

    Cool Thanks Scamo!

    Thanks man! I actually do want a little more control of Traktor and do some crazy things as well.
