New Traktor Controller soon? Please?

IMO the X1 is their best made controller and still has no direct competition/clones, whereas the S2+S4 are in need of a refresh if they want to stay competitive.

I'd take an SX over an S4 any day..

best $1K of the governments money i ever spent (nz dollars) .. mine have been abused, soaked in red wine, dropped. still going strong after nearly 3 years

Me personally, I would like to see larger platters to start. Someone also rumored about CDJ style controllers too without the CD player part, maybe with embedded timecode or good midi integration.

I've wanted this for years!

If you could set and trigger cue points and display waveforms on a "cdj" controller I would totally get at least one.

This. Ive been through a bunch of different controllers and have offloaded everything except the original X1 i bought 3 years ago. It's been around the world, dropped, spilled on and never missed a beat.

Be interesting to see what NI would do with the mk2 version.

N.I. could pull this off, i'm in the market for CDJs but will wait until Traktor 3 drops this year, i reckon they'll shake the game up with a Z4/Z5, Maschine integration and NI platter controllers

[kooper1980]

Now that NI are in the mixer game I think a single deck platter controller would be the next logical step. That way they can cater for pretty much every DJ's needs whilst still keeping the close link with Traktor. I'm surprised they haven't already released a Behringer PL-1 type controller.

It would be great for someone to release the mapping on here.

Why would you want an embedded timecode, isn't MIDI signals faster and more accurate? I'm using the Scratch A10 setup right now and experience a slight slight delay when i try to do things, that I have adjusted to ofc but still. Just don't see the point in an embedded timecode when it is a controller without CD-function in the firstplace?

Anyone that have used the DDJ-SX with a Traktor-mapping? DJTT seems to have a few good ones, but is it working nicely? I love the software, not a big fan on S2 and S4 though...

Platters are only good for pitch bend / search / cue , not for scratch. Slip / flux mode works, but some of the other SX features do not, can't remember exactly what though.

The DDJ-SX works best with Serato DJ (obviously).

Holy necropost.
