djing with all 4 sample decks

[BradCee]

Thought i found a quick way round prep... sample packs. Loops are there, BUT have to sort messed up grids/bpm reads o_O

Got a fairly fluid vci map for using it, and a keyboard map for creating/fine tuning samples from traktor library. Enjoying the spontaneous jamming, but without any known tunes in there, it sounds a bit self indulgent

Very interseted in your result.

shoot us one of your vids when done

[BradCee]

for anyone still intrigued, and that hasn't seen it yet, i've uploaded a mix on soundcloud

Thanks for the article on the blog, I found it interesting and very inspirational. Hope you'll make a video to illustrate it. Thumps up.

This.

I might have to try this in Ableton soon. :U

I guess I missed this when it first got posted.

I'm not saying anyone is wrong, as there are a lot of ways to do things.

But what could possibly make doing something like this in Traktor better/easier/etc. than doing it in Ableton Live? I mean…that's what Ableton was made for.

All the loops in the article are downloadable again. Kind of neglected Soundcloud as haven't had much to upload recently...

Working on some new stuff though

Personally I've never understood why people would want to DJ with ableton and clips

+1 if you're only a DJ.
When you got your own productions, hence samples with parts of the track (lead, bass, drums etc), it makes much more sense.

I still can't figure out what the benefit of Traktor's way of doing it is. Ableton is simpler, more powerful, and less formulaic.
