    Default Whats your IDEAL setup

    Hey everybody,

    I'm curious what your ideal DJ and Studio setup is.

    My ideal DJ setup is:

    • Midi Fighter Pro Beatmasher with the MF Pro Beat Masher Mapping FOCUS
    • Traktor Kontrol S4 using the default mapping
    • Macbook Pro 8 GB RAM, 126 GB SSD, 13 Inch, running Traktor Scratch Pro 2 and Maschine
    • Midi Fighter 3D mapped with flashflooders DeckGratMotion mapping
    • Traktor Kontrol F1 controlling remix deck C
    • Pioneer DJM 900 NEXUS used as an external mixer setup for Traktor
    • Traktor Kontrol F1 controlling remix deck D
    • Maschine controlling Maschine software on the background, because the displays enable to have only the hardware visible

    __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ________

    And as my Studio setup:

    • Macbook Pro 8 GB RAM, 126 GB SSD, 15 Inch. Running Logic Pro 9, Ableton
    • Livid Instruments CTRL_R controlling Ableton Live Suite 8
    • Nord Stage 2 HA88 controlling Logic Pro 9


    So all on a list:

    • Ableton - Live Suite 8 $549
    • Apple - Macbook Pro 15 Inch $
    • Apple - Macbook Pro 13 Inch $1599
    • Clavia - Nord Stage 2 HA88 $3500
    • DJ Techtools - Midi Fighter Pro Beatmasher $299
    • DJ Techtools - Midi Fighter 3D $249
    • Livid Instruments - CTRL_R $699
    • Logic - Pro 9 $199
    • Native Instruments - Traktor Kontrol F1 $249
    • Native Instruments - Traktor Kontrol F1 $249
    • Native Instruments - Traktor Kontrol S4 $899
    • Native Instruments - Maschine $599
    • Native Instruments - Maschine $599
    • Native Instruments - Traktor Scratch A10 $499
    • Pioneer - DJM 900 NEXUS $1999

    So a total of $
    But for me without the price of the Traktor Kontrol S4, Nord Stage 2 HA88 and the Midi Fighter 3D, because I already have these two.

    Always changing and no matter what I have I will always wonder how something else would be. I really liked my DNX1600 and 2 X1 setup, but wasn't a big fan of the FX on that mixer so I sold it and went back to all midi with an APC-40 and an X1. After three or four months with the APC I've got it mapped to something that I've really come to like working with. Of course my mapping isn't like many others out there that I've seen. There's some things I don't like about the APC so it'll go soon, but I don't know what will replace it. Maybe a Xone 92, X1 and F1. The DB4 or 2 maybe. This new Behringer CMD series is interesting, the VCI-400 maybe although I've come to really like not having jogs. I've even thought about the Twitch, but don't really think it's for me. I've also thought about an Ecler 3 channel mixer because that's all I really need with two sample decks.
