    Default Deckadance 2 DVS?

    The manual states that it can learn any timecode to be used to control the software. Anyone who has the beta tested this out with Serato or Traktor timecodes yet?

    Seriously considering making the switch to D2. Have you purchased it yet? How you getting on? how is the stability of D2? Checked out the demo and it was pretty cool.
    It's not the gear. It's how you use it.

    So they don't MENTION Traktor timecode specifically - BUT if D2 can LEARN ANY timecode you should be fine....

    I used the learn function for my serato vinyl,, traktor mk1, and traktor mk2 vinyl. All of which were useless. There was a lot of flutter via the software which made mixing a pain in the arse. Scratch functions were virtually impossible and no absolute mode. I will be getting hold of Torq and Ms. Pinky vinyl to complete the full review.

    Cue a huge flame war over NI's proprietary 'locked down' functionality just to suck money out of people and hinder the progression of DJing.

    On a more serious note, that sucks about those timecodes not working even with the learn function. I liked how the program allows you to burn a CD with their own timecode though. Great for CDJ users!

    I was about to make the jump over to D2 DVS, but after adding it all up, software, soundcard, timecode vinyl. Its not that far from the cost of and audio 6 and traktor scratch. They might struggle to get people to make the jump considering that.

    Just a heads up that Deckadance has it's own timecode. Not only that, but if you're using a CD, there is a utility to generate timecode CDs in the preferences tab in your Deckadance software.

    The timecode CD (Made within the software then burned) works fine. They do not have a specified timecode vinyl for deckadance tho. If they do, its not listed for sale anywhere and not listed as a supported timecode within the software.

    might be a stupid question, but how is dekadance working with timecode if you cannot mix externally? (at least in the beta-version i have)
