Hi all,
I'm looking to improve my home setup. Currently I just use a midi controller (x1 and vcm100) and mix inside traktor but I'm looking to get something that feels a little bit better quality and maybe more like a traditional turntable and mixer set up. That said, I'm not really interested in having a dvs system as this is only something I do for fun at home, although in the future I might like to add a single turntable (for sampling and playback only). I have been considering the following:
- traktor z2 (especially now it's on sale)
I would use my x1 for transport etc. and I believe it can be used a standalone hardware mixer.
- pioneer djm@@@ (or similar quality mixer)
Not sure which but something with a built in sound card and midi mapping capabilities. The appeal here is just how solid these mixers feel (I had a traditional set up back in the day) and I guess the flexibility in the future.
- s4
These look great but I get a slight feeling that they're a bit 'toy' like and obviously it can't act as a standalone mixer for just turntable playback.
I'd be interested in hearing everyone's opinions.
Peace
