I needed to post because I am frustrated...I have DJ'ed for 15 years and was one of the first to use Traktor on a PC and then beta-tested and used it on the Mac [so I was around before there was even a mac version, believe it or not].
I have been a digital DJ for a long, long time...
Anyway, I took a few years off and just hopped back on board a few months ago. I had an S4 and some turntables and needed to update my software, no problem. I was able to get the download for the newest version of Traktor BUT not for Traktor Scratch. And mind you, I own/have serial #'s in my service manager account all the way back to the first Final Scratch. I sold my A8 a while ago, so all I have is the s4 which I was using for DVS.
Ok, so no download -- I placed an order for the $99 software which is delivered via box with the control records (didn't even need those as I just purchased a new set of red ones). It said it was backordered...so I paid and waited a few weeks. No news, apparently they said it would take several weeks because they were out of stock. Now why is it out of stock? I am thinking something new is around the corner...right now you can't purchase any software for DVS with S4.
Here's the other thing, I figured maybe I would buy a Z2 -- I don't really need one, I have the S4, but I really want a DVS system and right now, even though I have several scratch serial #'s, I can't get a version of the newest scratch. Get this, even on Amazon, the Z2 says it is going to be several weeks to be in stock, and the other big stores don't have them either.
This combined with the price drop on the S4 for the month of April has me speculating that we are on the cusp of some new software and hardware? Has anyone else had any experiences like myself in the past few weeks? It is just so weird....I had to vent.
