I dont expect everyone reading this to give a damn about achieving the highest quality sound output available but for me right now it's critical.
I'm starting to play more 'big club' gig's 1000+ ppl and I want to use the S4 cause it's so awesome to use, as its what im most comfortable on I only play WAV or Aiff. Beatgrid, hotkeys, loops, outro's, intro's the whole insane prep leading up to any gig!! Anyway I have a apple mac pro with 80+ gig space free and its going fine with traktor pro2.67.
My only problem is:
Getting the full balanced output to the pioneer mixers practically in every club i play at, 90% of clubs have a pioneer mixer, which DON'T support Trs 1/4" Jack inputs, RCA only.. unless they have a soundboard guy with an oldschool band mixer, and he has to be nice and work with you.. Not happening!! I'm fully aware of how the balanced leads are used as studio monitors etc. I'm not concerned about theory I know all that shit. Does Raine or Allen and Heath have Trs inputs? Am I on the wrong track here, if so no hate I'm just trying to learn what people around me in real life dont know.
I was recently told by a techtools staffer that Trs 1/4" Jack's are around louder than RCA's output, he said around 6db difference!!
How come this issue isnt being talked about AT ALL online!! So here I am..The forum. Pan Pot use the native instruments audio interface between traktor laptop and the mixer obviousley, I might need the newest interface from NI (Traktor Scratch Audio 10) I will get it even if it is $500..
Could someone please explain to me why I should settle for RCA's when there are better options?!? And I hope you get what I'm saying and can put my mind at ease here. I have some more events coming up and I would love to have everything locked down!!
Thanks for reading, if you could possibly link me to a thread that would be great Cheers
