I have been an active Technics 1200 user for many years, maybe 15 years + and last few years only using Serato Scratch. I must say I have found it working great. I never had any problems and a very easy to use interface.
I only feel it does not do so many "bells and whistles" as Traktor.
I am feeling maybe time to go the non deck route and let my 1200's go on Ebay. I was thinking to go Traktor and VCI -100 route, but wondering if it will be a close emulation or I maybe might be a little disappointed.
I am not very thrilled by Serato itch as it has no effects or anything special but control without standard decks.
One thing I do not like about deck controllers is one must "hook up" in the club
and can be a little weird and nerve racking.
So any others feel like me or think Serato is better than Traktor and I could be making a big mistake?
Seems these days digital dj'ing offers more for the crowd and dj , so it seems simple decks and simple software could be heading for the stone age unless one is a scratch master or very, very tallented on decks alone. Seems the VCI-100/Traktor way is more like a dj/studio performance.
ANy thoughts and opinions before I may make a major move..
