Mk2 Traktor Timecode Vinyl - Any performance improvement?
Did you upgrade? Better for scratching or just worse for your wallet?
Better for scratching due to improved decoding of the position of the timecode. The error compensation has been improved.
Feels a bit less “grainy” under your fingers, more like regular vinyl
Quieter 'weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" sound.
The difference is slight but any improvement is good. Are they worth the money? Yeah id say so. Your gonna need new timecode at some point. Buy em now or buy em when you need em.
Karlos, we love you, Karlos we doooooo
This alone is worth the price of admission imho…
I Can’t really put my finger on it (har har), but I find that they just feel better
Just ordered a pair - looking forward to giving it a test run.
You know you’re too drunk when you lean down to listen to the record coming in, only to realize you’re playing on timecode when you hear that damn “wheee”.
PS
I.Hate.That.Sound.
+1
I got a pair in the bundle NI were/are doing because i had a voucher for their store but iv not properly used em yet since iv got pretty new timecode anyway.
Waiting for my white MKII pair …they said they should be shipping in the next week or so. Traktor butter rugs also end route!
+1 on that..
on a scale from one to ten how much quieter are the mk2 versions compared to the mk1s
Is 1 loud or quiet?
oh I hate that “weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee” noise…drive me nuts. I would pay just to make it quieter…
1 being loud 10 being quiet
I got my MKII vinyls about a week or so ago and I must say they are a great improvement. Basically everything that Karlos said… And what Cybertrash said… They really just “feel” better to me. Scratch response is definitely a lot better too.
Mine just showed up this evening so I will report back with more detail than any normal person needs.
I look forward to this. I will order based upon this.
