**Novation: Game Changer?**

Novation have a countdown with the title “The Game Changer”. As I write this its at 6 days 16 hours.

Any ideas?

The picture is a 1200 with a Rane mixer…

Interesting. Why is the hand purposely covering the record label? Cus it is covering it, thats no scratch position his sleeve is on the cartridge.  
Because its timecode ??? Hmm, has too many tracks to be timecode.

Novation changing the game is a bit of a stretch? Its a bloody big claim.

Who knows. 6 days and counting…

My guess is something serato “the bridge” compatible…maybe like a way to launch clips, control the file browser and everything else.

I was thinking along the same lines, but that it would be a way to use the Launchpad within SSL with the Bridge.

Yeah maybe a dedicated controller/launchpad for the Bridge.

Thing is the Bridge aint out in 6 days?

he’s definitely manipulating out of frame. Prolly NI’s X’1, or maybe… they made an iPad app to work with bridge, or an extension to their automap for iPhone/iPod touch that works with the iPad. Either way, pioneer said the same thing about the new CDJ’s, and I’m still waiting…

Like i said in my first post on the thread, ‘Game Changer’ is a big claim.

That aint no game changer.

Makes me laugh that people say that DJTTs is advertising for NI. That Novation thing isnt out and its on DJTTs. Who cares, DJTTs is being used to pre-promo the Novation thing. Well done Eans for getting the scoop.  
If that was an NI product that was slyly put on the blog some people would be up in arms about it.

Maybe the whiners will whine about this but i doubt it.

Whiners whine, they just do.

I aint saying that its crap. It looks pretty fun but its a mini controller isnt it?  
How does that change the game?

I hope the Serato guys adopt it. It would be good to see some more videos like the one on the blog.

Got the same thing. It looks like a mini controller that is put over the on button of a TT.

The 1200 is in battle mode, so its in the 45 adapter hole, basically dead space.

On the subject of “needle jumps on hit”, Solomon does not seem to shy about “hitting” a button and the needle never jumps. The controller looks rubber mounted.

I think it’s a more comprehensive controller for Serato’s built-in Pong game.

Hey, they did say “game changer” after all lol
