Pitch Fader Controller

Pitch Fader Controller

Does anyone have any recommendations for a small compact controller with faders I can use just to control the pitch in Traktor?

In my setup, I use turntables/timecode, a DJM800 mixer, the Kontrol X1, and Traktor Pro 2. Sometimes, I want to make drastic tempo changes and the +-8% pitch faders on my turntables aren’t enough. Plus they don’t work well if you want to make a tempo change while in a mix and synced. I’d much rather switch to internal mode and use a physical pitch fader to change the tempo rather than go to my laptop to do it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

hi, you can plug midi cable on your djm800 push “tap” and turn level/depth ,you can choose the tempo and sending this on your traktor

Thanks. I’ve never used the midi functionality on the DJM800 so I’d like to know more. But I’d need midi converter box since the Audio 6 doesn’t have midi I/O’s.

Denon SC2000 seems like a no-brainer. If you don’t have a need for jogwheel remap it to control FX dry/wet or simply use it for quick scrolling through the library (shift+jogwheel).

Actually - I bought one of these that I’ve never unboxed. I got it on ebay for <£10:

There’s also the DJ Tech VTT-101, which is the same, but without the encoder…

Sweet! If only it didn’t need external power..

It doesn’t. It’s optional…

The though did cross my mind but..optional for what? It’s not like it has a audio interface inside so it needs more power for louder output or stronger LED brightness. Strange, isn’t it?

I imagine its so that it can also be used as a midi controller using a usb>midi converter.

It’s so if your particular setup has a problem powering the device, you can use it with an external adapter. This kind of thing happens all the time, with either the laptop or an accessory (like a hub or dock).

Stewe and I replaced the cue-buttons with instant FX for the Denon DN-SC2000, check it out:
