Should I pick 1 up?
So I already have an s4 w/midi-fighter + x1, but for some reason I’ve been getting an urge to pick up a vci-100 se. Am I being a gear whore? or Am I being retarded? lol
If yes, how’s the jogwheels and pitch fader for beatmatching and how do they compare to the s4? I do manual beatmatching, A-B. and how’s the headphone cue volume levels//clarity?
thx.
dont really see the point in getting a vci if you already have an s4.
Depends on what you’re looking for . I had a kontrol s4 , sold it . Didn’t like it for a few reasons : 1- built quality , 2- not really customizable (for what im looking for) , 3- I don’t use 4 decks . Maybe sometimes when im doing a crazy mash-up or something , but that’s not often .
Got myself a vci 100 SE . Best decision i ever made . Feels quality , all metal , knobs are not wobbly … And it’s more compact 
Good thing about the vci 100 is that it doesn’t have a sound card . You can choose the quality you want and it’s upgradable at any given time . (I personally use an audio 2 dj)
About your question on manually beatmatching with the vci : With firmware 1.4 , it’s really precise , pretty much the same as the s4 .
i just wanna try it out and see what all the hype is about lol
so the beatmatchin is precise as the s4? and how about the cue headphone volume?
The volume is louder with my audio 2 dj than a kontrol s4 . (from my test , and I don’t know why)
I can confirm that beatmatching is really precise with it . I was able to beatmatch as easily as a kontrol s4 or a pair of decks .
I can’t recommend this controller enough . Not only is it good , but it’s a part of djtechtools .
