So I bought a Twitch

guess you’ll be seeing me around here again.

big ups to the good folks at beatport for letting me download all my old music because im retarded and never back anything up.

also, is jesc still in the closet? just curious

Nice.

Welcome back man..!

…and no, JesC is out of the closet and screaming like a pink gin. :laughing:

yeah i couldnt say no to this deal.

should be interesting exploring minimal / techno playing with the new serato.

i fired it up last night with the new serato dj. looks good so far, still need to play with all those new izotope effects. im curious to see how good they really are.

As experienced Twitch user I’d advise you to get Traktor and the Twitch mapping for it. Works way better than itch/serato DJ imo.

well, serato dj support didnt release until yesterday…

but that said, dj’ing for me as a “competitve thing” is years behind me at this point. been there, done that. made thousands. over it.

i just dj for the sake of doing it at this point. so the idea of exploring all these new features of serato dj (to be clear, its not running twitch, its running serato dj and itch support didnt exist before last night in the software) is fun to me.

FX packs or no FX packs, Serato is just shite in comparison to Traktor unless you’re a turntablist. It’d be well worth using Traktor with the Twitch, especially now that remix deck support is open for 3rd party controllers.

i understand that, but you might wanna take a look at my post history and when i joined this site.

ive likely been using traktor longer than you have…

I’m not doubting or even debating that, just giving you my opinion as someone who’s used both and found Serato to be severely lacking.

To each his own, Traktor has bugged out harder than Northern Manitoba in July for me since the early days :confused: Serato? Never.

16

We need a new overlay for the serato DJ update :confused:

*checks 12inchskinz *

ask and ye shall receive

Yeah, not just for the FX area, I’dn also like one that outlines the pad functions as well (Loop Roll/ Manual Loop, Hot Cues / SP6).

I’d rather pay someone a couple bucks online to just mail me a nice complete new overlay that adheres, but can be removed safely, I’m not going to download that, print it out on paper, and try and cut holes in it, then lay it on the one section lol.

Welcome back good sir. You will find a lot of threads on here start quite well but quickly descent into dross. Not the place it used to be unfortunately.
Re the overlay I’d love a fully completed one and would gladly pay a few quid for one. My Twitch currently has stickers all over it for my custom Traktor mapping. If anyone out there feels inclined there’s two customers already.
