Now we know why Karlos was shopping for an iPad, a couple of months ago! ![]()
Bingoā¦!!!
I had nothing to do with this decision ![]()
Do we think there will be an Android version?
I have not heard anything regarding Android but I will certainly ask.
Lol⦠i was surprised that no-one twigged sooner.
I was all āipad this and iPad thatā for a few weeks.
I still need to get around to trying your Lemur layout. In fact I still need to get the Lemur app.
Testing Traktor DJ has taken all my time with the iPad.
I still want to use it as a controller at some point.
I personally feel this app is amazing and has incredible potential. I love the way it operates, itās very easy to use and whilst it is controlled differently it feels very similar to the Traktor that we are all used to.
One of itās biggest drawbacks as far as I can tell so far after about an hour of using it is that itās not very suited to tracks that donāt have a quantized 4:4 drumbeat. Iām not saying there is no way to do it, just that if there is I havenāt found it yet⦠but I canāt seem to find a way to beatmatch manually which is a big issue.
NI have released a firmware update for the A6 and A10 soundcards so that you can use them using the camera adapter kit (USB in to iPad cable) for use with split stereo audio out and routing through a mixer etc. With this in mind, I can see future versions of the app allowing you to use the S2/S4 and Traktor Scratch gear to control it which could make it a serious contender to DJing with a laptop.
can someone explain how to connect an iPad with the external soundcard?..how those that work?..ill have to sell my brand new audio 4 and by me an Audio 6 because of the power..![]()
Youāll need one of these cables;
You then plug the USB of your NI soundcard into the USB port on that converter cable and plug the other end into your iPad. First youād need to update the firmware of your soundcard, see here:

Agreed and I have requested that cue points should be able to be placed anywhere not just on a beat.
Will this work with my vci-100?
I tried it this morning, itās amazing. All it needs now is 2 more decks and MIDI control ![]()
I have an iPad 3 and the camera connection kit, but when I tried connecting my Audio 10 I got an alert message saying it was drawing to much power (even with the power supply plugged in). I hope thereās a workaround, Iād love to use this with an external mixer.
havenāt downloaded yet because I donāt have my iPad with me, but is there a way to change the cue marker type, most importantly the āLoadā marker?
It seems like more advanced DJs will be using this predominantly for track prep over actual DJing, but still liking the ability to bust it out at an after hours party to tool around. Independent tempo control seems like an oversight unless they see this as far too advanced for its intended audience.
Iām sure weāll see controller integration in future versions too.
I will mainly be using it for track prep and the occasional āHow does this song sound with this oneā during prepping. Canāt wait to get home tonight.
will it charge threw the soundcard???..cause maybe 5-6h of work wont be enough???
There a couple things Iād love to see. 1) A traktor iOS soundcard, with DVS support. 2) Browser support or using the ipad as more of an additional tool for traktor. Itād be cool if you could display either the browser or remix deck cells this could act a possible bridge with Maschine as well. Either way this is a pretty impressive 1.0 spp
Nope.
There is a new updater for the A10 available with the version 48 driver. That will work. You may need to have the A10 on a powered hub but Im not certain.
Nope⦠This is infuriating and will hopefully make it into the next version. It will import Load Markers from Traktor Pro though.
Im using the opposite way. I have no intention of prepping on the iPad but I have DJād with it. Im using it at a small gig that I do, around 40 person room.
No the camera kit does not pass power.
This is a massive drawback to TDJ as it lasts about 3.5 hours on a new iPad without a power source.
I did the firmware update and rebooted everything before I connected. Iāll try it again tonight with a powered hub, but it seems unnecessary since the Audio 10 itself is powered.
Anyone else gotten TDJ working successfully with an Audio 6 or 10?
damn, thatās pretty lame. one of my main steps on track prepping. this is exactly what I wanted it for too.
