Traktor S4 vs VCI 100 Arcade w/ Midi Fighter

Hey yall, so here’s my scenario: I wanna get into DJing, just a hobby for now, but I don’t want to start off with a cheap set up. I’ve narrowed down my search to either the Traktor S4, or a VCI-100 Arcade along with a midi fighter. What I love about both of these options is that they enable so much potential creativity.

What would you go with?

Try a forum search first mate

S4 for sure but thats just my personal opinion

Realistically an S4… go with the newer technology.

S4 and then down the line… a midi fighter. Best of both worlds… arcade buttons do rock!

it all depends how you play. Me personally I don’t use/need arcade buttons. I would much rather have some solid jogs you can scratch on. Not saying either is better - just saying that the answer to this question all depends on how you want to play or what meets your needs.

I bought a midi fighter thinking that I would use it alot more in my sets. But realised that It is more of a battle controller for my own needs. But I did learn in the process what I like and what I don’t like.

S4, it’ll really help you get used to all of Traktor’s features in no time at all.
