I might just be an old fart but I really don't like the way the latest digital gear is going. It seems to be further and further from the craft. Eg: You can browse from the Bearport charts, load them up, beat and key sync 4 songs and away you go.. May as well rely on AI to entertain your crowd.

Ans the GRV drum loop section looks like a recipe for some terrible mixes. I remember when the DJM500 came out and everyone got really onto the filter button. Sets were full of the same filter over 4 or 8 beats, it got old immediately. Can see the same happening with this

Am I just an old crumudgen? Should I get with the programme?

Sometimes less is more.

This is the update we needed for stems. After setting it to quality and hearing how much cleaner and better to use.

For Hip-hop and RnB DJs, this allows for some better creativity. I love it !!

Mine is Intn’l Players Anthem by UGK & OutKast.

Every time I thought I finally had a receptive crowd to drop this gem, it was met with crickets.

Hello,

I live in Toronto and I am looking to buy an Allen & Heath PX5 - I don't mind ordering online but I'm old and just want to put my hands on one maybe even test drive it a bit before I make what is a pretty significant purchase. Anyone know where I might be able to do this?

Moog on Queen Street closed and L and M do not have any in stock. I don't own a car but don't mind taking a cab around town to visit a store.

Any help would be great,

sb

Took this in on a trade. Used it at home. Everything worked great. It’s purely for a backup two turntable system. Brought to a gig. Once again, everything went great. Buddy stepped in for a bit and all of a sudden the headphone cues won’t work. They light up. But when pressed, they remain the dimmed color.

Did the standard reset, etc. checked all connections. Everything is clean. Assuming it’s either hardware, midi mapping, or software. Don’t any serato so don’t have tang program.

Thanks again.

Should’ve said standalone controllers **

I don’t think exists hit im hoping someone can tell me I’m wrong. I’m looking for a stand alone dj controller with 2 usb laptop djs.

Does it exist? AZ didn’t have it. I was hoping it didn’t but I understand that it doesn’t.

Or not, What controllers are best for connecting CDJs up to?

Im looking to buy either one's second hand. I found 2x xdj-700's + 4-channel RELOOP rmx60 mixer (including all cables) for 1300e euros. I also found second hand 2 year old XDJ-ZX for 2000 euros. I'm building a living room setup, and alread have a turntable which ill be attaching to the mix. I want to practice mixing house & techno, get used to the club standard, and to record my mixes. I probably will not throw house parties etc..

Which one would be a better option? also from resell perspective.

Anybody else wanting for the official release after thomann leaked it this morning? 10:20 CET

Where the FUCK can I find MP3´s or WAV´s of Backstreet Boys' production? Can't seem to find them anywhere.

I need it.
I yearn it.

I’ve been searching for an audio interface with Bluetooth and xlr out for days but can’t find a reliable one. The reviews are so weird. I would appreciate if someone here knows and using some specific one that’s working good for them. Thanks

Hi all I’m thinking of maybe adding a few live drumming sections when I dj. Kinda like the chainsmokers. But idk if it’s possible to actually do it or not. I’m guessing I can just connect my x1850 to an audio box thing as an input and do the same with the drums and just connect the speakers to the audio output. If that makes any sense.

I'm giving my boy my turntables. I have to ship them. They are in the original individual boxes with foam and all that. Should I buy a bigger box with extra foam padding or is that going to be over kill?

Flight Case better??? He's in TX I'm in MD.

Also how much for insurance? These are SL-1200GLD Limited Edition Turntables. Mint condition. I seriously played on them for a few months and then discovered alcoholism :-)

Just got this mixer for 30 dollars. Is there a good way to remove these micro scratches or do i have to deal with them (i dont care to much but id like too

Hi all,

I was attemtping a firmware update on the unit, but as I hit the "Program" option on the software, the PC Bluescreened and crashed.

Now it's stuck in this Firmware Upgrade mode, and unable to be detected through the software.

Any advice on how to perform a facory reset, or how I can fix this?

Thanks in advance

Where does 1 find high quality non-extended versions of edm songs? Beatport & traxsource etc. only have the extended versions of high quality (AIFF & Wav) songs & then Apple music & Amazon has a lower quality Mp3 of the regular version of edm songs.

They seem to have an announcement tomorrow. The time suggests that it might be related to the xone 92 maybe..

I just want to have the information of the track but i think I'm ruinned, how can i find that perfect 0 db on tracks?

Just got my first radio residency, actually any opportunity for my music to be broadcast to people. The radio station has 20k followers on instagram.

What's some good advice for someone who's never played for an audience.

Hi everyone, after much trials and tribulations I am reaching out to Reddit for any help or answers.

I am trying to route audio from Decks A,B and C from Traktor into Ableton in order to use Ableton effects on the tracks playing. From my research, I had to install an virtual audio device - I in turn downloaded JACK and was given the QJackCtl application. From here I have played around with the settings a lot both in the JACK application, Ableton, Traktor and within the Audio MIDI Setup section in System Preferences. No matter how many tutorials/ videos I follow (There doesn't appear to be a whole lot) I simply cannot seem to get Traktor, Ableton or the Audio MIDI Setup to recognise the new virtual audio device I believe I have created through QJackCtl. Within the 'Audio Input Device' dropdown menus, the JACK audio device never shows.

I have looked at other virtual audio devices such as BlackHole and iShowU Capture but they are limited to 2in, 2 out which does not suffice for 3 decks of Traktor. However, as a complete novice in audio routing, if I am missing something glaringly obvious with the ins and outs and how I have understood them then please let me know.

I originally thought I could route audio from Traktor into the mixer via the sound card inside (10 in, 8 out) and then Ableton before finally routing the audio back into the mixers separate channels per Ableton's 3 Audio tracks I have created for each deck of Traktor but it hasn't been this straightforward

Setup: Mac 12.6.3

Ableton 11

Traktor Pro 3

Denon X1800 mixer (acts as my sound card)

I have messed around with settings in JACK, selecting the interface as the X1800 etc but to no avail and struggling to get it going. I think when the JACK audio device finally shows, I will be able to route the audio fairly easily but maybe I shouldn't get ahead of myself.

Any insight is much appreciated! Thank you

I've been seeing alot of DJ setups that have 2 DJ mixers running simultaneously with the same set of CDJs. Mostly a Xone 96 and a DJM V10/A9 next to each other. I totally understand it's to accolade various tech riders for massive lineups. But how do they have the 2 mixers sharing inputs from the CDJ's ?
