Rekordbox and traktor controller s411/8/2023 ![]() The Hercules Inpulse 500 had similar outputs. Speaking of outputs, the DDJ-FLX6 has Master and Booth, although curiously both are RCA unbalanced, with no balanced jack or XLR outputs – presumably the engineers thought people may use the second set of outputs when livestreaming. Learn to DJ with Digital DJ Tips: The Complete DJ Course You do get to decide if the mic goes to the Booth outputs or not, though, which is a nice touch. The DDJ-FLX6 does have a mic input, but this is routed directly to the outputs so you cannot apply effects to the mic, for instance, or record the mic using your software’s built-in recorder. If the computer crashes, the music stops. It is a software-only controller, meaning you cannot plug in external equipment like CDJs, turntables, even a simple smartphone, to have any back-up music. But as far as build quality goes, it is nothing like the DDJ-1000 – apart from the jogwheels, which are great. The DDJ-FLX6 is a big controller, nearly as large as the Pioneer DJ DDJ-1000. The knobs, faders (including the short-throw pitch fader), and pads (one-colour, not RGB) are what you’d expect on a consumer controller – fine for home use, but on a controller this big it feels like they should be better. It is grey rather than black, but still plasticky. But as far as build quality goes, it is nothing like the DDJ-1000, being of the same ilk as the cheaper DDJ-200 and DDJ-400 controllers – this is definitely a consumer device. It is so small with a the mixtour mixer by reloop, same size as an x1 or z1 but can do so much.Īnyway now going to get the ssd and load up the tracks and use Engine.The DDJ-FLX6 (the name apparently stands for “flexible”, as in, it works with both Rekordbox and Serato) is a big controller, nearly as large as the Pioneer DJ DDJ-1000. ![]() I don’t like the non HID functionality of 3rd party mixers. Still I am familiar with Traktor and has never crashed with me I use a mac so could be why. The P4 has so much at your fingers real time tactile control and love the powerful top Sound quality for pitch adjust and key match is awesome. I only use iTunes for that so would be good to do more on the fly with my P4. I realise on the P4 that playlist and database functionality won’t be as good as iTunes. Maybe that is where there is a delay? But sc5000m seem ok to tour with for Laidback Luke. I have heard that Engine even with modern music has had some seriously wrong bpm results and that they are working on it. ![]() Phil reckoned in his review that TP3 had a similar sound quality to P4 at 100% pitch adjustment but in my Traktor about TP.2.11 quite recent the sound quality drops if it is 10%. The new TP3 has elastique software for that now. I am a long term 10 year Traktor user and not got the new TP3 yet but the bpm analysis is spot on for new tracks, sometimes very rarely there was a kind of issue where I would have to unsync and adjust the phase alignment. Serato is meant to be the best at bpm analysis according to Phil Morse from Digital DJ Tips. ![]() no need for hours spent at home preping and thats the difference.ĭont get me wrong i am willing denon to pull this off as i want to move to the sc5000m hardware. In a nut shell i dont need to prepare tracks at home as i am 100% confident that i can do it on the fly just prior to playing the track for the first time ever out live sometimes having never even heard the track. there is no messing about with correcting tempos, expanding beat grids or moving initial grid markers like rekordbox and prime. The other beauty of traktor is the position of the first down beat, as i said, once you drop a beat marker your track is ready. These new takes on old music have always been produced with a steady tempo unlike there original counter parts. I’d rather play fatter re edits these days keeping the original vibe but with a much meatier sound. I would say traktor is 98% hit rate with tracks after produced after 1988, i guess if your mixing classic disco or funk then it would struggle. ![]()
