TRAKTOR KONTROL S4

December 30, 2011 in Featured

Forget what you know about DJ controllers and DJ software. TRAKTOR KONTROL S4 was designed from its conception as a fully integrated system where software and hardware are fused in perfect harmony. Once you experience it, you’ll immediately feel how simple, yet powerful and fluid a professional DJ system can be. TRAKTOR KONTROL S4 is the culmination of a 10-year vision and experience only Native Instruments can provide. So whether you’re a seasoned TRAKTOR user looking for the ultimate controller, or just entering the world of digital DJing, the S4 delivers like no other can.

The sleek, stylish controller puts TRAKTOR at your fingertips – fusing hardware and software into one harmonic unit. Innovative Sample Decks, high-quality electromagnetic jog wheels, two effect units and two clearly laid-out deck control sections can be assigned to any of the four software decks and deliver a new level in creative control over your one shots, tracks and loops.

The intuitive and ergonomic controller layout and its robust rotary knobs provide precise visual and tactile status feedback – perfect for any DJ situation. Highly responsive to the touch, TRAKTOR KONTROL S4 is incredibly smooth to use, while its slim and compact profile makes it easy to transport from gig to gig.

New Tracktor Pro Software

It’s super simple to get straight in the mix, thanks to the included TRAKTOR PRO S4 software, adapted from the pioneering TRAKTOR PRO. Developed in perfect synergy with the S4’s controller, new features have been added to the TRAKTOR PRO S4 software to fully take advantage of this all-in-one solution, while premium ready-made and instantly combinable loops have been provided by the renowned Loopmasters sample house.

The filter is switchable between Traktor and Xone-style. The ergonomic layout has been created by DJs for DJs, with some of the world’s biggest names having direct input in to the design. It’s easy to integrate other DJ and performance gear like turntables, CD players or a microphone via the inputs.

The innovative new Loop Recorder feature acts like a fifth deck, to add an exciting layer on top of your mix by recording and looping audio on-the-fly. An optional foot controller can be used to engage the Loop Recorder while both hands are busy – for instance while performing an advanced scratch routine!

Audio Interface

TRAKTOR KONTROL S4 also includes a powerful and versatile audio interface. With the same build quality as all multi-award winning Native Instruments DJ sound cards, this unit lets you easily integrate external turntables and CD players, instruments, MIDI gear, effects and a microphone into your TRAKTOR DJ sets.

The optional flight case with high quality industrial design carries your unit with 100% security, while the case also elevates the unit to standard turntable and CD player height and offers a stable stand for your laptop. It’s doesn’t get more mobile than this. The flexible ins and outs of the included soundcard mean it’s easy to hook up other gear – including a microphone.

Numark NS7 Review

December 30, 2011 in Featured

Gone are the days of carrying around crates of vinyl’s or CDs and technology is allowing the DJ’s kit to become smaller and smaller . Although the NS7 is quite large and heavy compared to other digital Dj Units it makes up for that in its quality and functions.

Having something that is portable is a big thing these days but you still want to be able to use it and thats were the NS7 Shines it is portable compared to your traditional gear and its a complete package combine it with your laptop and PA system and you are ready to go.

The best thing about the NS7 is you are still the DJ and you control it rather then some DJ Programs that do all the work for you. Thats what i like about it you have all the latest songs and music at your fingertips right there on your computer but your still in control and you still get to enjoy what Djing is about mixing, Scratching effects etc.

The NS7 is the next Generation of Dj Gear its the latest in technology and for some Djs it may take time to finally switch from your traditional setup to a newer digital experience but it will be well worth the switch in the end.

NS7 Features

• High-resolution controller built for Serato ITCH and compatible with Scratch LIVE libaries

• Direct-drive, motorized turntable platters with classic and modern feel settings

• Includes Serato ITCH DJ software, fully pre-mapped

• Audiophile-grade audio circuitry with mic and line inputs, system and cue outs

• Extensive loop, cue, and track-access controls

• Rugged, all-metal construction

• High quality, replaceable, customizable CP-PRO crossfader and D-TYPE line faders

• Mix using either 33rpm or 45rpm speeds
