Reloop Terminal Mix 4 – Sound Quality Issue??

This is actually an issue with the controller in particular. There is a thread at the Reloop support forums about the Terminal Mix 4 crackling sound, I think the sol’n to it was to update the firmware. I have a Reloop myself, the Jockey 3 and the Mixage, but I never have had any issues. Reloop is a very reliable except for those early controllers like the DJ2 which had issues with the transport buttons.

I’ve seen no issues with the highs being weak. Maybe you can demo a TM4 in a store and bring your unit so you can compare if they are actually defective. I demoed a TM4 once, but it just sounded the way my DJ3 sounds.

The firmware is described in the manual, it says something about holding the shift button and cues while connecting it to the computer.

um… it’s a software eq… firmware probably isn’t going to fix it,

If you use vdj pro the eq is terrible anyway but if you use pc you can install “minimal systems instruments – ultimate 3 band” vst, it destroys anything else in sound quality, but you need to disable it when you are scratching if you have a slower computer. I do it with mapping the jog touch sensor with this, it shuts off the effect when you touch the platter when vinyl mode is active.

vinyl_mode 1 ? down ? effect "ultimate 3 band" active off & touchwheel_touch 1 : touchwheel_touch 0 & effect "ultimate 3 band" active on : touchwheel_touch
