    I have a digital jockey 2 which has all the same controls just more of them, only advice is don’t rape the transport buttons, they aren’t that strong and will break if abused, everything else is decent quality, especially since the mixage doesn’t have the push to kill eq’s which are a blessing and a curse,It’s great to have the extra controlls but the knobs are wobbly and don’t feel good to mix with.

    it will be much better than a mixtrack, and you won’t need to worry it will break from general use.

    thanks for your answer

    what the quality of the sound card
    What is the latency

    never really used it live… I use an audio 8 for that… sounds alright in the bedroom, dont know either, prob 5ms, I didn’t change any settings when trying it. You shouldn’t really worry about latency unless you are a skilled scratch dj where it actually counts, 5ms is 200ths of a second. Only gear heads worry about insignificant crap like that, just focus on the music not the tech specs cause a bad dj running 0ms is still a bad dj.

    right above what ?

    the bad gear or bad taste of music? i never see good dj whit bad gear
    but i see a lot of posers whit very good gear and bad taste of music

    of course is very important the tech part when you go digital dj

    Atom, 5ms is no latency at all, what synthet1c is saying is it’s nothing to worry about. Good DJs can play on pretty much any gear, remember that.

    sorry about the shameless plug, but I did this a couple of days ago to stick on djtt in the scratching thread, guess the latency on my system….

    sorry Phil,I disagree
    is not the same play with a Technics turntable and playing with a non-professional gear

    and to play tracks one after another
    anyone can do it
    EN MI PAIS LES LLAMAMOS PONE DISCOS

    and please do not send private messages to my email
    emphasizing my attitude reads well the answer the other person was not at all friendly

    if you are not happy with my attitude can do what suits you
    is your forum and your blog

    Alright I lied, I was only trying to apease Phil… he scares me a little with his constant pm’ing, you can’t dj on anything higher than 1ms, and even then it’s touch and go… does that sound ridiculous to you? if my controller had 50ms latency I would just use the jogs to correct the song position… try mixing on a pioneer dj 3500 turntables (my first set :() and get back to me

    P.S. im drunk cause plump dj’s are playing tonight yeeeaaah!

    Today I received the mixage
    I’m playing with it and really I’m quite disappointed

    it is impossible to find a point on the track
    with the search function using jogs

    is highly imprecise compared to mixtrack pro and vestax thypoon

    ask for help on reloop forum

    and give me silly answers

    The reloop forum is terrible, I made a suggestion of a future controler with a photoshoped image and recieved a reply of “you have too much time on your hands”… what software are you using… I generally figure things out for myself, the dj2 works perfectly in vdj although I did change the jog sensitivity in the mapping to suit me, I have heard countless stories about things not working optimally in traktor… maybe that’s the problem

    i all ready try virtual dj 7.5
    traktor 2 le
    traktor pro 2

    and same problem whit jogs

    only virtual dj has better behavior on scratch mode

    on search mode same problem

    what versión of vdj are you using ?

    7.05b

    for the jogs to search maybe map them as

    param_greater 0% ? goto +4 : goto -4

    if that doesn’t work use “param_greater 50% ?” instead

    that means for every tick of the jog it will move 4 beats in time with the music… if that is too sensitive you can add a multiplier eg

    param_greater 0% ? param_multiply 50% & goto +4 : param_multiply 50% & goto -4

    you can increase or decrease the multiplier as you please to get the correct setting

    I forgot to mention you need to change the “default scratch latency” using

    the registry tool
