Traktor came with my old Stealth Control. Preferred the yellow and black color scheme. Simple x]
When i started looking at upgrading my hardware, I also looked at the software. I gave vdj a go (i was especially intrigued by the video mixing capabilities, although never quite explored it..)
Now that i know the programs a little better, I prefer Traktor’s method of syncing (Quantize and Snap >in vdj when you can hear it “slide” over if you dont hit play EXACTLY on the beat, since you have to sync it afterwards….. very gross lol)
I also prefer the separate “side by side” stripe views… you can easily look at a chunk of a track and based on the minute markers easily determine where phrases of say 32 or 64 beats are.
Now that i have T2pro, (despite my favorite color scheme being gone) I am definitely addicted to the new spectrum waveform display. Its just too good. My hardware is now the MC6k from Denon & im working on modifying Altamira’s TSI ton include the couple of beatgridding functions i still need to grab my mouse for.
Once Traktor can analyze the Key of your track, and suggest similarly keyed tracks like Vdj, there would be no reason for me to even mention Vdj in a comparison thread.
