Yes, you are correct.
The jogs are the negative thing in this. If you turn off vinyl mode, stop the deck and try to use the jog wheel to move in the track….well you gonna see huge lag on the jog. With vinyl mode turned on this dissapear for sure.
Ofc you never ever gonna have such a precision jog wheel integration like on S2/S4 in traktor.
Since I’m not a scratch dj, I can live with this limitation.
But it’s different for everyone

Ps: This is only for Traktor. In Serato the jogs works like a charm!

Depends on what operative system you use I guess.
On mac you can use quick time to record the video with sound without too much difficulty.
A more expensive software is Wirecast (which mainly used for streaming audio/video) that has option to save to file.
I personally dont record anything, I let the video streaming site that I’m using (http://vjstream.tv) record everything for me and I can either publish it there or download it.

Sry to see you leave man but it’s cool that you got what you were looking for!!!

I’ve been spliting up my time on sundays. As most I stream to 4 different places at the same time (1 video 3 audio) as my B2B is part of my usual 3 hours set. I start out with 1 hour web radio show then continue with B2B and finish off with an extra hour. All this video streamed to vjstream.tv The last 2 weeks the B2B hour was going out to the web radio, too as I’ve been asked to fill out the 2 hours spot after my show as the dj couldnt go online. So ppl could see the video on vjstream, listen on mixify and also on Richidancefm web radio the B2B event.
You guys couldnt listen the mic as S2 doesnt send the mic signal into the mixer but pass it by so as with Icecasting you cant hear me talking on mixify but I was talking during the B2B event, too.

I hope from time to time you can join us on sundays….I’m gonna miss your sets as the tracks you spin is quite close to the style I like myself, too.

I’ve used Beau’s mapping since 2.5 on my S2.
I didnt notice anything special about the jogs actually…..only change I’ve noticed is with the “quick search”. When you brows into the track with shift button pressed. It didnt really work in 2.5.1 but now with 2.6 it works perefctly….nto as sensitive as it was before.

With the file browser knob maybe 1 in 20 times it jumps 2 lines for me…..loop and other knobs works 100%.

The last thing isnt the CUE/CUP change? Check the install picture….one of the jpg files in the directory you download. There you can find instructions how to go into the mapping and switch back to “normal”.

If it didnt help then good luck….I’m out of ideas atm.

If you use Traktor I have a better idea for you. Go and use Trainspotter (http://www.tspotter.net/)
Look away from the fact that it can help you organize your collection file for traktor with searching for your tracks in beatport (this is a lil buggy so for any means do not hit update tag without looking at what the program found for you!) but I recently looked into the Dynamic Playlist that you can make with Trainspotter and I have only 1 word: WOW!
You can make all kind of dynamic play lists that you can find in your collection when you start Traktor.
You can set up any kind of rules for a dynamic playlist like “show tracks that imported in the last x days” or “tracks that has x ammount of play count” or “tracks that missing anything in the tag” and the limit is your imagination. As the collection is handled as a database you can actually ass xquery command to the dynamic lists.
Imo this is a must for anyone that use Traktor and not using itunes (or even for those ppl, too).
So this can help you build a nice library.

Either the site likes me (which I doubt) or icecast works independent but I cant recall to having any issue during my hour.

For me it did work well during my hour. Even recording did work well:

I’ve setup a session 9pm (8pm BST) as part of my 3 hours video streaming session. Even if I wanted I couldnt play earlier as I have to fix my car the afternoon.
