    I like how you call your bedroom or living room "The Lab". True Bedroom Producer terminology! I am much the same

  • @darthvenom100
    @darthvenom100 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I saw the reviews for the numark 4 trak and I feel its just a traktor version of the ns 6 with 2 pounds more of weight.at the same price.I would however consider the mc 6000 but a good dj needs to grow and virtual dj has been good to me, no regrets. thnks for the input blaze !!!

  • @theycallmeQUINCY
    @theycallmeQUINCY 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    i definately need it to work without a computer. I would use Ipod, flash drive, computer, and possibly cds for playing.
    I work mostly with electronic stuff like dubstep or trap

  • @vegiitable
    @vegiitable 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Of course it is! Porter Robinson and Zedd is a few examples of artists that use the Traktor controller in proffesional clubs.

  • @vegiitable
    @vegiitable 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    No, they´re not installed in the clubs, that´s true. But what i really meant was that the Traktor s4 is a very professional controller that is used by many successful DJ´s. The dude asked if the controller could be used in clubs, of course it can! But if he asked if he would find a DJ controller in clubs then that would be another case.

  • @OfficialUltrastyler
    @OfficialUltrastyler 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @RealDJblaze No there's no delay in the video, it's just i have a hercules RMX and no matter if i plug it into my pc (which is powerful) or my laptop theres a delay in button presses. So using the cue button is near enough impossible. Thanks for the help though!

  • @stratzmusic
    @stratzmusic 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @wollhead if your only going to buy the S4 like me, all you need is the S4 and the software that comes with it. Thats It! well obviously you need a sound system of some sort, but in the long run, if you were to buy a mixer and turntables and soundcards and software, it equals out just buying the S4. hope this helped

  • @LordMcMPA
    @LordMcMPA 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review, man! Thanks for giving a solid overview of this tool. But seriously: how about turning down the volume of the track playing while you're explaining? xD

  • @Juss69Joshy
    @Juss69Joshy 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @RealDJblaze thank you for the info.

  • @nickcapone
    @nickcapone 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @RealDJblaze Ohhh, I see. And by another device I assume you are again referring to the Native Instruments Maschine?

  • @AviadAlushViolinist
    @AviadAlushViolinist 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    thank you !

  • @Danielvildhjarta
    @Danielvildhjarta ปีที่แล้ว

    Does this still works? The first generation of Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S4?

  • @DJDREXTV

  • @theycallmeQUINCY
    @theycallmeQUINCY 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    for mixing songs as a DJ like at home or at small parties whats better?

  • @e1er
    @e1er 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    ok thanks, but what happens now in the new version of traktor where sample decks are replaced with remix decks? what do the play buttons of the samples do now in the new version? thanks i hope u reply soon.

  • @Tsloane
    @Tsloane 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    whats the story with the microphone.. it it just the volume control u can use or can u apply it to a channel and set change the eq to suit your voice

  • @djkrypto1103
    @djkrypto1103 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    this working good with windows vista? i see your using it, i use it too , just wanna make sure, thanks

  • @nickcapone
    @nickcapone 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @RealDJblaze Oh so this is just for playing your music at shows and such. Well what are djs doing during a show when they look really busy as if they were creating the song as it goes?

  • @OfficialUltrastyler
    @OfficialUltrastyler 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Is there much delay or lag from pressing a cue button and actually hearing it? Or is that based on how powerful your pc is?

  • @pinkb7777
    @pinkb7777 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @wollhead
    Im 15 and actually just started djing, id prefer using something similar to the mixtrack pro by numark before using a traktor, and its really cheap too!

  • @michaellee2008
    @michaellee2008 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    so is it bit annoying that u have to switch mic phone and headphone in between? or is there any settings we can do which allow us to speak through headphone on traktor s4 software?

  • @laboxingdannyvega
    @laboxingdannyvega 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice review man!
    I am 16 years old and I have used older versions of Traktor with a Numark x6; but most recently I've been using a Numark NS7. I am not an Analog Dj but mainly a well prepared, clean, solid dj mixer. I am looking to buy this to try to do fancier stuff and minor analog tricks. But would you recommend it to me.?

  • @RobDeLarge
    @RobDeLarge 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dude great initiative, but haha WTF! turn the friggin' volume DOWN(!) while you're explaining!
    Thanks, Blaze!

  • @e1er
    @e1er 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Question: how can you have 4 track decks and 2 sample decks at the same time? ;O Traktor only supports 4 decks.
    My controller broke and im interested in buying a traktor controller and i was wondering why would i buy the s4 if the 2 extra decks are useless?. Thanks.

  • @imaadinosaur
    @imaadinosaur 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you need to use the disc when playing live or is that just to install it?

  • @e1er
    @e1er 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Okay, cool, thanks.

  • @mrelmitso
    @mrelmitso 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Traktor will indeed lag mid ranged PC's but on Mac it runs smoothly
    never had issues with their products (the buttons becoming less sensitive to touch or wearing out)
    just wondering why the platters are rubbish iyo

  • @darthvenom100
    @darthvenom100 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    how would you compare the s4 to the numark ns6?? which one would you buy if you wanted club standard??

  • @Juss69Joshy
    @Juss69Joshy 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    to use timecodes on this s4 do i need to upgrade to traktor scratch? or can i use the software that it comes with.?

  • @stevemacca5492
    @stevemacca5492 12 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @TwitcherDelic
    @TwitcherDelic 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Issues with the S4: Platters are rubbish.
    Traktor is temperamental and will lag most mid ranged PC's
    Takes a while for songs to read and load.
    Deck buttons have a lip around them making them less sensitive to touch, and the effects 1/2 buttons, as well as other frequently used buttons will wear out and become tedious to turn off and on quickly.
