The Dark Wind posted:How feasible is scratching on the Mixtrack? You're gonna have a pretty difficult time skratching with the Mixtrack. It's possible, but you have to get accustomed to the latency and the tiny low-resolution jogwheels. I'm sure if you put in tons of practice you could get to a decent level, but nothing like you can do with other controllers out of the box. I have a VCI-300 that I use when I'm traveling and it's perfect for cutting. This dude holds it down with the VCI-300: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgxanpIjawM

vanilla slimfast posted:Uh, no you can map midi controllers to serato. The NI Traktor X1 even comes with a mapping xml file for SSL Yeah, you can map a number of non-native controllers to be used in Serato, although the integration isn't the greatest. Check out this thread on the Serato boards for lots of info - http://serato.com/forum/discussion/334327

TheWevel posted:I don't know how many people on here use Serato Itch, but they released the Itch 2.0 Beta. Here are a few of the additions: It's about time, my VCI-300 has been collecting dust for a few months. Might have to break it out and play around with the new version.

fordan posted:On a related but slightly different question: are there any non-1200 turntables worth a drat? I really like Vestax decks a lot. I picked up a pair of PDX-A1s for $100 recently. They're built like tanks and have much higher torque than 1200s. If you can find any of the PDX series decks for a decent price, you should definitely pick them up. Also, the "Super OEM" decks, like the Stanton STR8-150s, are quite well-liked though I've never used them. But yeah, like someone else mentioned, get Techs if you're serious about djing out with vinyl as most anywhere you go is going to have a pair.

Nindoze posted:Rad, thanks.. so for getting into turntablism - mainly scratching, are there any cheaper decent options than the stanton str8150 I had my eye on - or is going cheaper inadvisable for that kind of stuff? Any of the Vestax PDX series (as I said in an earlier post, you can find the A1/A1s for $50-$100 each these days). I started on PDX-A1s and have since moved to 1200s but the Vestax decks are tanks. Better torque than a 1200 and a wider pitch.
