I’m lucky enough to have a friend with one of these controllers that is willing to lend it to me for a while to test out with my Traktor Scratch Pro software.

To start things off,

Easy setup in OS X. Class compliant drivers are always nice.

Was a little difficult to figure out how to get the LEDs on the controller to respond to traktors midi messages, but carefully reading the manual was all it took.

Audio quality isnt as clean as the soundcard in the Xone 4D that i typically use, but its decent enough for live use. I wish this thing was bus powered, but i guess the draw of the audio device coupled with the midi would be too much strain on some USB ports. Headphone preamp is kind of weak as well, but then again this controller/audio device is under $300.

To sum it up, you get what you pay for (in most cases). But with all these features, id expect a more expensive price tag. Not that i’m complaining. I’d seriously consider picking one of these up to have a more portable setup that is 1/10 the price of what the Xone 4d costs.

This is the live recording of Phase One Radio on Oct 29 2009. My first “real” radio show with my latest dj setup. Should be back on sometime soon.
