Wieso stinken? SSL würde sich immer noch zu einem guten Preis verkaufen lassen.
Meine Meinung ist, dass sich SSL einfach "direkter" oder "echter" anfühlt... klingt blöd is aber so. Bei Torq hatte ich sehr stark das Gefühl, es ist eher eine DJ Software a la Traktor mit zusätzlicher Vinyl Control.
Hast du Torq schon oder überlegst du es dir zu holen?
Kommt halt drauf an, wenn du jmd bist der direkt und regelmäsig damit im Club auflegt, oder dem die Scratch Performance und Vinyl Emulation am wichtigsten ist, dann würde ich SSL nehmen. Ausserdem kannst du für SSL fast jedes Notebook der letzten 3 jahre nehmen.
Wenn du eher produzierst oder sonst mit CDs auflegst und dir sowas wie scratchen total blöd vorkommt und nicht jeden Tag damit im Club auflegst, dann würde ich dir zu Torq raten. Es ist für solche Fälle vielseitiger und billiger. Ausserdem wird sich in Richtung stabilität schon noch was tun, ist ja noch Version 1.0.1 oder so. Torq will allerdings schon einen ziemlich aktuellen Rechner haben um damit flüssig arbeiten zu können.
Hier ein kleines Review von mir von skratchworx.com auf englisch:
I sold mine again, had it for about two weeks with control vinyls. it is a really cool product for coming fresh out of the lab, the scratch performance is really good, when it works.
But I had massive skipping problems in absolute mode, it´s way too sensitive towards needle dirt and noise. I had to go for new needles first to get it to work with absolute mode. the old needles which worked well with serato, didn´t work for torq in absoulte m. this has nothing to do with my ibook(g4 1,33 ghz 1.5gig ram) since absolute worked perfect with cdjs. torq switched often from absolute to relative itself when I was juggling round the beginning of the timecode signal, which I found very annoying.
I took it to the club three times and overall it was performing good, but relative mode only, skippings in absolute mode with fresh needles. I tested M44-7s and Ortofons, ortofons worked slightly better but still massive skippings.
the software was freezing at least one time per 5 hour set: I did get the spinning wheel of death which didn´t stop until I shut down torq. No audio dropouts though during software freeze. the song kept playing but I had to switch to normal vinyl cause I couldn´t select anything on the software. this also happend once as I searched my library (which takes veeery long).
another bug I had was when I put on a new song in relative mode, while the record was still moving a little bit, torq played the song backwards in a loop or something until I loaded the song again to the deck.
the keylock is integrated too bad... you have to do about three clicks to get it straight, not like your master tempo on your cdjs. this is a pain in the ass!! I was hoping for this to work the normal way. check out nemonic´s posts on djforums.com on this issue.
but don´t get it wrong, I had great fun with this thing too, in combination with a trigger finger it´s a lot of fun to use the loops, and the sampler. this can introduce a new way of djing. I like the quickscratch function a lot!
if m-audio manages to straighten out the basics like needle sensitivity and keylock, this will be a great tool and a competitor to which serato has to step up. I sold it because of my problems in absolute mode and because I still trust my serato which didn´t mess around a single time in over a year now.
