Midi Controllers functioning as stand-alone analog mixers.

[mindwarp]

Hey everyone

I am looking for a 4 channel midi controller for Traktor that can also operate as a turntable analog mixer, like independent from the computer. Best would it be if i could setup a digital vinyl system on top of that.

I was looking at DENON DN-MC6000mk2, but i heard it's a mess to make it work with Traktor.

Please send any suggestions and inputs my way, i very much appreciate.

Thanks :001_wub:​

Seems like the new Kontrol S8 would be THE perfect match for your needs:
-4 ch standalone Mixer
-Controller for Traktor
-Traktor Scratch (DVS) enabled - you just need to buy timecode records.

Besides from that you could buy a traditional Traktor Scratch certified mixer (Denon DN-X1600, Pioneer DJM-900nxs) + controllers (e.g. 2x Kontrol X1 MK2).
But that's going to be much more expensive!

Thanks for your help!

I was wondering if the Traktor Kontrol S4 MK2 also has Traktor Scratch (DVS) enabled? I could maybe save half of the money i would spend with the S8

Yes, you can use it for Traktor Scratch, but it will always require a computer to work!

I guess that would be ok...

Just one last question, i could then play vinyl's (traditional, not time coded) and use the S4 as a mixer for the decks, but connected to a computer?

Just making it sure, sorry, a bit late and new to the digital stuff

Yes, that is going to work!
