I’m looking for a controller to work with DVS in the similar way my x1 use to. Sadly I had the mk1 which no longer works with my Mac version so I’m on the market for a new controller. My setup is 2 x technics 1200’s and CDJ 1000s mk3 using timecode, somewhat old but working really well and is enjoyable.
The thing that I’m missing is hatches and loops, all fx will be in the mixer or external. If anyone has any recommendations on a controller that would work well with djaypro that would be great.
Looks like it’s a choice between Mixtour Pro and Xone K2’s. If anyone has any experience of either of these with a 4 deck dvs setup please shout.
For anyone else unsure, whilst trying to work this out I’ve started with my own keyboard shortcuts which has been really helpful to understand the controls and what I need out of this.
I’ve been using the DDJ SP1 for many years with different DVS systems. Started with Traktor, then Rekordbox and now DJay. It’s a pretty old controller but it is perfect for my needs. I don’t really use the FX much in the software so I’ve remapped the 6 FX knobs and buttons to control the stems mute/volume levels for each deck. You might be able to grab one for cheap on eBay.
