Is any using the TTM 57SL, Mix Emergency, and a midi controller? If so, is it working well for you? If not do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,

oh i have so many...
oxygen 8
korg nanocontrol
launchpad
x-session pro
axiom 25
but for this application i mostly use the korg.
and actually, it's really unnecessary unless you want it for effect control.
the crossfader and up faders of the 57 are recognized by ME, so they fade video and audio.

U guys noticed any performance issueswhen using ME? IE. lagging audio, studdering videos or anything?

waveforms studder a bit every now and then but you can minimize it with a higher buffer setting. either way, it doesn't affect the video or audio at all.

Excuse my ignorance but why do you guys prefer ME over VSL? More transitions? Better video quality?

No sheeze Eloy? Honestly never tried it. They hit me up a while (long while back) and asked if I would like to beta test but I never was able to put in the time. Might have to give it a shot.

HELLOOOOOOOO!!!
FOGET ABOUT THE EFFECTS !!!! I HAVE THE 57SL AND VSL 2.0, AS WELL AS MIXEMERGENCY AND I HAVE TO SAY THAT THE ONLY REASON I GOT "ME" WAS FOR THE RECORDING OF MY SETS!!! YES RECORDING OF MY VIDEO SETS. SERATO IS COOL WITH THE EFFECTS AND THE REST, BUT MIXEMERGENCY MAKES YOU THINK TWICE ABOUT GETTING VIDEO SL. (IT DOESNT COME WITH THE RECORDING OPTION)
If you plan on getting Mix Emergency then I recommend getting a MIDI controller unless your mixer has MIDI plugs. If not I get an AKAI LPD-8 with your SL BOX
BUT if you have the 57sL then getting Mix Emergency would be able to read the fader and volume controls on the 57SL.
Like I said I have Both Mix emergency and VSL 2.0 ( hands down for recording MIx Emergency) but for non recording stick to VSL 2.0)

But what sense does it make getting both when you can just use ME non-recording? I think you're just mad because you probably found out about ME, AFTER you bought the Video SL plugin lol. If you're gonna make a recommendation like that give us reasons for your opinion. From what the other guys said, ME runs smoother with better quality and more transitions. I have a ttM57L and i need to record stuff so...

I will soon be doing a comparison video or at least a demo video of the effects that ME does it will be visual. ME and VSL both have their good points. I use both depending on what I want to do. Recording is no big deal to me as I can do it with Screen Flow or ME which I might do a comparison video of those two as well cause what most people fail to realize is that ScreenFlow is like a mini version of Final Cut Pro with timelines and the ability to trim edit, add video and add text..but that's another story... I would like to clear up a lot of things that people really don’t know. I use ME for the effects and the text feature. VSL text is cool but you can only apply to the video left or right, with ME it's applied to the center screen which means its always visible. So what I do is put my DJ name in the center,,,fade it out so it's faint and my name is always in the mix... It’s really simple if you have been using vsl you get tired of the same effects so you jump out and buy ME and you feel brand new... I will make it a point to post a vid today when I get off work with just effects...
