X-Session Pro good enough for scratch & Video ?

Dj D.ONE 7:04 AM - 13 July, 2008
I got a few questions about this...
Does anyone own a X-Session pro?

1. Is it good enough for scratching?
2. Can i adjust the fader curve?
3. Does it allow you to mix video using the crossfader for transitions in video?
4. When using a midi only mixer do i use the computers audio out?

(1. I know X-Session is not heavy enough for hardcore scratching but for basic technics like babys, transformers, and even flares it should work rigth?)

Yes, I own one. I used to use it with VDJ to control the video fader while using a normal mixer for audio. I have since retired it with the purchase of a DJM-800.

To answer your questions:

1. Fuck no
2. It doesn't have a fader curve, whatever software you use sets the curve.
3. Not sure what you mean... I set one of the extra knobs to select the transition.
4. Software dependent.

(1.) erm... it sucks bro. Don't do it.
