DJ TechTools focus on cutting-edge DJ technology.
And, like it or not, today, that means Traktor.
Serato are playing catch-up harder than ever, but that doesn't change the fact they're still playing catch-up in the new world where HID is replacing DVS.
They don't hide their affiliation with Native Instruments. Ean Golden appears in videos for them and just did their tour.
But at the same time they were very vocal about NI locking down control of the remix decks, and came out with their own 'hack'.
That makes them independent enough for me.
I found the Serato DJ review read as if it was written by someone who doesn't know Serato software very well... But maybe an outsider's perspective holds some value.
There are a lot of DJ focused websites out there, but I can honestly say that DJTT is the only one where I'm guaranteed to learn something new every week. Just this week alone I've started down a whole new road of live remixing thanks to the Bass Kleph and Mad Zach articles. Long may it continue.

All product endorsements and reviews have to be taken with a lot of skepticism.
That's putting it as nicely as possible.

Eh? I read the review. It laid out what was new and all the features, said it was a big improvement over ITCH. He compared the effects in Traktor to the new ones in SDJ, and he very factually stated that they are not even close to Traktor's level. 100% true Traktor fanboy or not. Not sure what you are reading between the lines. Review is pretty much on point with the facts.

The GUI is kind of subjective now. SDJ'S main gui is now almost as cluttered as Traktor. What always got to me was the options GUI. There are so many options in there you can probably get certified as a Traktor expert lol. If you been using Traktor for years this may be straightforward since you been through the evolution of change but a new user may find it intimidating.

customising the tracktor gui is not hard, but i still think overall that all of the Serato gui's (SL, Itch, DJ, Intro) just use much cleaner graphic elements that are easier to quickly identify and use

Also pioneer hardware is not "greater than Rane" the sound quality, the build, customer service...
REDSELECTER
6:35 PM - 18 November, 2012
I think the hardware is a toss up - Rane is def superior quality hardware, but feature and usability wise Pioneer beats them in some areas (think about the buttons on the 68)
but the Audio 10 etc are decent boxes
plus you have choice beyond NI hardware for Traktor Scratch certified stuff - think Pio, Ecler, etc. - this can be a good thing or bad thing, depending on the implementation.

The issue with that list is that the first 3 are debatable, and the rest are not.
I have a Traktor Scratch rig and have found it entirely stable; older versions were a bit 'crashy' for sure.
SSL library works better for me, but Traktor has auto populating of things like genre, and playlist favourites, which is nice. I suspect if I had not been a Serato user for so long I would get on better with the Traktor library.
GUI is definitely arguable either way. Again, my preference is Serato, but that's purely personal.
What is factual, is that Traktor's effects, midi and sample/remix decks are on an entirely different level to even Serato's latest work (DJ).
And to bring it back to the original point of the thread, that is the kind of stuff that DJ TechTools readers are interested in; so naturally they focus on Traktor.

Serato aren't even at the cutting-edge of video plugins for their own platform though...
I'm not saying Traktor is better. I have both platforms, and I only ever play out on Serato software.
The point is, that the things which matter to the DJTT readership are found in Traktor, not SL/Itch/SDJ. It's easy to see. Just go lurk around their forum for an hour. Not much talk of video over there, either.

I would have to disagree, I think more videos are coming out nowadays, just not on MTV. The future is going to be video/visuals. People what a whole show and visuals are a huge part of it. I see more clubs put in lcd tv's than lights now. The people that don't care about video are usually the ones that don't do video, like the DJ's that stuck to the old format of DJing.

I would say it's similar to the DJ/producer. As video/graphic editing programs get cheaper and easier, you'll see a lot more audio/visual guys.

Well of course, not... CAUSE THEY DON'T OFFER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I think also because Traktor seems to be used by more EDM guys. Plus, it's my understanding they delete anything that's negative on their site.

A lot of you seem to forget Ean Golden is at the TOP of the controllerist movement. As soon as he makes a mapping for the Pio for DJ all you haters will instantly be dick-riders. If you use Dicers you are an Ean Golden fan. Why are you so mad? If you're nice with it, it doesn't matter what you use. Serato DJ has a LOT of TSP like functions, especially SYNC. so does that make anybody that uses DJ a button masher? Just asking because a lot of you act like he slapped your grandmother with his dick. Use what you use and stop acting like broken hearted bitches because someone else doesn't like to use what you use.

I feel it has EVERYTHING to do with the original post. People are mad because the uses TSP. He doesn't hide the fact he uses TSP. If Serato had midi in and out he would do something for it too. I was using him as an example because of him and his team's expertise in midi mapping and hacking DVS programs. Most companies that make controllers give them to him FIRST. This discussion started because someone got their feelings hurt because he told the truth. How many people ACTUALLY read the review? I own SSL and TSP, so I don't really give a FUCK which one I use, or which one YOU use. I just asked about all the hate and booty-hurt feelings. Sorry if you got into your feelings. Stop looking on DJTT for info on SSL/DJ, ask the expert, KONIX.

The main knock on TSP users is they NEED sync to DJ and it doesn't have video. MOST of the things in DJ are things SSL users asked for. Do a search on this forum and tell me I'm wrong. Again why not ask the Serato experts on how to do things on SSL/DJ? Why so sensitive?

you sir are extremely mistaken. i look at the screen just as much as if i was doing an audio only set. also i see people dancing on the packed dancefloors, not staring at tv screens.
if you don't do video, that's you. don't knock others doing it. it's added value that you and your clients don't see and that's fine. but elsewhere people see the value and there are those willing to supply that demand.

Again, says that DJ who doesn't mix videos.
Listen dude, those who mix video right know that it ain't about the video. It's about the music. We're not staring at the screen. We're concentrating on the music just like any other DJ on the planet. The difference is that patrons can enjoy videos while they're lounging or dancing or whatever. Does Traktor offer video? No. Does Serato? Yes.
End of story. Whether it doesn't suite your needs or not, that's a different question.

If Serato implemented midi out they would be on top. I really wish they would tell us why they don't. It's obviously a strategic decision or something. Granted it's a stupid one. Midi out would change the game. I'm so desperate for it I bought traktor the other day. It's cool but doesn't have the hands on control serato does. I use a livid controller so I get lights but they are not responsive.
WHY NO MIDI OUT SERATO?????????

Serato doesn't need one. Their forum is already a hive of free comment and information.

If they had a more open and useful forum, I doubt DJTT would exist in it's current form.

Heh djtechtools was started as a controllerist site focusing on the controllerist movement. The fact is Traktor is a lot more open when it comes to tinkering and programming through MIDI IN/MIDI Out. It lets you control all the functions and output status LEDs etc. This is why DJTECHTOOLS is more Traktor focused.
If Serato was a open ecosystem (instead of closed hardware) there would be a similar site too. You want to fault them for being a bit more biased to Traktor, go ahead but inherently Serato does not promote open hacking and tinkering like Traktor does.

They do let you submit articles if they are well written and backed with experience of the subject talked about. If some of you on this forum submitted I think you would get some published. A lot of the hacks and mappings come from the readers and users. I bet someone over there will have a hack for the NS7 before the official upgrade. Maybe someone over at MIXXX hack DJ/SSL. I mean, you all talk about it, now be about it.

Not probable. People have been trying to map the NS7 to Traktor for a few years now with no success. This is well documented in the ITCH forums. Simply stated, the platters cannot be mapped.

No. Quartz is the one who lead the charge to map NS7 to Traktor Pro and released his mappings publicly (as well as the midichart. I still have all the files myself). As the video itself mentions, it was experimental and extremely flawed. That's the best descriptor possible. That's pretty much where it stalled at.

Well, for one, if you were to look around the Traktor & DJTT forums, you would see that the demand for Traktor to add video is minimal to say the least. Traktor primarily appeals to DJs that play Dance Music. Most Parties/Clubs that cater to Dance Music, that are worth their weight in salt, have their own dedicated Video Artists that take care of the visuals.
So, now that that's been covered, the reason Serato are playing catch up is because their products can't do this......

I love Serato for these reasons too, but how is that relevant?
I'm sure in a few years I'll know Traktor just as well as I know ScratchLIVE.
I'm already getting used to the Library Management.
As for layout, you can configure the GUI how you wish in Traktor....another thing that Serato needs to implement.
Listen this isn't a this/vs./that debate. Serato are playing catch up to Traktor....you only need to look to ITCH's demise for evidence. They had to scrap it, just so they could create a platform that could compete w' Traktor's functionality.
Hey, I, and others, asked for Serato to implement a lot of what Traktor has now, even before N.I. did....so the blame lies w' Serato for not continuing to innovate, becoming stale, and for falling so far behind.

Listen this isn't a this/vs./that debate. Serato are playing catch up to Traktor....you only need to look to ITCH's demise for evidence. They had to scrap it, just so they could create a platform that could compete w' Traktor's functionality.
I dont think thats why ITCH was 'scrapped'. It served its function......

itch was the child serato created to test the controller market. They saw an opportunity in the market place for such software. Serato DJ is the more polished version of itch. traktor is a great product in many ways but for people like myself and others here, the lack of video is a major turn off. DJTECHTOOLS super serves traktor users because that's what they choose.

People in 2007 said video is the future and will be demanded. Yeah not so much. It's a lot of effort and hdd space for a very cheesy end product. It may be for others but not for me. Sheet, I don't use either ask or tsp2 anymore and I couldn't be happier. No updates no new controllers etc. just a focus on the tunes. I got wrapped up in all the gear and software hype for a long time and I have seen the other side. (Because there wasn't a laptop blocking my view.)

I still support Serato since 2005
Dang i miss the simplicity of 1.4 lol
And therein lies the divide. I too have been on ScratchLIVE since those days (1.3), but this is the niche that Serato have cornered themselves into. For "simplistic" track to track mixing, Serato reigns supreme....for innovative/taking DJing forward type shizz, Traktor is leaps & bounds beyond Serato. Hence the reason for DJTT being Traktor Biased. DJTT is a Blog/Forum dedicated to pushing the boundaries beyond what DVS had initially intended. So, it's only natural for them to gravitate towards Traktor which offers that functionality.
Can any of you SV/ME DJs do visuals like this?
youtu.be
Dedicated Visual Artists are much better suited to provide the visuals than the "cheap" video effects represented in Serato_Video/Mixed Emergency!!

What? These kats are manipulating video effects in real time.......I've never seen a DJ using SV/ME do shit like this. All I've seen from those types were so called VJs mixing MTV videos....WEAK!!!
You see, this is what divides us Dance Music kats from you Hip-Hop kats. I honestly hate the division, being that we're both DJs, and essentially, we're doing the same thing....rocking crowds, and making people move. But, for some reason, I get this vibe from the Hip-Hop DJ community that you are content with mediocrity. That you see any advancement of Technology beyond what you think is appropriate.....mixing, scratching, etc.., as heresy to "true" DJing! God forbid a DJ want to focus on just mixing tunes, and building a vibe....NO, if he/she isn't mixing video, and scratching like a turntablist, they aren't "keeping it real"......haha, whatever!!
I realize I have gone waaaaay off topic, but in a way, it is kind of relevant to what is being discussed in this thread.
Damn, DJTT for being Traktor biased because they support a platform that promotes pushing shit beyond simple DVS.

First of all, you're comparing two different things. these guys are talking about mixing music videos, you post up a video of floating cubes and bubbles. If you're going to talk down to people, at least get the subject down first.
Condescend much? Contradict much? "Divide" with your own statements much?
First it's "us" Hip Hop guys and we're content with "mediocrity", yet if we see someone just mixing and not doing more we look down on it? Which is it?
And aren't the people who disagree with this a thread the ones going on about how controllerists are pushing digital DJing so much further than the cavemen who just use turntables? You make no sense.
I'm not going to say "I hate to break it to you" because people are so full of shit when they say that, they actually love to break it to people when they're wrong, me I don't hate or love, I'm just going to break it to you...
I'm not a Hip Hop kat, I'm not just a Dance kat, I'm not just a Reggae kat, I'm not just a Rock kat or an anything kat, I play music, all different kinds, so there's no you and your buddies vs. me and my buddies here, I don't give a shit what you play in this conversation. Don't put up a video of dudes floating bubbles and say some shit like "can any of YOU do that?" when yes in fact they can.
But that's not the point of Serato Video to these guys, it's to play actual music videos and they have crowds that enjoy it, you might not but professional Serato VJs can make a good piece of money in comparison to Djs who don't.
But in your eyes they should hire visual artists instead for a friggin' video dance party. Can your "visual artists" sync those same music videos to the audio without some big rehearsal, complete with to the millisecond cues and set in stone playlists? (Who was that recently that got caught playing a pre-recorded mix and blamed it on his visual guys?) Why bother when Serato VJs can just play their own visuals on the fly depending on the crowd.
Two different animals and the reason I SMH'd was because I couldn't believe someone would actually compare the two.
But I thought you just wanted to mix tunes and build a vibe? Again, which is it?

And everyone going on about playing catch up, how is one playing catch up to another when they're on two different roads. When it comes to turntable Djing, I don't need all that shit half of you "think" you do, yet don't even utilize yourself. It's like all these guys that go on about "focusing on other things" so they can be "creative" but are still just slinging Rihanna records to douchebags 3 nights a week.
You want to go be creative after needing somebody in a magazine to tell you how to, you go do that with the device that was intended for all that, don't let the product that wasn't stand in the way of your groundbreaking takeover of the scene as we know it.

As I said, I was drunk...haha.
LOL nah not you BA, it's all good over here. I was talking about the other guy.

Dedicated Visual Artists are much better suited to provide the visuals than the "cheap" video effects represented in Serato_Video/Mixed Emergency!!
Um, I can do that and more with SSL / ME / QTZ
+1, a lot of those visuals are actually quite simple. With SL and ME you can get even more info from the track playing, like position, velocity, clean eq, track names, bpms, and current beat, many vj apps only have the audio to work with.

I didin't want to get into it here. But there are a lot of major benefits you get by controlling your own visuals. Video sync with the actual video, people get pretty hyped about seeing their favorite artist singing the song...etc. I edit a majority of my own videos, so I use a combination of visuals and the original video. The thing I've noticed about VJ is the visuals they use sometimes gets really stale and repetitive.

LOL And who are you again? Profile check... nothing.
Nah, I think most people after a having a few know not everything is as serious as it seemed at the time, so they laugh and shrug it off rather than starting another day on left over bullshit. I don't think I've ever had a run in with BA before but out of any conversation this is definitely not one for either of us to hold a grudge over. You on the other hand, seem to be still carrying feelings over from another time and place LOL. I don't know what to tell you dude.
I've gotten into heavier debates than this one and still walked away shaking hands, for some reason I get to you personally though and that's kind of weird.
i will never be the one dj to rule them all. or the one dj to even say some dumb shit like that. you are the best and im sorry i offended you.

Been asking for that one for years... I still do love Serato but they're getting their asses handed to them in terms of advancement..seems like NI read our suggestions more than Serato.

Video is important depending on what you're doing. I was spinning last night and because I had visuals and information I could see people checking it out.
The place where I was at has four tv's surround the dance floor area and projectors available as well.
It makes a difference for sure.

some people like juggling 3 balls on their corner, they make a fine living doing it and are happy in their own world, look how many 3 ball jugglers there are? they are everywhere!
I prefer 5 balls, and if i get a chance I like to light them on fire.
doesen't mean my 3 ball juggling ability suffers or anything...matter of fact my 3 ball juggling ability has to be even more on point to avoid scrutiny from people who dont know anything about advanced juggling and just see the fire in the air.
