Bundled with VDJ? I didn't see that one coming lol

[xtianw]

wow theyre gonna ship with vdj.

ok that makes sense to keep the price down.

i was right about the back being the laptop under feature

i still think im right about it being headed to the apple store. its almost like it was designed with that in mind.


im going to guess a 499 price tag.

The visual feedback on the platters is actually pretty sweet.

I actually don't mind this controller. Clearly aimed at entry level but could be solid.

Depends on soundcard quality etc

[MrPopinjay]

Holy shit xtianw, I'm completely on board about the apple store thing now. This could make a hell of a lot of money...

Look at all the finger prints on the jogs...

virtual dj o_O well yea that was a bit shocking. But i can see what pioneers is doing they're targeting the average joe with this controller and trying to get more noobs to enter the scene and then progress to their cdjs :/ but pioneer ain't never gonna get a grip on the controller market with products like this. And thats why i love controllerism it's soo open and you get soo many options.

I'm a little surprised they didn't use mixvibes like they did with their rekordbox software. I thought those two companies might partner up and make something interesting.

[VanDerWAVY]

hmmmm

shipping with Virtual DJ? didnt see that one coming, thought it'd come bundled with Traktor LE or summat

if its around the £200 mark it'll sell pretty well i reckon, i'd even give it a punt at that price ha

not too excited about the look of it though, they could have done with making it look a bit more 'pro-level'

will be interesting to see what their middle of the range product will look like (ie just above this and just under the DDJ-S1/T1)

[DoubleG]

this is gonna go head to head with the s2, twitch, but the s2 and twitch got a advantage, they're shipped with better software in my opinion
