This is what your Macbook will look like, you can't use Traktor in fullscreen mode, but the menubar will be hidden, so it is close to fullscreen (didn't find a way to hide the titlebar yet).

This is how the Browser Mode can look like (actual screenshot of my 1280px screen).

yeah sorry mate, i kinda shot the reply off pretty quick as i was in a rush and probably should have been more concise and said to post a phone photo or video of it operating on your screen.. as thats what i meant by my comment

EDIT: nice work by the way!

this is some pretty neat thinking. Cool stuff. Hopefully stacked waves will be a layout feature one day.

this should make some of those serato fans change their mind (especially the ones stuck on traktors layout.......)

and i second the call for a youtube vid of this in action.

so you would be using decks a and c... so you would also need to edit your mapping a bit. shouldnt take too much time, but this is interesting

+1 for video

You can change which decks show where in TSP2.

hes talking about having say a controller like the VCI mapped to A/B normally

having to change the mappings deck focus so the left side was still side A and the rightside was focused on C so the crossfader an everything worked the way it should....with the layout hack.

atleast thats how i read it.

Oh man I love this idea! I have a Toughbook which I love, but I do admit that the screen is a bit small. I'm going to see if I can replicate this on it.

Well lame. There's no way to do that natively in Win7, but I did find an app that will do it.
