Pioneer new controller!

The thing is, its pioneer. itll cost the same as twitch and the S2 combined and have half the features.

Also: Take your midi/artist hate to DJforums or something, not here.

Respect, in all points mate.

I like pioneer stuff but if the T1 and S1 are indication then no thank you

I'll comment once more details are given. I'm done with teasers and leaks

CDJs will be in booths for many years to come, just like you see turntables but there isn't a king of the booth anymore. The thing people need to get over with is the "industry standard" concept. Stop caring so much about marketing and hype, use the tools that fit best your needs, like any other musician does.

Looks smaller than the other Pio's, which was a gripe with the Backpack brigade, and itch based i'm guessing from the lack of top knobs and those side knobs looking very like the itch effects Addon for the vci300.

Guess we'll see .. looks like a mountain of buttons though above the jogs, twitch style FX probably and sample decks :-S

Probably figured they should get in competition with smaller/popular existing controllers rather than just creating something horrendously expensive for the CDJ switchers (which they did nicely with the t1/s1 ).

The top knobs are there all lined up DDJ-T1 style if you mess with the curves in Photoshop.

i think its a 2 deck traktor controller to compete with NI's S2. Looks like someone said the hell to the NDA and spilled the beans to the other company.

[Jingr]

is it just me or do those buttons over the jogs seem a little flat. almost like a touch pad used on most android phones?

I'm hoping pioneer have learned a few lessons since the DDJ T1/S1 and have up'd their game a little. Eagerly anticipate this release.

My only comment on the controller vs dvs vs cdj debate (apart from "boring") is that if you're a pro dj your fans don't give a flying fuck what you are playing with. They just wanna her mint tunes played really loud!!! And the performers listed on the previous page all have thousands of followers who pay good money to see them every week who back up what I say!

Laonda and seitz need to chill.

If it's somewhere around $500, the jogwheels work perfectly (no sticker drift) and it has full length 100mm pitch sliders I might be interested!

But of course being a pioneer it will probably be very expensive
