Traktor Or Serato For Vinyl

I ve been spinning vinyl for about a year now and i finally have enough money to buy a serato sl2.

Traktor or serato for vinyl.

Serato waveforms are different from traktor waveforms serato dj uses the classic serato stacked or parallel waveforms and allows you to configure them in four different ways. Traktor includes this feature while serato djs will need to opt for the us 29 serato play expansion pack. Serato dj vs traktor pro 2 the traktor pro 2 dvs. I mean serato has a ton of different color options for their time code vinyl.

The traktor pro 2 dvs works just like seratos dvs using encoded vinyl or cds. To use traktor pro 2 as a dvs you will need to buy the traktor scratch add on. Serato dj focuses mostly on fundamental mostly technical issues contained in only eight available tabs. The traktor scratch a6 comes with everything you need.

Having used serato and traktor every weekend for two years each i can tell you they both do the same thing and the best one depends on your preference and how you like your workflow. Anyone out there know if there are any sources i e not native instruments for traktor control vinyl specifically colored vinyl. Two phase and bpm control matched matching screens. You ll also need a supported sound card.

I have the basic ni black and a set of ni clear vinyl for traktor but am looking for some cooler alternatives beyond the red blue black white and clear that ni offer. Whilst it is a little less geeky in its implementation the maths that allows you to chop and change any song without altering the underlying harmonics is still present. I like serato s clean layout crate organization vertical wave forms and no nonsense effects. Traktor is just as multi purpose as serato but as with every product it has its own specific strengths too.

Serato dj pro has big interactive vinyl spinning decks. Serato dj behaves more analogously puristically and thus more simply. The thing is i love the feel of actual vinyl i love not having to rely on a computer and the entire reason i bought two technics was because the controller i had before didn t feel like a real instrument. One of the biggest changes that version 3 brought to traktor pro was the inclusion of traktor scratch and the ability to use their dvs control with virtually any sound card.
