    Love your explanation Mojaxx as always. I know this uncomplicated question probably warrants an uncomplicated reply.. but it’s complicating me! Can I just confirm if the XP1 or SP1 for that matter can be used for one shot samples internally. For example, acapellas whilst 2 decks (with only two turntables) are playing?

    Hi, congratulations for your video, I wanted to ask you something about the DDj-XP1 and the XDJ-RX2 console, how can I connect the DDj-XP1, to the XDJ-RX2? I ask you this question because I have an XDJ-RX2, but I don't understand how to connect the DDj-XP1 controller to the XDJ-RX2 !! Could you please help me understand how to connect these two hardwers ?, Thank you in advance

  • @richardwilliams1310
    @richardwilliams1310 4 года назад

    If you want to try out each of the major DJ software ecosystems, how would this setup go? Reloop Elite & 2 RP8000Mk2 each with Phase Essentials, Pioneer DDJXP1 above the mixer and 2 Pioneer XDJ700 above the turntables. Buy Traktor Pro and maybe Virtual DJ too. You may also need a Traktor Kontrol X1 MK2 or midi map the Pioneer for use with Traktor. Then you would have most bases covered for running DVS, playing vinyl or playing media from the XDJ700 media players

      Jack Of All Trades You can sequence the sampler with any hardware, that’s built in to the software. There just aren’t any default controls for that on the XP1.

    Will it work with CDJ 2000NXS2 and DJM 900NXS2. I saw somewhere that it does not work fully when stand alone. I just wanna check if it will work fully with my console adding rekorbox dj.

    • @Mojaxx
      @Mojaxx 6 лет назад +3

      ramy's rhythm It does, I tested that setup, and I’m annoyed I forgot to mention it!
      The thing is, in standalone mode the XP1 cannot expand upon what the players can already do, so you’re limited to 8 cues per deck, and there are no Pad Fx, Slide FX, etc. The whole layout is a different and a lot of stuff isn’t used.
      For me, it would be a hard sell at $250 just for that use - even though it does ‘work’ fine.

    @ls4life544 6 лет назад

    Rekordbox DJ is a beast. Only three thing missing before it can become the top DJ software base on funtionality. Number one, the use of the camelot key notation by default. Number to add some thing similar to serato flip as an option and the number three add on feature mix in and out cue point like traktor has. By the way rekordbox auto censoring feature is a winner.

    • @Mojaxx
      @Mojaxx 6 лет назад

      Landy Delossantos I agree about the Camelot thing, for sure. Have you tried the sequencer in the sampler? It’s not Flip but it’s a similar idea. And as for your last point, you might want to check out the new public beta on the Pioneer DJ forum...

    • @ls4life544
      @ls4life544 6 лет назад

      The sequencer is a good a option for creating rhythm from your sample but it is not good for in the fly remixing or jumping thru the track and create mashup. Well we can not have it all but the flip option would be nice.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    • @anttiskate
      @anttiskate 6 лет назад

      Have you tried it? I think it's way more feature packed than Serato with a modern and very powerful browser, and most importantly, it's stable. Even though DVS isn't as good, the actual program is better. That is, coming from Serato DJ.

    • @ClevelandTerry
      @ClevelandTerry 6 лет назад

      anttiskate hmmm. I’m both a dvs and controller user so dvs is important to me. When you say it isn’t good what do you mean. Also it looks like rkb five brings them inline with Serato DJ but with a better browser.

  • @anttiskate
    @anttiskate 6 лет назад

    My only wish is that professional review sites such as DJCity would review the actual DVS performance. I bought the DJM-250mk2 mostly for trying out the DVS functionality. From my experience, the DVS performance certainly isn't professional quality or anywhere close Traktor or Serato. Slow drags become choppy and the "keylock" (master tempo) sounds absolutely horrible on lower pitches. Absolutely essential to anyone playing hip hop with mixing between varying tempos. Advanced scratching and studio work becomes a no-go. Even basic things like adjusting cue points with the DVS record is just horrible since it can't register small record movements. Sad that it seems Traktor has abandoned their DVS platform, and Rekordbox hasn't adressed the DVS performance despite the numerous updates RB is getting. Please, for the sake of us DVS users, do a proper review and hope Pioneer starts giving a ___k instead of just treating DVS as a check list feature.
    The weird thing to omit the knobs for controlling effects on the XP-1 is that on the DJM-250mk2, pad fx are not post line fader. It makes using post fader (the proper fx section on the top of the GUI) effects on the 250 pretty much pointless, since they are inconvenient to use on a keyboard. MIDI mapping was to be found pretty buggy with using a DJ-Tech CTRL. Actual mapping works well, but brings about horrible UI bugs, for example messes up keyboard shortcuts for cue points after a short time (press cue point 2 and it triggers 3, both on the controller and keyboard shortcut). Only unplugging and restarting RB resolves the issue. After you pointing out the missing pots, lost all interest in a controller the size of laptop, but without the ability to control all RB features...
    Sorry for the long rant, keep up the good work. :)

    • @Mojaxx
      @Mojaxx 6 лет назад

      anttiskate I’m curious as to whether you’re using actual Rekordbox control vinyl with the software? Because with that, I’ve found DVS performance to be pretty much spot on.
      Serato vinyl, not so much - but that’s not supposed to be compatible, it ‘kinda’ works but not by design.
      RBDJ is by no means perfect (although nor is anything), and I’ll be taking a closer look at it again around the release of 5.1, but in my testing (gigs, at home, and in the lab) DVS performance has not been an area of disappointment for me.

    • @anttiskate
      @anttiskate 6 лет назад

      Thanks for the reply.
      Yes, I'm using RB vinyl. It's not that the DVS doesn't work as intended (I've used it with the 850, S9 and 250 at gigs), but it feels like it's just not there yet. They made improvements, but it's very noticeable on minute/slow movements, like adjusting cue points with the vinyl. Just one experiment to try out:
      1) I have my stickered record at 12 o'clock and have set a sample there.
      2) Release the sample and rewind with a very (very) slow backward drag.
      3) At some point the software loses track (but you still continue slowly back to the 12 o'clock position).
      4) Release, and the software and jumps back to the correct position, but you hear the sample twice (stutters).
      I'm very pleased with RBDJ for most of my DJing needs, but there's some DVS-specific things I miss from Serato, like sticker lock and controlling cue points using the vinyl. And I would very much like to turn the beat grid visibility completely off, since it's more of a nuisance when playing anything organic (jazz, funk, etc).
      Anyway, keep up the great work on the videos. :)
