To me the most interesting thing about this isn't the loop roll stuff -- it's that this thing can communicate bi-directionally with Serato. The controller "knows" which cue points are active for a track, which to my knowledge can't currently be done with another controller because Serato doesn't currently send that data out.
@DubSpot i figured it out. i just assigned the loop rolls in midi for the shift layers. also do you have problems with the non usb connected dicer going dark on u? been happening to me quite a bit.
try using a powered usb hub to give them both enough power, because at one point i had my soundcard plugged in and the dicers ,and the dicers wouldnt work until i plugged in a usb hub.
There was a DJ that did a promo for the novation dicer years ago. He was really good but i cant find the video and I forgot who does the dj was. Does anybody know who I might be talking about?
DJ Tech allows the DJ to worry about other things. So if he is using auto-beat matching then he better have all of his songs key-matched and arranged in a musically appealing manner, he better also be chopping it up and effecting the audio, and optimally he will have edited and remixed the songs he is playing as well. I think it is much easier to send a youtube comment than it is to DJ in the 21st century. soundsofjasontorres.blogspot.com
Love to see new dicers with effects on it.😊

@jason torres, you are spot on! being a good DJ is not as easy as some people think..
What if I want a 32 beat loop how can u make that happen using this?
how can i get it so that when the loop roll releases its from where the loop roll sample is instead of where it would be without the roll?
very nice.... could you please tell me the name of that dub track?
I'm using a Numark mixtrack (non-pro) with virtual dj Le. i was wondering if Dicer works for virtual dj also?
i like the idea of serato having something just for their product, but i like the traktor x1.

whiteballoons, you get that loop roll effect by pressing control alt 1-5. the midi is just assigned the send the same signal that combo does.
@b1asphemer there is the name in the video^^ @ 1:29
@DubSpot verissimo!!!
Where can I get lil wayne samples? Can't find a good place for vocal samples. @DubSpot
@doctorshabs set a cue point and jump back when you have reached the 32nd beat. ;)
freakin sweet.
looks like a nice easy-to-use product. but for sixty or so more dollars you might as well get the Kontrol X1.
also, i feel like that is just a beat repeat controller for serato.
Dj Jazzy Jeff brought me here
eel ??????????????? haha
