One of the problems that occur more often with the controller for DJs is the delicate matter of configuration: the manufacturers of course tend to minimize the issue and through advertising, demos and send testimonial the message of "everything is easy, automappato now." Unfortunately it is not, or at least not always. Who
approach to this new type of technology, especially because it allows for a very large set of features and capabilities at a very affordable cost, must take into account that you will have to maneuver easily between drivers, upgrades, configuration and MIDI recordings online. Nothing to worry about, but in addition to learning how to use the software features you need to also learn the proper procedures for its configuration.
automap Usually the procedure is working correctly, so once installed the software included in the package and installed the driver for the controller in a few minutes you can record the program and start mixing procedure auto.
Here is the first part of the proposal a tutorial for installing the controller Reloop Digital Jockey Pro ships with Traktor LE, if you open the page on youtube the video will pass automatically to the following parts:
More generally the critical points of installations are always the same: the sound card and MIDI control. Often it compatibility inconsistencies may arise, it is therefore necessary to look for updated drivers such as the controller for your operating system (Mac, Windowos XP, Vista, 7 to 32 or 64 bit ...) and learn how to import your MIDI configurations. All manufacturers as well as developers of software release driver updates and preconfigured mappings that can be downloaded from the internet and then loaded on an application. It is also necessary to learn to make changes to these according to the functions we use most frequently on our software is not always the controls will be completely pre-configured to our liking.
Normally the purchase of the controller you can easily follow the instructions in the installation process, but the case of computer hardware and there is never absolute certainty that everything is working properly. Furthermore, if it continues in the digital DJ in the near future we will certainly install the most complete programs in functions than those proposed in the package con il controller, potremmo dover formattare il pc, vorremmo magari fare delle modifiche alle impostazioni: per questi motivi prendere confidenza con i driver, le precedure di registrazione, la configurazione della scheda audio e dei segnali MIDI è assolutamente indispensabile. Tutorial, forum, video (nella maggior parte dei casi in inglese) saranno quindi inesauribile fonte di informazioni e di risoluzione dei problemi, oltre ad utilizzare l'assistenza diretta dei distributori (di cui trovate un elenco sulla parte destra del nostro blog) che normalmente offrono un servizio di assistenza.
In questo panorama un po' confuso gli unici controller che effettivamente risultano più "user friendly" sono i prodotti concepiti completamente with the software with which they are sold, this is the case of branded products Serato ITCH, this software company has in fact a particular philosophy: through commercial arrangements with manufacturers of high-end controller (VCI300 Vestax, Numark NS7-V7, Allen & Heath DX) once installed the CD and plugged in the USB controller the whole system is ready to work with the assurance that every aspect of software is already mapped and ready for use as the configuration of the audio signal. Native Instruments with the console S4 is moving towards the same approach.
If you own all these concepts are difficult parts can be taken into account including alternatives: the market of products DJ offers a wide range of products that must be connected to a PC ...
