really need some help please

Hi guys i really need your help,im about to buy traktor pro 2,can it record first of all?

and im going to buy the mix track pro traktor compatiable,and the kontroller x1 and the traktor pro 2 software

can i use the mixtrack pro and the x1 at the same time,and can i record my mixes onto my laptop or will i need a soundcard and will i have to map everythink for my x1 and mixtrack pro? please reply thanks XD

 

TP2 has a record function yes.
Yes you can use several devices within the software.
No as long as one of your controller has a soundcard you don't need another one.
Will you need to map everything? Not necessarily, there are several tsi available around the net. But you may have to map your units if you want more specific functions. It will depend on what you want to do really.

 

thanks for the help a couple more things,what are tsi's? and do you know if mixtrack pro has a built in soundcard?

 

tsi are traktor's files used for mappings, etc..
As for the second question, are you kidding me, please take a cup of google it yourself

 

haha cheers dude was just wondering if you knew where can i get these tsi files? and do you know any good laptops £200-300?

 

wow, dude you ask some really silly questions, please accept -yul- s cup of google it yourself and do a bit of reading.

.tsi (traktor settings infomation) *i think*

mixtrack pro soundcard? yes

.tsi files are located on controller manufacturer websites. probably on here too.

laptops for 2-300 ebay....i have a nice dell inspiron for sale and a toshiba l450d. ill sell you the dell for 200 or the toshiba for 250

dell, vista home basic, 2gig ram, 2.6ghz cpu, 512 graphics, 240gb hdd runs ssweet as a nut, set back to factory settings and fully tweaked ready for dj work.

toshiba, 7 home premium, 2 gig ram, dual core 2.2ghz upgraded cpu, hdmi, 240gb hdd. 512 graphics. back to factory settings, fully tweaked and ready to work.

these come with no dj software installations. unless they are of free liscence.

 

To you there stupid,to me there important,iv bought myself a laptop now so does that mean that i can record with the mixtrack pro and i will not have to buy the traktor pro software just to record?

and does traktor pro even have more effects then the usual traktor?

 

hiya, erm as far as im aware you can record your performance with the softwares built in recorder. i know this is possible on VDJ so it should be possible on traktor LE/ME.

there is a record button on the menu bar at the top of the software window. just hait that. there is a chance you may have to setup your recording prefereces in traktors settings first. but hit the button first and see if it recodrs. if it does then leave it as is or you can change the recording filepath.

 

Search Function is your friend and will answer all your questions. You just have to do a modicum of leg work.

 

+1 but hey, some newbies reffer to just ask than read tons of postings.

to be fair, when i was a newbie i preffered to ask questions than sitting reading for 5 hours to find out most of the posts were irrelevent.

i think its easier to answer the newbie questions and get the guys up and running. once that bits done, they begin to learn and want to know more so they start researching. i dont thing theres one single person here who can say they covered all the theory before they started.lol.

 

thats my point i can ask questions as im new to this and get my answer strait away or read through posts that arnt even realevent to my question so this is why i ask people who have knolege of what there talking about,so thanks for the help guys much apreciated,but one more thing well probs a few more XD


does traktor pro have more effects then le? il be useing traktor instead of vdj as im going to buy the mixtrack pro and the x1 kontroller

 

the mixtrack pro and x1 both work with vdj too ...

 

but i really like the look of traktor but all i really want now is to know if traktor le can record and it had about 20 good effects that arnt repetitive XD

 

Traktors ability to combine effects into chains will give you more then enough room for new original and interesting effects.

I wonder, though ... why don't you *simply* download the demo and try it for yourself ? I mean ... that would answer all your questions about traktor at least.

 

because ild rather find out from people who use it properly no point downloading to see the effects when i can ask people,so traktor pro is what i need for recording and effects and the mixtrack pro and the x1? is that a good setup?

 

on the same token johnny boy, physicall learning is a far more fun way to learn things. after all you can ask as many questions as you want but without practice its not going to sink in.
