#TRAKTOR PRO 3 REVIEW SOFTWARE#

As a DJ and a software developer (not for NI), I'm telling you that Traktor DJ will replace Traktor Pro. I'm gonna disagree with all the other comments. But having closely followed up on them and all their announcements over the years, is why I made the above statement :) and the lack of support for their S5 and S8 is just shameful. And NI has been screwing quite much things over the last 2 years.

Though that professional one is the one expected to come out hopefully later this year (if COVID doesn't screws their plans.).įor the record, ain't no NI fan boy, although I have a quite a few of their Hw & Sw, which I generally love and enjoy. And this software isn't, by any means, the one intended for professional or more serious users. as it allows them already to test and QA it).

#TRAKTOR PRO 3 REVIEW CODE#

The 'Traktor DJ' program is a bedroom, generalistic, easy and straightforward to use piece of software that, apparently, is already making use of the new code base they are creating for the new Traktor Pro (which is actually free to use, and probably for a reason. And, on the other, and regarding Traktor itself, as it has been already stated around here, they are building the whole program from the ground, because legacy code is what is impeeding them to grow and evolve properly (which is also why they are loosing market share dramatically in favor of their competition.). NI might not be in its best shape, but they rose loads of money from investors a few years ago, that served much to roll out their release plans for all latest Traktor, Kontrol, Maschine and all those hardware equipment (and that aside of all their software updates, including TP3 and TDJ).ĪFIK, NI plans are, on a one hand, release a new somewhat unified piece of software that would make all their hardware equipment and software understand and speak to each other (meaning Maschine, Kontrol, Traktor, etc.). If they release a DDJ-1000mk2 with the features the mk1 is missing I might jump ship. I haven't yet because frankly the only Pioneer controller I sort-of like is the DDJ-1000 and I don't entirely like it. A lot of people are jumping to Rekordbox.

It could be another 4 years before it reaches the level of maturity that TP3 has taken so many to reach. The problem is: how long is it going to take? It could be another two years before the new Traktor Pro comes out, and then it will still be in its infancy. I remember when they added parallel waveforms, which apparently were bolted on by two developers who reluctantly volunteered to do it, as if Traktor was the last thing anyone at NI wanted to work on, which sort of made me think at the time they already had definite plans to ditch it and write a direct replacement from the ground up. So, even if they don't want to use the old codebase, they should definitely keep some of the old TP features and workflow. Kontrol Z1 / Kontrol X1 MK2 / Kontrol F1 / Kontrol S2 MK3 / Kontrol S3 / Kontrol S4 MK3 there's a lot to get your head around so lets break it down.I mean Traktor Pro ain't bad at all, it's just that it's weak in some areas.
