Wild-Wolf

Is someone using Traktor ? I realy would like to learn some new tricks with that software and i could bring my Numark Mixtrak Pro with me.

Yes, Wild Wolf will be displaying Traktor with the Kontrol S4
I will be displaying Virtual DJ 5.2 Pro for a more entry level setup

old lappy (2007) with XP, it just runs better and is far more stable than the newer versions :3
its far simpler and more accurate when calibrating and mapping out keys on a keyboard for example
6 and 7 just added a few new features that i don't need or even use, made it consume more CPU and RAM... they more or less rewrote the program from the ground up and made it worse

So it seems my version will be different than yours... but it doesn't matter, as long as I learn from it... (Still having little problems maintaining BPMs n such...)

I shall watch and learn!  #p

it wont be much difference =)
a bit of changes to the layout on screen, a few new commands and a few new buttons but other than that, its all the same

Wild-Wolf

In the end, it's just: twist some dials, push some buttons and move some sliders and hope, that it sounds what leaves the other side  ;D

I second that. The audience doesn't care what kind of setup you use. The audence cares for a custom crafted music experience! You need to find the tool that will let you achieve that goal without getting in your way, and being the most fun to use at the same time.

In that regard, I can only recommend the S4 :)
yours,

the sad part is that most venue bookers aim to book CDJ users
