At SonicBoomBap.com we know DJing is just as important as Beatmaking. It’s the foundation to Beatmaking. So why not open your heart to Native Instruments TRAKTOR DJ. Plus you can do all of this from the palm of your hands. For the time being, the iPad is the device ruling the mobile music market and something like this can revolutionize how djing is done. My neighbor is a dj and he tells me about the days of lugging crates of records to party after party. Vinyl at the time was the only media that a person could manipulate in real-time with their hands.
I remember those days very well because I use to DJ when I was a teenager. I use to have the backseat of my car loaded with records. Sometimes I forgot to make space for my turntables. Kids today have no idea of what DJs of the past did to get the party started. In fact, I use to get in clubs free just because I knew the DJ plus he or she needed help lugging crates. You can’t do this know. Thanks Native Instruments for the closing the get in free hole.
I know Serato was something certain DJs cringe even mentioning the word. My neighbor was one of em. He is just crossing the tide over and here come Traktor DJ to rattle the room. It looks like Apple rules again when it comes to apps being an instrument for music. I think Google will never get Android up to par with Apple in the music world. First Google must correct the internal latency inside their OS. Plus for what it cost, you might want to give it a shot. The app was just release so go grab it and get the party started. $19.99 US. Here is what they have to say.
