![]() RB cant handle different music types as well it thought Freaky Friday by Chris Brown was 133 when its 100bpmĢ - when you use the software it cant switch between relative and absolute mode properly so when you want to change the pitch of a deck after you have used Sync you have to do this weird thing where you have to try and move the pitch slider unti it zeros out and then you can move the pitch to the correct amount which is ridiculousģ - without warning the pitch range will change from + 6 to +10 to +50 which screws you up when moving the pitchĤ - when importing music into your collection you have to physically drag it into RB unlike Traktor you add to your "music" folder and hit Import collection and it adds the new tracks in. Here are all the reasons why not to switchġ - the bpm calculation on Traktor is much better and more stable than RB. If anyone has any advice/help to switch me back to TP and get the SX2 fully working let me know So much so that I thought I should post this as a seperate thread. While RB might be nice to look at its Sh!t compared to TP in so many ways I didnt realise until I started to list them for another user. I did this mainly because I wanted to use a DDJ SX2 and couldnt get it to work with TP properly but I wish I hadnt. Peeps I recently switched to RB from TP and regret it big time. The answere I get on here "just hit sync" is not really viable given what I have outlined above, Time to up your game pioneer, giving the emperor new clothes every month is not going to cut it. I have pre ordered the new traktor s4 mk3 with the included traktor 3 and I believe its going to expose alot of rekordbox short comings. I wouldn’t even have had to of listened to a track before, but I could load it up, hit beat marker and it would play along side another track 100% without the need for gridding, nudging or metronome. Make the full track wave allot bigger, this is the important one!Īs a result of this I have become more of a stop start dj, Using Traktor I would mix everything and anything using just an X1/soundcard and the house mixer. Why do the vertical or horizontal wave forms take up so many screens? you only need to show half the wave form at most, 5 increments, there is absolutely no need for. This is due to the awful resolution of the pitch faders and rekordbox having 2 decimal places, why not just move in. Rather than use sync, I prefer to match the bpm with the pitch slider and avoid locking the pitch and as a by product feel like your actually Djing more naturally.īut here the struggle is real, on the RR RZ and ddj1000 the pitch sliders are horrible, sometimes you are able to match the bpm quickly other times it can take 10 seconds or more. This all feels very unnatural and out of character for a dj. Lets be clear you can not just hit sync and the tracks are magically merged together, all of the above must be followed through to get the desired results.Īfter a Successful sync the pitch slider sometimes locks itself and becomes unresponsive, this is just the way rekordbox works and the slider must be shifted to the bpm indicated in red on the laptop to unlock it again. The amount of time this is taking up is absurd given the amount of music that comes and goes on a weekly basis tracks run out of sync because the initial gridding has been done by a human to lock every track down 100% the metronome is required for absolute perfect gridding.Ĥ. for most tracks rekordbox will have the grid position incorrectģ. Ok lets put music bought from beatport etc to one side, Rekordbox loves this stuff and its a pleasure to mix.īut, I am a multi genre dj (5-7hours per night) and I am growing tired of rekordbox because:ġ. ![]() Rekordbox Sync Grid Pitch Metronome Decimal point Headache (Iposted this on the pioneer forums when i had realised rekordbox was a sham, i didnt get a single reply) To over come this you hit sync and thats when a whole new kind of kaos begins resulting in an unatural way of DJ'ing. If you dont prepare your music properly (grid) youll quickly find that music becomes unmixable, tracks drift and there is no sweet spot when aligning the beats using the jogs. But in a nutshell Rekordbox is not ready for mixing in a live enviroment outside of house and techno. ![]() I could write a small essay, and i already have ill copy below. This is because youve not put enough time into rekordbox but on the whole i agree with you. Well i did 10 years on traktor and have just put in a couple of years on rekordbox, now im back to traktor.īart, you said a few things that are incorrect.
