another upgrade to djm 2000?

with this awesome 3.18 update, we now have a beat slicer. however, i do see a few things that are not quiet right about it.

  1. in the totally awesome demo by Monsta singing "messiah", they only use the beat slicer in recording live vocals, then slicing it up. wouldn't it make more sense to be able to capture audio from the mic as well?
  2. if the beat slicer is a recording feature, why is it triggered with the remix button instead of the sampler?
  3. and if we are going to go with the sampler button, then can we get the missing fx from the djm 900 nexus?

.. which brings us to the next item.. if the djm 2000 is the 'flagship' then why does it have less fx than its predecessor the djm 900 nexus?

please create an update so that the 'live sampler' button triggers the "beat slicer" screen and the 'remix' button triggers a screen showing the effects missing form the djm 900. here are the beat effects missing in the djm 2000 but exist in its predecessor djm 900 nexus: spiral, flanger, robot, melodic. here are the instant fx missing in the djm 2000 but exist in its predecessor djm 900 nexus.:dub / echo,gate,comp. and in case you are wondering, why in the world would anyone need so many effects, the answer is simple: the djm 2000 is the flagship. these are effects that are not just whatever effects, these are effects that we use all the time. especially the echo, spiral, and flanger. sure the beat effects has an echo effects, but it cannot be used in conjunction with the flanger.. echo + flanger = really awesome fx. and i think that's what the idea was behind the design of the djm 2000.

The reason the beat-slicer only works with an audio input (other than the mic) is for the rekordbox beatgrid to ensure that your slices are timed right.

The DJM2000 doesn't have the same effects because it was released BEFORE the DJM900.
