I wouldn't buy a...

Having issues with Sync as I posted in CDJ forum and it was brought up that it could be RB. I know I said I would leave it alone but just something for Pioneer to think about.

I wouldn't buy a Computer that didn't come with an operating system (Mac or PC) and when buying a Computer I damn sure wouldn't go with the computer that had a basic operating system. My example is Pioneer equipment and RB. All this nice equipment and a software program that is basic, no fun and lacking in features, basically it gets you by... I know it's free but so is many programs that come with a Computer that do so much compared with what RB can do / offers for the Pioneer equipment. I know there is a HOME version of Windows but it just got you to the Internet... blah!

I for one, if Pioneer had a legit competitor with the 2000 Nexus lineup  and had a better program like RB, (I'm not a fan boy yet) Get RB solid and a leader than things might change. 

Back to issues with RB and equipment. I'm not sure what the real issue is but I darn sure don't like being a beta tester for almost $8,000 in equipment alone. Heck, read the forums and people don't use this or that feature because it doesn't work right and they hope an update will finally resolve all the issues (one that is released soon)

Back to RB being free. Fine, where Is Rekordbox plus for $99.99? I spent this much another hundred or 2 for a RB that I don't have to unplug the ethernet cable to set loops that start at the end of a song or to adjust the beat grid because I can't do it while LINKED, I'm LINKED why can't I? I also want beat grids linked to my CDJ so when I move the jog wheel I see the beat grid move on the PC. I know other things might be a priority but as I said, please show me the BUY NOW for Rekordbox Pro, Plus, Gold or whatever! 

Justin time for some Hardstyle!

JUSTIN I AGREE WITH YOU THAT YOU ON SOME OF YOUR POINTS. AND WE ALL ARE FRUSTRATED. I'M SURE THEY ARE WORKING ON A FIX. UNFORTUNATELY THESE THINGS DON'T HAPPEN OVER NIGHT... ALTHOUGH WE AL WON'T LIKE INSTANT GRATIFICATION. THE PROGRAM WORKS DIFFERENT WITH PC'S, THEN MACS, YET STILL HAS ISSUE'S ON BOTH. WE JUST HAVE TO KEEP TRYING TO GIVE PRODUCTIVE INFO AND NOT BASH AS MUCH. AND I WOULD TEND TO DISAGREE WITH YOU ON THE "SYNC" FEATURE. I THINK 99% OF THE DJS ARE USING THE FEATURE. THEY ARE JUST TOO EMBARRASSED TO SAY IT... SO KEEP GIVING THEM AS MUCH INFO AS YOU CAN SO WE CAN GET IT FIXED.

Yes, I AGREE, I have to say after a total of 1 month playing around with Rekordbox and my new CDJ nexus, I am HORRIFIED to use this system LIVE. I just posted in a thread I started, (asking for answers), that after hours of beat gridding over 100 or so tracks Rekordbox completely FROZE UP on me when I tried to shut it down for the night. This didn't happen before I decided to grid my tracks:-(

DJ Pete: Why are you yelling all the time... ;-) lol.

I use Sync and if anyone wants to laugh at me or has any comment about how I'm not a real DJ... I don't care. Matter of fact, one of the main reasons (Top 2) I bought the Nexus was for the Sync. Yup, I could have saved money buying other CDJ's but I wanted Sync. 

 

No one cares... If anyone does care that I use Sync, I pitty the fool.
