DDJ 1000 with Time-code vinyl

Hey guys,

Apologies if this has been answered before but i am struggling to pin point the answer to my exact question.

I am looking at moving from Traktor to Rekordbox and purchasing the DDJ 1000 for a 4 deck set up and integrate it with my Technics.

So the question is this, can i run time code vinyl on channel 1 and 4 of the mixer on the controller and the jog wheels on channels 2 and 3 all running from the program?

another question will i need additional hardware like an audio interface? i have been reading about rekordbox plus?

again, apologies if you have answered this many times, there is another thread but it says the DVS will run through channels 3 and 4? Thats not really what i am after. just need a straight answer before i bag myself the controller!

Thanks,

Joe

Would be smarter to set it up like 1 and 2 as jog wheel stuff, and 3 and 4 as DVS.... for me, it's easier that way.

I just got my DDJ-1000 and notice that when scratching slowly, there's "wobble" or "warble" in whatever sample I scratch. This is not present with Rekordbox DVS and timecode. The same problem happens with the 800, which I also have, as a test unit.

I don't understand why it sounds so terrible. The DDJ-SX's jogwheels scratch perfectly with no audio artifacts.

I tested with RB5, RB6. Same issue. Makes me pissed that I dropped twelve hundo on something that has audio artifacts the older units don't.

Test and see for yourself. Try any "ahhh" sample, or any vocal like "ah yeah" or anything like that.

DVS works through any channel but certainly it's easier to configure with 3 and 4, and leave the 1 and 2 for the built-in jogs.
