The Evolution of Traktor

article from the guys over at www.djtechtools.com


Traktor was first introduced over 10 years ago, and since then, it has become an institution when it comes to digital DJing. The impact the software has had on the DJ scene as well as shaping the trends and developments is both undeniable and impressive. Looking back at the development of Traktor sparks nostalgia and warm fuzzy feelings very much like old school Nintendo does for many of us. In today’s article I will take you through the evolution of Traktor from 2000 through today.
The video below is a great example of how far digital DJing has come but continue reading for a look back to its humble beginnings.

I remember it like it was yesterday. I was in a pretty committed relationship with PCDJ when I first met Traktor and the chemistry was spot on. The switch was an obvious choice for me and I haven’t looked back since. Today, the market has branched off into many different focuses and styles of digital DJing with very impressive software like Ableton and Serato. Here is a look at how the program and the UI has changed over the years.

Traktor DJ Studio 1

Traktor was first released in 2000. The initial versions were Traktor Studio and Traktor DJ, with Traktor Studio being more full-featured.

Traktor DJ Studio 2

In 2002, Traktor DJ Studio 2 was released, which offered several new features including scratch macros. It also expanded its looping, MIDI, and cue point functionality. In 2003, Traktor DJ Studio 2.5 was released. This new version expanded the time stretching functionality, added Open Sound Control(OSC) support, and gave the user limited ability to customize the look of the interface.

Traktor Final Scratch

In 2003, Native Instruments partnered with Stanton Magnetics to develop the software for their “Final Scratch” digital vinyl system. This partnership gave Stanton a Win/Mac version of the Final Scratch software and allowed Native Instruments to use the Final Scratch timecode engine in their own Traktor line.

Traktor 3

In 2005, Native Instruments added vinyl emulation capability to version 2.6 of Traktor DJ Studio. Version 2.6 included live input, streaming internet broadcasting, support for more file formats, and greatly expanded MIDI capability. Soon afterward, Traktor DJ Studio 3 added two more playback decks (for a total of four), built-in effects, Beatport online store integration, a four-channel mixer, a Universal Binary version, deck caching, and minor improvements to existing features.
On October 11, 2006, the partnership between Native Instruments and Stanton Magnetics ended, and Traktor DJ Studio 3 was renamed Traktor 3.

Traktor Pro

In 2008, an updated version of Traktor Pro, and a new version of the DJ studio, Traktor Scratch Pro were released. Traktor Scratch Pro had additional DVS functionality enabled, including the specifically designed Audio 8 DJ audio interface, and timecoded CD or vinyl control.

Traktor Pro S4

When Native Instruments released its newest DJ controller, the S4, it came bundled with an, in many ways redesigned software, adding sample decks among other things. The Traktor Pro S4 also became the natural inspiration for what came next.

Traktor Pro 2

On April 1^st 2011, Native Instruments will release its newest DJ software and if you haven’t already read our article with a solid 10 minute video walk through by Ean Golden, you should do that right now. In the meantime I’ll be right here, waiting for holographic DJing with Minority Report gestures.

When Do We Call Time on Time Code?

Really cool article from the guys over at www.djtechtools.com


Vinyl has gone from being the club standard to a niche in a few short years – many smaller venues aren’t even providing turntables for DJs unless persuaded to drag them out of the cellar. Still though, many DJs stay dedicated to their turntables and swear by the precision, controller and feel of the trusty 1200′s. With the advances in speed, accuracy and acceptance of controller based solutions, is time code control still relevant in today’s digital landscape? When will controller technology get good enough to possibly exceed the performance or DVS systems and if that does happen, will time-code disappear?

A LITTLE BIT OF EXPLANATION

Time code works by sending a tone which is received by the software. That topic was covered more extensively in this 2009 article.  Despite sounding like a simple, constant tone to our ears, there is positional information in every single oscillation of that tone – Serato control vinyl uses a 1kHz tone, and Native Instruments control vinyl 2kHz – and so the needle’s position on the record can be accurately plotted to within a thousandth of a second.
In reality there are a number of factors that affect the quality of time code solutions though, from worn/dirty records and needles to inconsistent turntables and unreliable audio connections. A purely digital solution, theoretically, would be able to sidestep these variables and get much closer to true capabilities of the numbers. So what’s here now, and what’s on the horizon?

• Check out this article on fixing common time-code problems

At 33 1/3 RPM, the standard speed a 12” vinyl spins, a full rotation takes 1.8 seconds. NI time code thus contains 3600 counts per rotation, or to look at it another way, the needle’s absolute position on the vinyl can be accurately measured to a 10^th of a degree. To achieve the same level of accuracy on smaller sized platters, fewer counts are needed; a 12” platter has to rotate around 3mm on its outside edge to advance a single degree, whereas on the smaller 4” platter of a NI Kontrol S4, for instance, the outside edge needs to rotate only 0.9mm. The Kontrol S4 features 1000 counts per rotation, which more or less equates to the same accuracy as a hand touching vinyl time code at 4” from the centre.

AN ALTERNATIVE?

Stanton’s SCS1d is a proof of concept if we ever saw one; the 1d features a 10” platter with a slipmat and vinyl record. Based on the STR8-150 motor design, the 1d reads the rotational value of the record directly at 4000 counts per resolution, and as such is even more accurate than a time code record setup without any of the performance affecting variables that are inherent in DVS design. It’s so accurate and so individual, in fact, that it’s only recently that software has caught up to its capabilities.
So as we can see, the technology is already here. Theoretically, controllers can have an even quicker response than time code as well as all the accuracy and more – without audio to send, latency can be reduced as MIDI and HID latency is almost indistinct (many modern drivers achieve lower than 1ms latency, without counting USB errors, and Native Instruments have designed their own interface, NHL, which is similarly fast) and it’s also quicker to process than an audio signal.

THE BIG QUESTION

The most important question is WHY a 12”, spinning platter is important, or as the case may be for manufacturers, why it isn’t. Serious scratch DJs will generally prefer actually using vinyl to scratch with, but DVS gives the closest approximation of using real vinyl. Take all that advanced, freestyle-scratching-that-real-vinyl’s-better-for-anyway out of the equation though, and is it really important to have a platter that size? Manufacturers certainly don’t seem to think so. Pioneer’s pro level CDJs have ruled the roost as the professional non-vinyl standard for over a decade with a non motorised 8”, 3240 count (in the current gen) platter, and most MIDI controller platters and jog wheels are smaller still.
So is time code merely an interim solution that made use of existing technology to enable digital control? Crucially, is the design of digital DJ equipment even interested in matching the model of a 12” spinning platter? I think maybe not – if turntablism is the only category of DJing that utilises the turntable as an instrument in its own right, manufacturers may not be interested in reinventing the wheel of steel when they can invent something new with their own designs.

THE BOTTOM LINE…

At the end of the day, demand tends to drive the market. Are you hoping to one day have a super low latency, 100% accurate, 12” spinning platter on your desk? Or is the scratching just a throwback in your quest for cue point stuttering, effect bending world domination? Let us know!

Article from djtechtools about this new dj computer game. I tried it and it's actually pretty cool, that is if others get involved and play. Its not that serious. There's no actual djing, you just go around in a circle playing a single full track. People vote whether your track is cool or not. If your track is garbage you get booted, kinda like real life.

School is in Session

Less than one week away from probably the biggest EDM event New York has ever seen, Electric Zoo. I'm not a fan of progressive and trance so Sunday School it is. Each day has a great lineup of talent, but day 1 just isn't fair to anybody that misses out. All that talent in one tent will only result in one thing, MADNESS. If you havent got your tickets yet, go now http://www.madeevent.com/ElectricZoo/

Welcome all

In celebration of nothing, I've decided to take it upon myself to build a blog for everyone to enjoy. For some, 4am is the peak of their day so this blog is dedicated to you. Posting comments will remain disabled because its human nature to fight and quite frankly I don't feel like dealing with it. I will try to keep it as fresh and new as possible. The content will be chosen at random dealing with music, technology and everything in between. House music is such a broad category that many don't truly understand. For my enjoyment, we will stay within techno, tech-house, and deep house. If u don't agree with my choices then so be it. I will make changes pending on the popularity of the blog. Who knows, maybe I might allow you animals to post things and communicate with each other and myself. So with all that said, save this page in your favorites, share on facebook and twitter and let the fun begin.
