DM2


The DM2 arrived much earlier than expected. It was supposed to arrive on Thursday. I received the notification card from the post office that i have an international parcel yesterday. and was extremely thrilled because i knew it was my DM2. DM2 is actually a much simpler version of a turntable. It connects directly to your computer through USB. What matters the most is the program that ure gonna use to mix then music.The program that they provided me together with the DM2 is absolutely crap man. Cant even load in your own songs and mix. although i must say that the interface looks cool, but funationality wise, it's bullshit. So i went online to search for good virtual dj-ing programs (most famous e.g. VirtualDJ). However its not compatible with DM2. The one that most people talked about was Traktor DJ studio. I found a good set of instructions as to how to set the DM2 to be in sync with traktor. BUT...... the latest traktor i got was v3.0 and the instruction was for 2.0. I tried it anyway, it didnt work. the controller settings of the DM2 wasnt compatible with the traktor v3.0... The usual steps of troubleshooting begins.. i went to search forums.. and even register and posted, asking for help. Hopefully someone will reply. Oh, another thing.. because the DM2 wants to try and act smart.. they make their files into a format that could only be played by their program... so i had to convert all the audio input and output into midi, so that i can play it with traktor. as least midi is compatible with more audio players..Sounds like im complaining alot. But there is actually no problems with the 'turntable' (DM2). Quality was good, almost on par of what i expected. and the basic functions are there. All i need to do now is to sync the DM2 with the Traktor program. Have been doing this the whole day. Havent done any work yet.. better do some now.
