Pioneer XDJ-1000 HID Mode with Traktor

[@oliverhill7821]

Spot on video, after months of deliberation/worrying, you've just decided my next purchase! Many thanks!

[@flypurplestars]

S mode in Traktor refers to "Snap Mode." Great review by the way! It has definitely encouraged to buy a pair! Thanks!

[@DaveSHarris]

SNAP. that's the word I was looking for. Thanks

[@flypurplestars]

No problem! You're welcome! How do you like the integration of the XDJ-1000 with Traktor so far?

[@DaveSHarris]

I'm finding it ok although to be honest I'm trying out all sorts and having a play with Rekordbox too. There's a lot to love about Traktor but I'm also having fun with some Rekordbox'd tunes on a memory stick and going back to manual mixing rather than letting traktor do the work. It's fun!

[@flypurplestars]

Awesome! I totally understand. There's truly something special about Rekordbox with Pioneer gear. You'll eventually figure out which workflow is best!

[@MrTonig12]

Love this love this! I was hugely disappointed whent the XDJ1000 was released and no talks of HID support for Traktor but maybe later for Serato. I use Traktor and sometimes hook a buddy CDJ2000Nexus and they work beautifully in HID mode. If something should happen to my 1200's, I will definately get a pair of XDJ1000s. Great video! Hopefully a full version will be out supporting HID mode for the XDJs!

[@DaveSHarris]

Serato is also supported and will be my next video. I'm sure Traktor will come out of beta soon

[@GFunkTube]

Thanks for this. Decided to take the plunge. Been using an S4 with traktor in bars last few years, but want to get used to CDJs to be more flexible and expand venues I can play in. Think adding one to my setup will get me used to the Pioneers nicely. Later will probably add another and get used to using rekordbox also. Just to give me more flexibiltiy playing out, and for fun.

Thank you very much for the video. I have a question please. I have all my music library in Traktor in .FLAC format. If I want to connect Traktor to a CDJ, do I have to use a CDJ that supports the .FLAC format? I understand not, since the sound would come from the computer directly to the mixer and the CDJ would control only one traktor deck. Is that possible? Thank you very much in advance.

[@DaveSHarris]

Hard to say as I don’t have the setup anymore but pretty sure your theory is correct.

[@TheTriguru]

Hi Dave. Thanks for this video. Im a struggling in the connection and settings on traktor. my set up- Im using cdj 2000nxs, xdj 1000mk2, d2 kontrol, f1 kontrol, djm 800 Can you please help?

[@shaunp221]

Massive thanks for this vid, really thinking about purchasing a pair of these XDJ's now with a DJM 850 for use with Traktor.. Looks a formidable setup, have you played live with it all yet? Also what Powered USB Hubs would you recommend I look at? Again big thanks for the video :)

[@jurajkrajcik4410]

Hello Dave. Thanks for this video. I am just considering what equipment will i buy to renew it a bit from decks-only play to meet the expetations of these times. XDJ 1000 looks like the right thing as i am traktor user. I have a question about formats xdj 1000 can play. Wondering if xdj 1000 can play flac file format trough traktor. Probably it isnt any issue as NI (traktor) supports it but just for to be shure. (as they "flac´s" are not supported while playing from usb).

[@charles7659]

Great video, mine will be here on Friday. So are you telling me your using this WITHOUT a traktor box, just the latest traktor software? I'm currently using serato with 1210's, but if I could use traktor without buying another box (like serato) is move across!

[@DaveSHarris]

Traktor does not require a box specifically unless you are using time coded vinyl or CDs. Then you would need a compatible sound card such as the audio 4.6,8 or 10 In this configuration there is no timecode. Everything is HID, just connect usb and from the laptop into a mixer. You'll need an external sound card for your mixer or something like the djm850 that has one built in. I am in the process of trialing Serato DJ but overall it's very similar. I may do a comparison video if I get time.

[@flexx-903]

Dave Harris brilliant thanks for the reply mate! so is this is the same with serato, i no longer need the serato box as im not using timecode, just HID? :D

[@DaveSHarris]

Regarding Serato I've been told by serato support that I just need seraro dj as there is no timecode and my mixer is now supported.

[@Official_sl4]

Dave, Thanks for the video above. i have a question, how would i set up 2 xdj 1000 mk2 / K2 allen heath controller and a xone 92 mixer? Im a struggling the get the xdjs to connect to even play sounds from traktor. Can you help?

[@mathijsdeboer4711]

You can map it manually with this tsi-file doc-04-0s-docs.googleusercontent.com/docs/securesc/ehctka42ruuvov69msha9uuogib3jbla/aed0u93buelntp2ea127nh0gg58o1el1/1577721600000/04107613744431825739/11069455921189362573/1zrM7qcjEdauansMvs49bc1fMauLCm2iR?e=download&authuser=0&nonce=429ic3t3nll2i&user=11069455921189362573&hash=7vcn9udqvka2l6m6rdcg58gja4a7ib3g

[@fingers6743]

Can this be done with the XDJ 1000 MK2?

[@mathijsdeboer4711]

No, I bought one and it's not possible. But you can map it manually with this tsi-file doc-04-0s-docs.googleusercontent.com/docs/securesc/ehctka42ruuvov69msha9uuogib3jbla/aed0u93buelntp2ea127nh0gg58o1el1/1577721600000/04107613744431825739/11069455921189362573/1zrM7qcjEdauansMvs49bc1fMauLCm2iR?e=download&authuser=0&nonce=429ic3t3nll2i&user=11069455921189362573&hash=7vcn9udqvka2l6m6rdcg58gja4a7ib3g

[@kikisstavrou1301]

Great video!!Question:How do i set hot cues to anything other than 2, 3 and 4 from Traktor to the XDJ-1000?See I have set cue points on my whole collection In Traktor and the 1st hot cue it s very important for me .Also the bult in soundcard is so good as cdj-2000 ??Thanks a lot

[@DaveSHarris]

Haven't tried for a while but if I get chance I'll check

[@trendingshortshorts]

Might seem like a dumb question but will the mixer work still? It just won show up in traktor? Or do you need a mixer with a sound card?

[@DaveSHarris]

You can use any mixer but if that mixer does not have a built in sound card you'll need to get a sound card to sit inbetween the laptop and the mixer.

[@houzic]

ThanX!

[@DanielsCZ]

is it possible to control two decks with one XDJ ?

[@DanielsCZ]

+Daniel Mariaš I got Audio2DJ soundcard, it probably will be needed

[@pasqualepepe9678]

How well the they pair with the S8.

[@DaveSHarris]

I don't have an s8 so I don't know sorry. Perhaps send me one and I can try it for you :-)

[@djrushdxb6845]

can i conacet xdj 1000 with tractor pro 2.6 with out no tractor box ?

[@DaveSHarris]

You need the very latest version of traktor which is 2.7.5 This is still in beta at the time of writing. No traktor box is needed, but you may need to route your audio through a sound card in to a mixer depending on which mixer you have. If you need a sound card I've had good results from the traktor audio 2 and 4.

[@kikisstavrou1301]

so do you have any idea?

[@DaveSHarris]

About what?

[@Ali-sr2ec]

why dıd you say that dont use at your gıgs?

[@ashleydsouza1]

[@falopio67]
