Why DJ Craze chooses Rane & Serato over Pioneer DJ & Traktor! Full Interview @ NAMM 2020

[@Slayd5000]

Folks been asking NI for flexible beat grids for ages. They ignored EVERYONE. Now they've lost their spokesman behind it (among other things).

[@djkit]

I think a lot of people are waiting for N.I to pull something out of the bag!

[@mortlow6688]

ok, but don't forget the money you save if you buy a z2 . I mean 1600€ for a 2 Channel DVS Mixer and 100% problems with Serato ....Maybe the price would be ok with build in Computer but at the moment i see no big innovation compare to a ELITE, 72, 62, s9 or z2...

[@gfgnickname_not_chosen2598]

mort low you could just get a Numark scratch for 450 or even a used amx for less than 200 and you could have a great working Serato Setup. With the Scratch you wouldn’t even have to get the dvs expansion or anything it works straight out the box

[@djimma5080]

@@mortlow6688 I own z2 and elite, the only thing traktor has over serato (these are very specific for me) serato has no master tempo I find this annoying for a certain things like making routines or experimenting, trakor has the loop recorder I use this alot even though I don't think many others do, the beat slicer effect I use this alot too in conjunction with the loop recorder, the fx in general is better on traktor. Serato has its own cool stuff too, the beat slicer on that is dope in its own right, flip is dope, I find the serato vinyl to be better than traktor vinyl, the crate system is better, the grids are better too. I use both together I run my traktor set up into the aux on my elite so I have a nice hybrid all options available set up. Z2 is desperately in need of an update though. It is a really good mixer though I have alot of love for it and with traktors mappings capabilities its actually the most flexible and customisable mixer on the market, I have mapped that mixer to work as 4 decks, I have multiple mapped buttons etc etc, the only thing that let's it down how are it's que buttons and a few ease of life options available on newer mixers

[@chemtrail2269]

Slayd5000 yeah they certainly are fucking up

[@seandwyer448]

Coz they paid him more!!??

[@rogue66v]

[@Dirt33breaks]

Serato is the APPLE of djing, damn expensive, but does the same shit! ive had both! and prefer Traktor as its way more customizable bit like android lol

[@DJFLIPOUT]

Craze is best dj and best guy!

[@vernonjohnson997]

He can't touch dj jazzy jeff..real talk 💯

[@djimma5080]

He switched for the same reason everyone else has been Traktor are fucking slacking with a new 2 channel mixer

[@djkit]

The Z2 is so old now, Traktor have definitely fallen behind on that front!

[@turntablistbpm]

1:18 that classic routine tho'

[@DannyTasko]

I mean they got him a Tesla... shiiiiiit, I would make the switch too 😂

[@vishnuvaid7465]

someone please tell me the names of the tracks Craze used for that routine!! yes - i'm aware it's from his winning routine '98. Have just been trying to do my research and know what's before my time.

[@djimma5080]

The drum break is off hew haw breaks and other record is art of noise, look for DJ Craze live in Toronto that vid has the best version he did and its clean

[@djkit]

Each to their own I guess, but Craze has tried a lot of them!

[@luke-so9hs]

[@djimma5080]

@@djkit the only reason he changed was because everyone else was he works with is on serato

[@chobson4432]

Nah its about the love of the art not the equipment bruh. Pioneer makes top gear. I am a Technic lover myself. I like Traktor and Serato, doesnt matter to me.

Oh yeah, I have the Denon VL12's and absolutely love them. Got Phase too. It's sick combo.

[@TheAnunnaki-NYC]

He had to use those V12s cause Rane and Denon are both owned my InMusic.

Product promotion, not interview.

[@DJSHOWOFF79]

What is the purpose of scratching I never get it

[@IanDeVos]

What is the purpose of music in general? What is the purpose of playing the drums? Keyboards? It's just another instrument, an instrument that takes a lot of practice to learn. It allows a DJ to take a song or sample and create something new just by using their hands.

S9 Rules.I'm sure Rane is paying as well.

[@djxsquizit]

Not any more buddy. Rane 70 and 72 took over. Pioneer needs to re-think their pads settings on the S9 then maybe it will sale like crazy again

[@fedscame]

pioneer djm s9 n serato all day

[@djkit]

Have you ever tried the Rane mixers?

[@fedscame]

djkit.com yeah the 62 ttm 57 and 72 a couple times

[@ClevelandTerry]

Viagra 300mg that 70 is a different beast and I have the S9.

[@fedscame]

Cleveland Terry in what way other than independent pad modes that i run with a mapping and the silent cue buttons they are virtually the same

[@ClevelandTerry]

Viagra 300mg you can’t honestly say that the build quality of the s9 compares with the 62? That’s my biggest gripe with my S9.

[@andrebryant516]

Most djs are social misfits who developed a skill in their bedroom and that skill made them useful... useful idiots mind you in most cases but useful nonetheless ...which gives them a big ego...with that being said ...stay humble on your way to your dreams guys.

[@chobson4432]

No, bad hot take.

[@konmoe121]

I know two kinds at least, the ones you mention who cut through their playlist without any feeling for the audience, just them thinking they are kings - and the ones who do it for sharing their favorite tracks with the crowd.
