“Does anyone have any info about compatibility between NuVJ and Traktor? ”

I’d also be keen to hear if this is possible?!

nuvj does not seem to take midi instructions from live 4.

Yes, there is a review about the Behringer BCD2000 on http://www.flammablelife.com

I can tell you that the Berhinger is useful if you use proper software, I personally do recommend DJ decks, cheap and reliable + it has native support for the BCD2000.

In relation to the Nuvj, I would love to test this console as I am both DJ and VJ,
currently I am using Resolume for VJ-ing
which can be controlled by an external USB controller, however this program rocks!

I hope this helps…

Cheers!

Does anyone have any info about compatibility between NuVJ and Traktor? It would be great if we could use them together.

I make all my music using video clips and then dj/vj the videos as tracks so there’s no matching visuals to sounds, the visuals ARE the sounds. That means I need a controller that treats video tracks just like audio, pitching, beat matching, scratching, etc. so far the hercules mk2 used with pc based virtual dj 3 (not 4) is best for this. I wish there was a review about the Berhinger BCD2000 with some info about virtual dj. as far as I know, virtual dj is the only software that treats video just like music tracks in traktor. any one know of a better controller?

from the video stanpoint,i know that the closest your going to come to a device that enables you to trigger video clips on the fly might be edirols tokeyo unit its around 500$ then you go up dramaticly in price to 4& 6000$.the edirol v-4 is only a 4 input mixer with on demand efx like croma key /luma key exct-but to trigger clips over top of rolling video with all those other features for 300$ is somthing ive got to see.

Sometimes when I read blog comments on music equiptment like *pachooey chomp’s* comment, I wonder how we have even advanced enough as a peoples to create a device like the idj2. Does anyone have an idea when the idj2 will be released into stores?

The NuVJ is way more expensive than a BCD2000 and it looks to be missing a Pitch Slider since it is geared towards video mixing, but the fact that the jog wheels have a good distance from any other control is tempting. Support for Virtual DJ 4.0 is also unknown. I’m trying to decide which controller to get and this announcment makes it harder. Behringer BCD2000 vs Hercules DJ Conole MP3 vs Hercules DJ Console MK2 vs NuVJ. Ugh! :-)

Informations are scarce about the iDJ2…anybody knows if it works as a MIDI controller, or is a “self-contained” unit (only works with iPod and USB devices, not as a controller or with external analog audio inputs)?
