There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The Traktor S4 Mk3 simply does what I want it to do and does it very well. All the inputs and outputs you need in a 4 channel mixer. All the features you want in a club style controller and then some. The only thing I would change (which is possible with software/firmware updates from NI) is how FLUX mode automatically engages with reverse mode.
Not sure some of the negative reviews. I understand there may have been issues at the launch and with older operating systems. Mine worked without issues and setup was a breeze. New firmware seems to have resolved the issues. If you're not on Windows 10, suck it up, it's user error.
Vinyl will always have a place in the DJ booth, but digital can offer a lot now in a smaller space. 10/10 would buy again and again.
There's really no pros for the S4 MK3 that I want to mention here (don't get me wrong, there are many...but other reviews have covered this). However, I do want to add my specific list of issues as I feel this is most important for a potential buyer to consider; I also want Native Instruments to hear what needs fixing! Come on guys, I've had this thing for three months and still no update? People have been complaining about these bugs for half a year!
- if a filter is completely closed and the EQs are also closed, the audio will clip at about a 5 second interval
- occasionally crossover occurs between some of the knobs/sliders; I've noted two or three times now that adjusting a channel fader will sometimes cause that channel's filter cutoff to instantly adjust from 0 to -20/30% before jumping back to 0
- lastly -- and I don't know if this is a really stupid feature or a bug -- but if I have a loop set and leave it by pressing a hot cue, the loop will not deactivate...I don't mean that the audio will continue looping (it will jump to the hot cue as expected) but the loop remaining active prevents the move knob from working until I explicitly depress the loop activate/deactivate knob
I don't think I will sell the S4 because (a) it's very compact and the other system I'd consider replacing it with (some all-in-one Pioneer) would be comparatively quite large and (b) I'm a casual DJ and can tolerate the buggy software for the time being. However, if NI doesn't update the software soon and address all the issues I have, I might get fed up and sell it anyway and begin look for an alternative.
*update:* I got fed up and sold this unit and got a DDJ-1000 which I'm very happy with
