It's also worth noting that if I backspin very slowly, it seems to take a little longer for the interference to begin. I'm unsure of the architecture of this new jogwheel mode but it seems that somehow the signals from any deck being backspun are being fed to the motor of any deck in TT mode, regardless of the mode of the deck the user is manipulating is in. There is something wrong specifically with the turntable functionality. Jog or TT deck will affect a TT deck (No matter A, B, C, or D) ****Tried posting this yesterday, didn't seem to go through****** Otherwise, it just won't work.Hmm imma test this out see if it's the same here, I was more focused on the hardware.

Note: Mac Mojave users have to create a new account/user with admin permissions and download the S4 MK3 Firmware Update from the NI website using Safari to be able to update the controller firmware. That said, the sound is amazing and very clear, the unit feels solid, although it's plastic, and, so far, I love playing with it. In fact, if there were dust sleeves, the faders would probably last even longer. Although the faders are inverted and carbon protect, that doesn't mean that dust sleeves are obsolete. This made me anxious, so I improvised some external ones made of felt and mask tape. One huge overlook from NI, in my opinion, is the lack of dust sleeves inside the faders. I'll keep experimenting with TSI's and wait for another update.
A slight nudge of the jog wheel and the problem solves itself.

Playing using either TT or Jog mode, there are still few "bugs" that cause the software to sometimes not interpret the MIDI signal correctly and the Tempo glitches a bit making beatmatching not so accurate. However, the operation is not as smooth as you would expect from such an expensive controller. The S4 MK3 allows me to have all the fun of vinyl without the hassle of having to carry heavy records in a trolley. The motorized jog wheels in TT mode are a lot of fun to DJ with, no doubt. Got a second unit from Thomann and this unit is now working fine (thank you, Thomann). The first unit I got, clearly had a left jog wheel issue that caused the music on Deck A (and C) to drag and skip on its own. I confess I ordered this controller because of the motorized jog wheels feature. I'm just bummed I didn't grab it for €759 before it rose in price to €899! Reproducible bug and I'm sure it will be solved in time. The only issue I have had so far is sometimes the mini-screen for the waveform and track information just stays saying Traktor until I turn the unit off and back on (while Traktor is running). The lighting is well balanced and the controls and commands are more intuitive as you continue to use it. However, I haven't gotten used to it enough to be able to truly judge it.įinally - the unit is really well built, it just has a premium feel. The torque is just like a turntable, no joke, it is. The Haptic feedback technology is really, really interesting. I recommend Z ISO, it has that sweeping magic resonance that we all know and love! On first launch, the filters will be the super smooth kind (Classic), go to the Mixer settings in Traktor and experiment with the other types.

DVS, a massive selection of FX - assignable to 3 tracks for each deck and also a mixer FX section where you have 4 FX switches plus an additional filter switch! There are a nice few filter models which can be changed in Traktor, which I recommend. They give you everything, for one initial price. However, Serato seem to be the EA of DJing software - "we have the features you want, but it will cost you extra on top of the original purchase!" You have to pay extra for DVS, FX & filter models in a lot of cases so do your research!Ĭontrast this to Native Instruments and Traktor.
The Numark NVII does a good job of trying to be CDJs, the built in screens are just amazing and mean you can keep laser focused on mixing instead of taking your head up to look at a screen. If you've used CDJs or other standalone decks and gotten comfortable with them, only then will you understand the feeling of limitations in controllers. I was stuck between the Numark NVII and this.
