2 Reloop Contour Controllers with Mixer

Yes I Want One! The Reloop Contour Controller!

Yeah I know, you need to have things to dream about. But I know for sure that I’ve plenty of things to dream about, so just get me one of these, NOW!

I now got an awesome setup already, but I want to move those APC’s into a CUE, FX and SAMPLE dedicated setup, to have awesome options to play with a functions of Traktor Pro 2 (T2!), without shifting through modes etc.

Recorded a mix with webcam and screen recording software!

After moving to a different setup (focussing on midi and digital audio) I also connected cams to record my movements. Not just to show how good my dancing skills are ;) , but mostly (and even more fun!) to show the things I do on the controllers, the mixers and my PC. Therefore I’m also showing the software so you can also see what I’m looking at on my screen!

I’ve uploaded a video testing this and it already looks great, although not perfect yet. But feel free to decide this for yourself!

HouseQ – Qlub House (On The Move)

Today I’ve spent some time on making changes to my DJ setup. Main thing was to do some mapping on my DDM 4000 which will replace my old 5000FX which of course isn’t digital and/or midi-compatible.

This mixer combined with my APC40 + APC20 will unleash the controllerism beast in me and make sure I’ll be able to have the best experience on mixing, cueing, fx’ing and sampling! It might take a little while before the best mapping will be finished, but for now it’s usable and therefore I’ve created a new (‘test’) mix!

This mix contains 30 minutes of full house and club music of today’s charts! Check out the track, or download it in full lenght, from the Soundcloud link below!

APC20 + APC40 = APC80 controllerism at HouseQ Studio!

Getting ready for APC80 style controllerism!

APC20 + APC40 = APC80 controllerism at HouseQ Studio!

Getting started to unleash the mega power of the AKAI APC20 + AKAI APC40 together in an ultimate combi, by many named the unofficial APC80! Started to create an ultimate mapping for Traktor Pro which combines the forces of ‘unlimited’ buttons and faders.

Also I want to incorporate the Traktor S4 funtionality into Traktor Pro, but not 100% sure yet whether I do want to create this for Traktor Pro , or just already use Traktor S4 for this.

Check out the teaser vid below.

Ordered my Midi Fighter today!

0

Today I received an email from the guys (I’m sure there only guys in there, no girls on the vid’s sofar ;) ) from DJ Techtools that there own customized controller called the ‘Midi Fighter’  is available for order from today!

Although I’m currently finding my way through all my controller stuff in my ‘dj room’ at the moment, I cannot resist having the great custom DIY midi beast myself! Therefore I decided to order this piece of creativity and designed my own custom fighter as shown above!

I ‘ll have a wonderfull black casing and a shiny see through plate, this way no dust will gather itself around somewhere within my controller, but thanks to the transparant plate you still see the beauty of what’s inside! The finishing touch is by using the 16 arcade style white buttons which make this a real black & white beast. Hopefully those led’s are gorgeous blue which will make the beast even more gracious!

Check out the controller yourself at their shop and customize your own favorite color! I hope to have mine somewhere end of this month (I’m ordering from Holland, they are shipped from LA, USA). More pics will follow then it’s in!
