Pictocube « Perfect »
Published on 05/20/11 at 00:45What motivated my choice is that I used the first version that I appreciated for its ergonomics and stability.
I use a Vestax Typhoon solo or Ecler SMAC Pro 20 during configuration heavier on a MacBook Pro.
I mix for fun and sometimes for friends, former DJ, I wanted to get back but without re-invest in two Technics and a mixer of egg.
There's everything you need and it works, the trick is to get the right version ... And what was missing is now in version 2.
GETTING STARTED
Instalation simple as long as we are connected to the Internet, otherwise it's possible but more difficult.
The general setup is fairly simple, the control panel is very comprehensive. I had a little trouble understanding the principle of Change in the section reserved for the setting of midi controllers, but nothing insurmountable. No incompatibilities encountered so far except that I can not configure my LED controller. The manual is clear and sufficient.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Unibody MacBook Pro is a second generation.
The software is perfectly working on it, even without a dedicated sound card.
No crash.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 2 years at least.
Previously I had been experimenting with Virtual DJ, and more recently MixVibes Dekadance. All bidders or less able or less pleasing ergonomics.
What I like most is the Grid system.
What I like least two regards: Unable sampler with the sampler! We can distribute sample but not create them in real time.
The value for money and good, especially if you work with NI products and that often puts its config updated.
