- What characteristics have motivated your choice?
The new version 1.8 which includes loops, cues, and native support for the wheel on the HC4500 DN. (Seems that the 1.8.1 will be in full).
- For what purpose?
Mix 95%
- What is your config (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Hard ,...)?
An old laptop with an XP2400 + PB M, 480Mo of RAM and 32MB of shared video (that is happiness! )
- Which instruments and systems (console, preamp, DTD ...) you use it and how connections? ...
PDX 2300 & DJM707 and as soon as available HC4500 DN & DN X050 (subject to successful 1.8.1).
GETTING STARTED
- The installation is done it without problems?
Theoretically yes, actually the 1.6 I reported a problem where mass or 1.8 does not move with nothing changed (weird). Impossible to have perfect circles but apparently it does not interfere with the app.
- Have you experienced any incompatibilities?
No, just reduce the level of graphical refresh and latency not to gun down my pc.
- The general configuration is easy?
Yes, I think that's the main argument of this app.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
- What is the configuration of your computer? (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Disk / sound card ..)
- The software works he correctly on this configuration?
This is where it gets stuck, an old laptop with an XP2400 + PB M, 480Mo of RAM. With the 1.6 it was going, the new 1.8 is much heavier and so my pc is a little head at times. (Stalls).
Disabling the TC I get to save 20/25% cpu occupancy, with a MIDI controller so it could still go some time.
- What performance? (If quantifiable)
Good, just 2-3 stalls / hour. It would increase latency but sensation level it becomes inconsistent, so I made a choice ...
- This software + hardware is stable?
I have not yet bcp mixed with this version but I did not crash.
OVERALL OPINION
- How long have you use it?
I kept my 1.6, one week, the 1.8 I've had it about 1 month.
- What is so special that you like most and least?
The sound quality (compared to a dedicated box with other soft).
The visual: the colors of waveforms troubles my sight, and that information will be essential in the white circle in the marker.
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
Yes bcp, bcp, I had just tested or I would avoid the listing ...
- How would you rate the quality / price?
Prohibitive: 600euros why not exaggerate, you pay the brand. A product I would like any more € 350/400.
- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Well, for now it's mixed. You need a big machine to run it but they started to realize additional functions and south. In addition to the development of ITCH will certainly benefit Scratch Live as well. So yes, provided ...
