First impressions with scratching on Pioneer’s New DDJ-T1. The Track i used is Deadmau5 – FML. As you might notice i am not (yet) the most talented scratcher but with the DDJ-T1 scratches are very easy to perform.

PIoneer DDJ-T1: www.proaudiostar.com DJ Ayres: djayres.com Public Assembly: publicassemblynyc.com We gave DJ Ayres a the new Pioneer DDJ-T1 4-Deck Traktor Controller for a test drive. He is an experienced Traktor Scratch Pro DJ, and normally uses turntables with a Pioneer Mixer, so he was interested in checking out Pioneer’s new all in one solution. Instead of coming up with a crazy scratch routine we had him develop a condensed set with the Pioneer DDJ-T1. Most DJs are not doing full sets filled with scratching and crazy effects, instead its about developing a mix. DJ Ayres has been one of the top Djs in the city and is used to playing big parties for large crowds, and his known for his eclectic taste in music which he displays here. The Pioneer DDJT1 features four decks for control. The extra decks give you the room to add additional tracks to develop the textures of your mix. DJ Ayres uses the extra decks on the DDJ-T1 to add extra drum grooves and effects to his mix. The great thing about the DDJ-T1 is that it gives you the functionality of a basic CDJ/DJM set-up ready to go out of the box that works with Traktor which is becoming the standard DJ software. It really is plug and play and your ready to go. While nothing will ever get DJ Ayres to trade in his vinyl, he said it would be great for smaller parties, going on the road, and is the best option when bringing the full turntable and vinyl setup is not an option.

Pioneer DDJ-T1 Traktor DJ Controller www.proaudiostar.com Here’s our exclusive look at the Pioneer DDJ-T1 from inside NAMM. Pioneer has already released a feature video on it’s Serato counterpart the DDJ-S1, and now here’s your chance to get up close and personal with the four channel Traktor design. It looks as though it really does emulate the feel of a Pioneer CDJ, with similar button style and layout, while at the same time manifesting specific functions of Traktor into it’s a layout with the Effects and Fliter knobs. The layout of the mixer looks extremely intuitive and I’d expect no less from Pioneer. Cueing and assigning effects to the channels is clearly indicated by the light up buttons and the “master” and “sync” buttons look particularly useful when keeping track of your sync function in Traktor. Overall not that far off from playing on a pair of Pioneer CDJ-2000′s and a DJM-800. You’ll miss your built in effects if you’re used to having them on the mixer but if you’re a serious Traktor user already or looking to dive in deeper this could get you there in a more compact and portable unit.
