So I noticed Traktor Pro hasn't been updated since April... they used to update it about once a month but have done nothing for the past 7 months. Think they are moving on to version 2.0? It certainly still has bugs that need to be worked out.
I can't help but feel it has something to do with the massive discounts they are throwing out now. I don't really know why they would not update, not like they are going to drop it, but still seems a little too coincidental. Anyone going to winter NAMM?

Well, they just released the S4... which has a bunch of new features that ARE coming to Traktor Pro. So no doubt this is the delay. They were getting the S4 out the door, and are back porting the new features to Traktor.
