The only thing I don't understand (other than the price, which is apparantly for the whole SL-3 KIT, not just the interface)... is that they STILL haven't matched the features of the NI Audio 8 DJ...

Only 6 in/6 out, no headphone preamp, no MIDI, no driver support outside of Serato (at release).

Like wuh? The only thing it has over the audio 8 is a 3rd phono-preamp.

With their announced Ableton partnership, I find this confusing. 3 stereo in's/out's and no drivers doesn't seem forward thinking.

Their competitors are all releasing new things. the tracktor pro series upped the game quite a bit (for functionality if not stability), and the Duo release moves down into the SSL price range. Meanwhile there's not been all that much on the SSL front.

They announced the partnership with ableton with no real details at the same time as pro came out, possibly to try to encourage people to stick with them in the meantime.

sure it's a bit nicer soundcard, but I wouldn't be rushing out to make the upgrade

Exactly.. Die hard fanboys will go out and buy this.

Personally I would love to see what their sales figures will be like in 6 months time. Just out of curiosity

this will be the hardware used when serato and ableton combine so if you have the SL1 you're shit outta luck...
