| I like Traktor. With Serato you have to get some add on programs to do things that Traktor already includes with their program. |

| Dream Beamz |
plus with Traktor, it comes with a sound card thats universal to other apps such as ableton and what not.
Serato uses an interface thats not asio compliant. Plus on Traktor you can actually see the horizontal wave forms |

whats the difference between traktor pro and traktor duo? |
|
|
| stan229 |
| duo is the cheaper, more entry level one.. 2 decks only and an audio4 instead of a8 |

yeah i just read a couple things on it, and for what im doin i think its good enough, i can always upgrade later
im gonna be using the djm400 and cdj400's so duo is probably fine |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I hear that Serato is pretty much the club standard these days with the equipment pre-installed in more DJ booths (although generally considered to be technically weaker in terms of SQ).
Also regarding Ableton, I hear they're actually collaborating with Serato for an upcoming product - not sure how it would work exactly but it should be interesting nonetheless. |

I'm going to say its generally the standard. I believe the issue is that people try to be elitists. They want the harder or more hardcore piece of software/hardware just so they can say they do it with that. This is a on going thing with people of that mentality. Serato does what most people need and does it well. I just really believe that people are now against it as its mainly the standard so its like "why be like everyone else?". |
