Upgrading to Traktor Pro
This month, Native Instruments is running a deal by which I could upgrade Traktor from version 3 to the new Traktor Pro for half price. This made my upgrade less than $45.
Tonight, I took it for a little test spin and noticed immediately how drastically different many of the controls are. For one, my usual looping controls are all out of whack. There are multiple effects processors, which is nifty, but the new controls will take some getting used to. The tempo clock measures to two decimal places now, so I’ll have rely more heavily on sync than I did in recent mixes.
The upgrade was fairly painless. I was happy with Traktor 3, but if I ever finally upgrade OS X to Snow Leopard (which I bought a couple of months ago and haven’t installed yet), I need Pro. I guess we’ll see how the next mix goes.
