1 MAJ console
Bonjour à tous, nous avions acheté il y a quelques temps en 2006 je crois le pack console Hercules MK2 avec Virtual DJ 3. Depuis, nous n'avons fait aucune MAJ ni du logiciel ni de la console.
Aujourd'hui quelles sont les évolutions des 2 ?


merci

Salut,

les deux ont pas mal évolué. Notamment au niveau de la partie contrôleur.

Je suppose que c'est dans le but de réinvestir ?
Quel est votre (vous semblez être plusieurs) budget ?

Merci, non pas réinvestir mais faire d'éventuelles MAJ du Virtual, actuellement version 3, celle livré avec la console. Ou en est on avec Virtual ? Cela vaut il le coup de faire une MAJ ? Qu'est ce qu'il y a de plus ?
4
A mon sens ça va pas t'apporter grand chose de faire une MAJ, et puis VDJ est franchement pas donné...
J'ai eu aussi ce contrôleur, ça fonctionnait pas mal avec VDJ, si tu veux passer à un soft plus "complet" (par rapport à VDJ 3) et abordable, Traktor est un bon rapport Q/P.

Mais vu l'investissement et l'obsolescence de la hercules mk2, autant réinvestir directement dans un contrôleur plus actuel

Depuis la version 3, pas mal de choses. Ils y sont à la version 7.4 et la V8 en pré-release.

Tu peux t'inscrire sur le forum de VDJ en enregistrant ta version console pour voir si une mise à jour est disponible pour toi.

Après si tu adhères à VDJ, tu as une réduction du à ta licence de version LE.

Merci pour les précisions. A part des skins nouveau et des samples ou effets rien de nouveaux dans VDJ donc.
Est ce que la mk2 marche avec Traktor ?
