Yes so can “I” but that is the problem here with your responses. It’s not about you or “I” it’s about all DJ’s in general. And many prefer the Full Band RGB Waveforms for reasons already discussed. So having the superior option would be nice for those who prefer it …
Well at least you actually do get the point so kudos’ sir.
Yes, that is the basics of DJ’ing. But it’s no longer 19 O’ Cobweb. It’s 2021 the digital new age so move with the times or don’t it’s your choice but don’t talk down/mock others because they wish to embrace the new age.
I think the issue here is most digital DJ’s and DVS users spent years on Serato or Traktor (in my case) and want a waveform they are accustomed to (RGB or Monochromatic). It will also make it easier for Rekordbox users making the switch. Rekordbox has the 3 band waveform now, but had the RGB and monochrome waveforms for years prior.
PS I am one of those DJs that started over 20 years ago
Well I don’t / can’t speak for all DJs - and neither can you. Saying things like “many prefer” is just meaningless unless you can quantify it. How many DJs prefer “full band” waveforms? Has there been a survey?
Feel free to make an alternative thread/request for a blank SC6000 screen off function, so you can carry on with the oldskool by ear skills way to see if you can quantify more …
I am ok with the color scheme. Actually any color scheme is good as long as we are presented with information about what color does what and they are actually contrasting enough to see the fast moving changes.
But what I actually would suggest (but it’s only a suggestion, not necessity):
Let’s ask for more detailed waveforms maybe?
Color - let it be optional for everyone to select high, mid, low from 16 or 32 colors. But the shape should have more details to better see the transients.
Again though that should be an option/user preference - spikey waveforms from a UI/UX perspective are heavily dated and not in-line with modern standards that are considered good design, so it’s very easy to see why the decision was made to go with a smoother version (which imo is better, but that’s just my opinion).
Better for the looks, not better to see the transients.
You want precision? Make the waveform more detailed. It should look like 3 waveforms on top of each other. Every frequency (low, mid, high) in different color.
Yes, exactly that is now, but as I said, better to have more detailed one.
I don’t want to say it is a necessity but, it’s a suggestion and would be very welcome if happened.
