Is it ok to use Engine DJ, here’s the truth!

You can try to prove this hypothesis by adding an external 1GbE adapter. I’ve done this for all of my players and things don’t improve much at all.

Even SC6000Ms using fast internal SSDs with all non-essential services turned off have serious UI jank issues. The network speed is part of the problem, but the majority (imho) is the speed in which the SoCs operate and what is being asked of them.

Isn’t the speed of USB 3.0 ports partly the limiting factor here?

Internal SATA is also limited to 500 MB/s anyway.

USB 3 speed is between 5Gbps and 20Gbps.

Internal SATA is converted to USB 3 on the main board.

I had no idea that the internal SATA adapter is actually driven by USB. Thank you for sharing that.

It’s ok Ben, plenty of people in the comments asking why it’s not for the brand formerly known as Pioneer to rebalance again.

Correct statement. I think the fact that the decks are limited to a small set of DJ software is the only disadvantage, i.e. I can’t use Traktor :((. Otherwise, only (very) good!!

You can use traktor. Computer mode sends midi data over usb, just map the decks in tractor and go. Nothing stopping you there.

Great.I will try…

Hello again. I tried but it doesn’t work. Have you tried it or is it just a general idea that SC6000 can be mapped as midi in Traktor? If so, how is it done because I’m not that advanced in IT, I’m just a good DJ :slight_smile:

I did map SC5000, and SC6000 works exactly the same. You just need to map it in controller manager.
