I like the design of these deck controllers, but I wouldn't remove TT mode (as it's the main reason I bought the S4 MK3) and I would keep the 8 performance pads as they are on the S4 MK3 controller (RGB, fully translucent and bigger if they could fit there). The additions of separate loop in/out, key shift and pitch bend buttons are great. Bigger screen is also cool if implemented properly (they could take some of the user created mods and implement or improve on those). Haptic feedback could be completely removed because I can't see the actual use of it in any kind of way (and I tried to find it useful really).
That type of mixer just isn't my personal preference because I'm a hip-hop DJ and I would prefer battle style mixer, but and improvement in the crossfader area would be great (maybe Innofader instead of the stock crossfader).
Cool designs tho, really good to see someone designing mockups like these.

I like these mock ups, however screen above the jog wheel for sure and def larger.
I really enjoyed the screens on my D2s, not having to look at the laptop was a game changer, but if they were a little bigger and slightly tilted forward they would have been so much better.
When are we going to start seeing leaks of the real product(s) they are working on?
Please please let it be modular controllers!

Any updates if there's going to be Tidal integration after code has been reworked? eagerly waiting for that ... ;)

I'd say it be coming soon in next big update and after adding beatport with last major update I'd imagine the coding is in place already for more streaming services

They've already said no more streaming until the codebase has been significantly changed, so I'm not sure we'll see it in Q3, maybe end of Q4 2022/start of Q1 2023.
I am literally desperate for Tidal, but there were SOOO many bugs when Beatport/Beatsource integration was introduced, so I don't blame them for wanting to take time over the next one.

I really hope Tidal comes. It’s just the all round best. Has most requested tracks you would ever need and in high quality.

Thank you NI for sharing these insights with the community, please keep us informed! I hope the Flexible Beatgrid, TIDAL integration and USB export function are coming soon! I would be happy to see a standalone version of S4MK3 and a new version of Z2. ;) Fingers crossed

1. The survey - would like the see the data from this just to be transparent. Number 1 most requested to the least requested.
2. Subscription - More specifically, this means that we are committed to respect the status quo and in near future will offer new, additional options to engage with TRAKTOR at different price points and for different needs. (I like this answer because I prefer to but out right and pay. Own the product if I am paying money for it.
3. Codebase: So is this new code base the same universal code base that was introduced by Traktor DJ 2? Or has that project been abandon for something new for Traktor Pro 4 with a new code base. Does this mean no more update on the current code base that is Traktor Pro 3?
4. Hardware: waiting to see what this new hardware will look like and yes we know that it might not make everyone happy.
Also, I found this to be very interesting.... (but we want to share with you that you can expect news soon on FX and a drum machine module. All other requests, such as flexible beatgrids, browser improvements, or further streaming services have been heard as well and they are on our midterm roadmap too.) Why I found it interesting because izotope has a drum machine called breaktweaker 😀 could it be 🤔. A really sick drum machine plugin. So, does that mean we will see something major on Traktor Pro 4 before June (Midterm) and the rest of stuff from June to December time frame?

According to the official traktor update status thread in this forum:
"Please note: This is not the update delivering general native Apple M1 support, which is scheduled to come in Q3/2022."
Most likely a July launch for the new Traktor Pro and hardware.

Please update the Stem Creator tool
- Choosing export audio quality
- m1/monterey support
- improve limiter quality
Stems is the best thing that happened to traktor for producers... it never received the support it should from Native Instruments.

NI did you not promise more frequent updates?
Would be neat. Thank you :)

Only when they need us to be quiet for a few weeks.
Sadly it works, so they'll keep doing it.

I can‘t stand this 🤷🙈

Here are some request for the STEMS format (best format ever)
- Update Stem Creator Tool for m1
- Update Stem Creator Tool for Windows
- Ability to choose the audio output quality in the stem creator tool (ie Lossless 24bit) Currently this is only possible importing ALAC files
- Support for Lossless Stems in Traktor in Windows and Mac.
- There is a bug in the stem creator tool in windows 11 at least the it creates the .stem file but causes an error if an image is added as a cover.
- Improve the quality of the Limiter in Traktor. I currently use Traktor with Audio Hijack to run the audio through AOM invisible limiter (low latency) and works quite well and sounds great.
- Improve the quality of the compressors and limiters in the Stem creator tool
- Don't give up, this format is great.. especially for music producers who want to do more when playing live. There's nothing even close to .stem
Thank you

I’m kinda thinking this is the strategy as well. I love Traktor so not going anywhere but when they say “ you will hear of effects and drum machine soon” it does make you think, is it drip feeding. We were told spring for a new update so I hope it’s between now and end of June. I just wanna know how my S8 is going to work with new software before I buy something like Rane Twelve to go with it. Or will the new hardware have what I need. Who knows, I am getting a bit impatient, hope it doesn’t drag on and on.
