    All i wanted to complain about is the fact that I have a pretty good Midi controller with a brilliant multi I/O soundcard that is not usable to control any other software than Traktor. Once NI was on the bright side of the force making cool stuff and encouraging people to do creative stuff with their products. Of course NI can do whatever they want but I don't need another company in my life acting like ****** PioneerDJ.


    And honestly, I don't get @MichaelK_NI 's answer. I know, displays, jogwheels and stuff. Just give us MIDI mode for the faders and buttons and I'm, good. :-)

    Lest we forget... MIDI mode was promised as a "to come" feature, but as @marinelli says "It's been [FIVE] years and the S4Mk3 still has no MIDI mode".

    Hey @Michael_NI , more global controls is really needed since MIDI mode is not going to happen. Looking forwards to seeing this implemented. Happy Holidays.

    Are there any news about a "reduced" midi mode or more global controls?

    I see it this way: I don't think the product policy of the last few years has been friendly towards the end user. What has happened? The products have become more expensive, at the same time more inflexible and equipped with fewer controller knobs and pots. In my opinion, the marketing efforts have been increased and the actual product quality downgraded. I myself use the KONTROL S4 Mk2. Why? I have a midi mode with which I can also map other DJ software. For example, Algoriddim DJay has a much simpler stem mode and a "real" beat sync for tempo changes. Traktor still has some catching up to do.
