Midipipe Tutorial
I watched the video on Super Knobs and the read the new post on Instantly loading effects. Thanks for the great info but I can't figure out how to configure all the controls in MIDIPIPE. I am using the AKAI MPK49 with Traktor 3.3.
Boom- I am on it this week. Great suggestion!

External Mixer Mode (Traktor)
For all us old school vinyl junkies. How to get the most out of my 1200's along with my midi controllers in Traktor 3.3/ Traktor Scratch. There are certain bugs and limitations with this mode. (I believe you mentioned one bug previously, track tempo reverts when you cue/ jump to another cue).

Intro's and Outro's
This might be a basic question but what is the length of time you generally mix an outro and intro of a new song before fading over to the new song? What is the best practice, 64, 32, 16, 8?
Also different technics using the same song to overlay into the new song, i.e. keeping the highs or the mids or both from the previous song
I know this is very general but looking for some advice.

Techniques for drastic tempo changes and/or genre direction
I like to play a wide range of music and genres. There are times that I know a certain song would be perfect to follow up my current, but their tempos are not even close, or even half/double. How can I mix, rather than just cutting? Or what tricks can make my cuts more fluid?

Novation Nocturn & Traktor
many people on NI's traktor forums are dying for some help with integrating the Novation Nocturn into their sets. it's a fantastic controller and looks just perfect for Traktor by the layout and premise, but nobody seems to have gotten it working quite perfectly yet. would be great if you did a tutorial on this.

xone reviews
I think your site is missing some of the greatest and most profesional dj tech tools, the Allen&Heath xone series. I agree, they are not really cheap and easy to carry around... But hell the xone:92 combined with two 1Ds look like the perfect setup to me. Their unmatched quality and robustness allows to go really wild mixing without being afraid of breaking the equipment; their complete, clean and generic layout allows you to fully customize the setup to your needs and last but not least it's a very modular approach allowing you to upgrade or exchange parts instead of the whole thing at once. Recommended and badly missing as the higher end of dj tech tools!

Digital mixers w/ Traktor Pro ( Internal or External )
Traktor has the great feature of using external mixers or using Traktor's internal mixer... and The DJM 400, 700, 800 and the A&H XoneD mixers now allow for either analog or midi control mixing as well. I would like to hear a review on the differences of using either style. At the moment I use my DJM 800 in the old school analog style of mixing. What are the benefits of using the mixer as a controller? What is lost?

Build a midi controller
Build a midi controller (together with a company Vestax or Allen & Heath).
- No integrated soundcard
- Full control for 4 decks and effects
- Allen & Heath build quality
- Led and/or Led Display feedback on the mixer
- Preferably < 1000$Agreed the vci-100 and especially the Ean Golden edition is a really nice piece of hardware but it doesn't compare against a Xone 3D. The Xone 3D isn't affordable for most people though, and there is nothing on the market that's worth it under that price imo.
This idea sounds crazy but I would probably buy one in the future...

Talk more about the numark ns7.
Lately I've been looking at this online. I know it hasn't come out yet, but it would be nice to see some kind of breakdown or comparison. Even just some speculation from a person with experience with these kinds of products would be nice. I'm pretty new to DJing and controllerism, so I don't always have the best discretion as to whether or not a particular tool is good for my use. It would also be good to see some thoughts about whether or not it will just end up being vaporware like certain other products.

Ableton Live Tutorial
I love all your Tutorials about mixing and Traktor - but i'm curious how you do things in Ableton Live.
I would love to see a Tutorial about it - the best would be if it would range from Basic Mixing to Professional Stuff with all Effects etc...
Ultimately you could combine it with a small part about integrating Traktor into Live (i know there's already a post about that, but maybe you could do a quick glance at that).
