3.0 out of 5 stars Ditch the stock software and get Traktor., 2 May 2005
By Shinde Kudasai "Kitsune Youkai" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: MixMan DM2 (CD-ROM)
I bought my DM2 for the soul purpose of scratching. I thought it would be great to scratch any sound. You wouldn't have to go buy custom records because you could make your own samples and scratch those. I learned you can't do this with the packaged software because it uses its own file format and converting to TRK is annoying and sample length is limited. I found something alot better, its called Traktor and you CAN set up the DM2 to work with it.

Look online and find an application called DM2Midi and download the profiles so you can make the DM2 function as a Midi control device. Traktor can play and manipulate full length wav and mp3 files without any need to convert. This is a better setup than the MixMan software but its still not going to function like a real turntable. If you want that go for Final Scratch or Ms. Pinky. Its steep but it will be the most authentic experience.

DM2 with Traktor is a useful combo if you can get it set up (there are tutorials on sites and in forums) but there are limitations because of how the DM2 is made.

The DM2's "scratch rings" don't work the same way as actual vinyl and they probably never will. Real vinyl is always in motion and it's also pressure sensitive (you can slow it just by gliding your finger over it or you can stop it completely) the DM2 lacks that kind of control and with current Traktor profiles you have to hold down a button to scratch. You also can't utilize the crossfader when you're using one hand to hold a "scratch button" and the other to move the "scratch wheel."

I've tried using profiles for Traktor that don't need a button so you scratch with the wheel itself but this is still difficult. The rubber scratch wheel's can't sense pressure so you can't just put your finger on the wheel and stop/slow the "record." The DM2 doesn't know your finger is there until you edge the wheel back or forth and once you stop moving it, it goes back to playing even if your finger is still there.

Perhaps if the surface of the wheels had some kind of heat/pressure sensitve strip like the volume adjuster on an Ipod it would work a little better. The people who make DM2 need to consider its possible application with OTHER software, not just its own.

4.0 out of 5 stars to import your mp3 to dm2, 7 April 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: MixMan DM2 (CD-ROM)
to mix mp3 with the dm2 you must get software that converts mp3 to trk which is wat the dm2 and all mixman products use. mixman.com has a program they offer for download, but it costs.the said software is not provided with the dm2.

1.0 out of 5 stars No good if one has Windows Vista, 6 Jan 2009
By Cathy R. Myers - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: MixMan DM2 (CD-ROM)
If you have Windows Vista do not buy this as the company who makes them does not know computers are sold with Windows Vista now and do not offer any drivers for Vista. I guess they make money on the next one that does use Windows Vista. Stay Away if you have windows vista
