Better performance might help this sell, but the second I saw the "Surface Music Kit," I got excited.
As a DJ, I need to carry around an expensive laptop to perform. The iPad does not have any impressive apps to DJ (at least not professionally), so I'd be VERY interested if they focused on the niche music market here. Surface 2 + Kinect/Leap + superb DJing app + Spotify-esque music supply = very happy musicians.
Unfortunately, I don't think anyone is going to spend the time to develop a quality DJing app.
- saturdaysaint 13y agoThere are plenty of quality DJing apps for PC - this seems like it would be more than adequate for Serrato/Traktor/etc.
- sleepybrett 13y agoIt depends on what type of DJ you are I guess. Looking at your 'ultimate equation' it sounds like you might be a wedding DJ so Traktor isn't really your bag.
- math0ne 13y agoI'm pretty sure all the best dj apps are available for windows pc...
- 33degrees 13y agoI have a friend who is a dj and has been struggling to get his music apps to work properly on his Surface; he ended up having to disable to a bunch of stuff to get it to work glitch free. So I would definitely wait to see how other people get on with the new models before jumping in. Also, Traktor DJ and a Kontrol S2 is definitely a pro level setup for iPad...
- fumar 13y agoYou do not need an app, if you get Surface Pro 2. I have been running Ableton Live 9 on it. It runs without any problems, I usually hook it up to my APC 40 and microKorg. Fruity Loops is now available in the app store for both devices. http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/fl-studio-groove/45739f6c-beaf-4215-bf87-b64b6f8ad871 http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/fl-studio-groove...
