PT-1210 MK1 Amiga DJing software

[Grega]

thats pretty awesome. having spent alot of time behind driving stuff like ableton, traktor, fruityloops etc - thats a bloody good achievement to be smashing out sounds on a 1200 using mods and the like. awesome stuff.

Thanks! Will be interesting to hear feedback from those using Traktor or CDJs once the app is out, I'm pretty confident people will find the transition almost transparent and will feel like fish in a pond when using PT-1210.

I was professional dj for 10 years. I'm really looking forward to this.

Great software! Real time!
I hope to play with this toy without being a Dj

Why DJs "blow your mind" "freak out" as if they were playing electrical guitar solo of Funkadelic maggot brain?

looks fantastic, will it be free or commercial?

[Amiga1992]

This will be free of course.

I'm also looking forward to this, the demos so far have been amazing, mad props to Akira and my boy h0ffman! <3

Hey guys, any new info on PT1210?
DataStorm14 is over, any material from the presentation of yours? Or was there any after all?
I've seen the short footage from DS14 at YT, it sounded really great (the music, not the recorded video but shown very little in terms of the most awaited (and probably will be the most influantial) amiga app in the last decade - or better two.
the gfx looked great on the monitor duh..

any plans to add some hardware controller support?
the best would be a mapable system, where you can map any action of the "deck" to a supported controller
- but if you would just select some specific ones and hard-wired the actions for those, that would be nice as well.
midi interfaces are still dirt cheap for classic amiga as ever, and plenty of new(ish) midi controller still got midi DINs so plenty of amiga compatible midi stuff out there to get (older ones are cheap too
or it could be simple a joystick/joypad support, thats 8 direction + 2 buttons = 10 actions, or more, if one button act like a modifier/shift.
or a ps1 controller (with adapter, tracker hero supports it fe.) it could provide hard surface for pretty much all of the functions of a deck - all in your hand

not to mention and how much better is to smash the buttons till crack on a ps1 pad than putting your beloved MiggyDeck or the original C= keyboard to the risk of get crashed by you while jamming real hard on hardcore amiga jungle modz

if such a system could be realized by you, even a very basic one, then please, consider it to implement one!
thanks!
im already wet like a schoolgirl on a takethat renuion gig, and by now i really wanna cum by the PT1210, so please, any new info would help to bear the waitD

Ah, one more: MED support possible? if it is, you could even make a separate "OM1210", an OctaMED Deck, then a real MED vs MOD set could be realized

The release date is still at Revision 2014.
For hardly regular news, you can follow its page on Facebook, but as I said, we really haven't posted much yet: https://www.facebook.com/PT1210

If you haven't seen much of the app you should google a bit. Here's an article in one of he blogs that covered it:
http://createdigitalmusic.com/2013/1...-amaze-friends
There you can see it demoed, full screen, albeit briefly and a slightly older version.


to be brief and down to earth, talking here about any ideas we might or might not have is just speculation and we don't want to drive anybody to think we might implement anything. So there, an official reply

This will be me Used CDJs for years in clubs, never really liked them. Much prefer Traktor and some SLs controlling.

Looking forward to trying this. Just hope it doesn't take away some of the unique mystique behind those doing this sort of thing already and it inspires creative ways of mixing with the Amiga and incorporating it into live setups.

This will undoubtedly happen to an extent, but we'll see then, if more people use it, who are really the bad asses
I'm interested in it being used for livesets of people who maybe have Amiga tracks now but play them in Ableton or something because they have no real live performance option to play them with a real Amiga.
But for example, gwEm made STj, and nobody else plays it like he does, really. He's still the master.

To be honest, for me, relying on such a gimmick to push my performance ahead of others, is ridiculous, so it's best when stuff is out in the wild and the method isn't important anymore, rather the skills, the "crate" digging, etc.

Little update because we're a month off from release and this thing is looking PIPING HOT.
I really hope people will appreciate the tool as much as I think it rocks.

Keep your eyes and ears peeled for Revision 4 weeks from now, and meanwhile here's a little teaser pic of the work in progress splash screen:

We are near completion now, few loose ends to tie up but otherwise rock solid and feature complete for the Revision release.

Just want to say a big thank you to everyone on the forum. Especially everyone on the coders forum who've helped answer my questions over the course of development. Without your help, this would not have been possible.

Release is later TODAY!!!
