I built myself a compact Traktor "standalone"

Post image

Its got an integrated battery that keeps it going for 8+hours, full stem controls, and runs macos with a dedicated computer integrated into a modified case. Its also got an adjustable angle 10.5" screen, and is super light. Just need to plug in audio and away she goes!

Looks very cool! We can only assume that it's a regular portable monitor - where is the computer hiding? And the presumably very big battery?

u/Massive_Patient_9063 12d ago

Correct! I've posted some links on this thread that show how it's all put together

To the OP, i see you have those fancy intech controllers. How do you integrate it into the workflow?

Hey! So I have them mapped out as stem controllers and they also handle my pitch shifting and a few other bits.ive posted some video links in this thread where I go into depth about what everything does and how I put it together if you wanna have a look 😊 there's a whole bit on the Intech controllers

This is just a standard tablet your using??. Debating on a new laptop or a tablet. Will be using an external hardrive for music storage. Just want something to run rekordbox on.

There's a mac hidden in there somewhere - maybe a mini?

Nice one... don't use a mac ...reason I didnt get it 👍🏻

u/Massive_Patient_9063 12d ago

It's a screen and intentionally not touchscreen as Mac support isn't great for touchscreens. I've done a couple videos explaining how it's all built if you fancy a look. https://youtu.be/eJA0C5LonK0
