I guess not to many was sold or caught to much attention. Because, you don't hear anything new as far hype on youtube or a lot talk about it in the forums. Like the DJS was a fly by night deck and it's five minutes of fame has came and gone. I guess somewhere in the future. Someone will put out a video of the DJS-1000 doing something that will gain attention again. Way after production and it will sort after, used on ebay for more than priced now.
Word, youtube is cluttered with crap for the DJS. Cats want me to do another Hip Hop vid because I'm only one doing Hip Hop with it. I'm planning a vid, might do a behind the scenes of my upcoming album, produced soley on the DJS, or something. Its a dope machine and ahead of its time. People are using it wrong, its got Hip Hop written all over it because its built for the DJ in mind.
But I like the obscurity of the DJS. It was the same with the BOSS SP-303. That too, was a sampler built for the DJ and everyone passed on it. Then Madlib produces a few tracks with it and becomes the most sought after sampler since the MPC3000. Yeah, keep it underground for now, when heads find out whats up, they'll be on it like flys on molasses.
On Pioneer forums, we are already requesting song mode or at least pattern chaining. My friend says the sales team are angry that development is too slow for the DJS, they know its potential but the higher-ups are the ones that fund the costs but its another case of short arms and deep pockets at Pioneer. Shame.
But get on the Suggestions forum at Pioneer and request song mode. The more the merrier.
