If you ever owned a pioneer mixer you would have thought that would have been one of the main features and one that would be imporved on this cotroller vs others that is. I see we able to select it under effects but no effects are applied.. So I think this is an issue that can be fixed through software.

+1 sample recording!!!

mic effects
sample recording would great asset
+1000%

+1 for this

Even if its just applying the Echo to your voice or something...Seems when the MIC is selcted, you cant even select Effects button 1 or 2.

If i could just enable that button,i can set the FX with the controller and turn on (example) Button 2 to apply the Echo on the MIC (channel 3)

+1 if possible

+1 MIC effects
likewise there is assign FX for 1-4 deck, master.. and could be another for mic individually

+1000

Mic effects... Auto tune, alien voice, pitch and stuff... Nice idea!

1000+
nice idea.

are they planning on doing this or nah ?

Wow, I just went to try and add effects to a voice sample via the ddj sx mic input and was shocked to find out I couldn't do so. I tok it for granted that this would be a standard feature. surely It wasn't that hard to implement. Would this feature be able to be added by a simple firmware update or is it not possible because of hardware limitations.
I'm curious, did they add effects to the DDj SZ Mic Channel?

Guys don't take away functionality. Please include this feature as it helps being original by creating our own samples(effects applied to sound from mic), fantastic for applying effects to live performances and in many instances used to get the crowd going

+1

btw... is the DDJ-SZ capable of mic sampling?

What hardware choices I have if I want this feature? Is there any alternative to the flagship Mixers. I prefer something I don't need an additional time-code system...

Thanks!

Sampling is same as with most but as far as FX with Mic that's a big roger. Kinda cool using the pitch adjust and having girls sound like dudes or the other way around LOL

sure, sorry I meant weather it can record the mic and use the FX sample player on this record.

+ 1 x 1000000. This should be a native feature of every single dj mixer for serato. Now with flip, you should be able to go to the next step which is record a vocal part and sample on the fly

Guys, I'm not 100% but think the SX (and some others) have their mics running through the hardware mixer and not through the SDJ software. This is the manufacturers of the hardware.

Remember these have standalone mixers inside and if I remember the mic runs through these on many devices. I think some mics run though the software but not all.

Correct. If I am not mistaken though there are some that have the Mic run through the software that still don't record though.

In the end the best option always seems to use external third party recording device/software.

it's sad not to get a reply after such a long time i originally posted this. concern.

Serato is there any chance you can make it so we can have an effect on the mic and the mic can record? The people have been crying out for years and there's been no response.

On the DDJ-SZ, you can apply the Sound Color FX (Echo, Jet, Pitch, and Filter) to the mic channel. However, this is a fixed part of the board ran on the SZ itself, and not through Serato.

In the "Old School' sense, Traktor appealed to me right off the bat. What I mean by this is in the traditional stand alone days before digital dj, professional set up consisted of a good mixer that had the proper inputs and outputs (Rane MP 24). This type of mixer has accommodations for a sampler (some served duel purpose grap sample/fire off one shot), effect units for mic and music,and a tape recorder recording your whole mix.

All of this is achieved in Traktor. In the traditional sense all the so call "Professional DJ Software" should have all these features. No one wants to buy a sub mixer and digital effects units to make this happen. This is frustrating and backward.

While I'm on this subject I just also want to mention, Serato should be working closer with hardware manufacture. For instance three iteration of the NS7 and the mic when running through Serato has a audible delay when listened live.This is understandable because It's running through the software, but why is that same signal not being run parallel through the hardware simultaneously with the ability not to hear the portion running through the software. This way your recording the mic but your not hearing that minuscule annoying delayed sound. Just to add, this delayed sound is not enough to be heard as a delay or echo its very small in milliseconds along the line of a chorus delay.

+1 for recording samples.

Wowww. 2017 and still no mic effects? Please work on this Serato. I searched and searched the web only to find this forum where people want the same thing as me, (mic effects)...

But this forum was created 5 years ago and still nothing?

Pretty please give us microphone effects we will greatly appreciate it! It's time Serato!

XOXO

Mic FX would be great but the vast majority (if not all) mic inputs don't run through Serato but through the mixer.

Serato's audio is sent from the software down to each channel of your mixer and is mixed in hardware like two turntables would be.

How it could be done is to send the analogue mic from the mixer and into Serato and back to the mic again but would guess it could invoke a little processing delay.

It's not the easiest and to be honest seems a lot of trouble sending upstream data to be processed only to come back. Maybe choosing a mixer with onboard FX for the mic is the way forward.

Putting FX on the sample decks is much easier as they already live internally inside the software.

Ah okay. So getting a mixer with mic effects is next on my list. And yeah I know about FX on the sample decks but that doesn't help my mic echo inquiry lol

I think it would be easier for now.

Maybe we will see it at some point but the issue is with the hardware I think pushing the manufacturers to cooperate with adding mic FX to hardware and then getting Serato to write it into software as a feature seems a long way away.

Maybe an external FX unit like a Kaoss Pad would help. It's not ideal but would add the FX needed.

Denon added an echo to the MCX8000 but wish it was a reverb and controllable. Unfortunately I can't change the parameters, only the depth. Shame.
They took the time out to add an effect but I won't use it!

I heard the dj-808 has some Mic features (just a few LOL)

I don't know what it is bit I'm really tempted into one. I had a play at the GC in Brooklyn and was tempted into taking one back. Hmmm...

Fx can already ve added to sampler. Just send the sampler output to a chanel and assign the effects to that channnel

2018
Still NO MIC SAMPLING
Just bought NMTP3 ,wanted to try BeatBox to add effects or looping just like a loop station(just the simple one) but dissapointed that we still don't have anything for that.
SAD

+1 Surely its not hard to implement
