Ondanks dat ik nog vakantie aan het vieren ben toch 2 kleine nieuwtjes waaronder het nieuws van Native Instruments, deze heeft namelijk versie 3.4 van Traktor en versie 1.3 van Traktor Scratch vrij gegeven. In beide versies zijn een behoorlijk aantal bugs gefixt maar zijn er ook een aantal nieuwe dingen toegevoegd zoals het "hotpluggen" van audio en midi devices.
