that's the worst sales pitch i've read in a long time

true

i swear by my serato

unless i turn up to a club with poor dj booth so i always take cds just incase

can mix better on 1210s than cdjs though. still learning the jist of cdjs.

i use 2 different setups, ones just timecode on vdj with 2 serato vinyls andan american audio versaport which can bepicked up for like100 alltogether andworks really lushly
or my main setup cause i dont have any space in my house to have my decks out is set up thesame way youdrun timecode but instead of having decks i just use this little hercules controller so the laptop and controller are just acting like a pair of cdjs and i do my actual mixer on my mixer
at first i didnt like it,but over time it grew on me andnow i find it a hell of a lot more fun than mixing on vinyl cause it gives me more time to get more technical with it

got my macbook and Numark stealth controller... the only problem is i dont know how have my headphones and my main output as separate channels as it all runs through my macbook which only has one jack socket


maybe i need this

Got a lappy, vestax vci100, and the m-audio fast track pro, which works great.

you need the dj i/o - although you should of just bought the omni which is the same as the stealth but with a soundcard built in.

it was a bday present so i didnt have to pay for it anyways... its not that bad without headphones atm coz its not like im playing out or anything, i just have to do all my beatmatching over the speakers for time being, still helps me get my eye in. I'll probably get the i/o when i next get paid.

Never understood the whole format protectionism thing. I've seen people kill it on Ableton/Serato/Traktor and have seen drunk DJs tank on 1200's. I get the whole "checking your e-mail" thing but honestly, the worst offenders are live performers, not DJs. I swear I spent an hour and some change looking at the top of Mount Kimbie's heads a few weeks back: they should shave in some funny designs so we could have something to look at.

i may well drop it later as well

tbh never used cdj1000s...i might just fade the other tune out and press play

Play it mate!! and play it at 10:24..........cos i'll be there then!!lol. I think for pure and complete effect you should just drop it from the top aswell....no mixing required.

good luck pistons!
