And on this my friend, I do believe we can agree.

I use Ableton now for both my sequenced mixes and my live (with the apc40) sets and it's amazing for both.

This is a recent sequenced mix I did in ableton.

Soundcloud

EDIT: In my sequenced sets I do a LOT of custom edits of things and really try to make most of the mixes something special. If all you're doing is you're average everyday track to track mix in a Daw of some sort, sadface.

I did a sequenced mix for my radio show....it took me an entire afternoon/evening. yeah it was all the custom edits and things. I was also chopping second fragments of tunes within the mix and incorporating them into other songs, etc etc. it was definitely fun

Haha, yeah. It's a lot more time consuming than banging out a recorded set. The mix I linked took me about 36 hours total or so.

36hrs god damn!

I wonder how many of these exclusive blog mixes that I hear are actually sequenced like that? hmm...probably more than I'd expect.

Probably most. Though Dubstep/Dnb DJs tend to be much more stuck in their ways than the DJs of most other genres I've encountered.

See, thats all Ive REALLY been tryin to get out, I wanna know the difference damnit! Ill dig on a Bassnectar set cause its admittedly ableton, n yo dubsac, if you get a digimix done, send me a link dude, I like oyur productions, love to hear a mix. But around ehre, particularly within the HHC kids, I see to many Djs get booked on thier ableton sets n then get up thier on the mixer n fuckin TRAINWRECK. Just tell me when its ableton, n Ill fuckin skank out with the rest. But use it too its fullness, n dont front bout what your not. Like I said, I like too know. Dont like to discriminate. Not down with the hicks n haters.

basica a, i dont tihnk ima get a mix done. hahaha, all this has just confused me a little bit. ill just stick to makin the single tracks for now, maybe in a little bit ill try mixing it.

oh oh oh, NOW i see what you're sayin. my bad. i totally agree.

hey dubsac, just throwin this out there, throw me 45:00 - hour's worth of tracks and i'll mix 'em for you, honestly would be pretty fun

I've been sequencing a mix in FL for well over a year and its still not how I want it.
don't diss DAW mixers...its a great way to do a perfect mix...it just takes ages sometimes

Why would you ever sya this n then rock a Fuck CDJs avatar? I bet Ill get shit down just as smooth as you with my CDjs and laptop on the Aux then you have in a year. This is exactly what Im dissin, n you have no right too tell me not too when you have such an ignorant avatar yet are talking about DAW mixing. Talent in the decks is a perfect way to do a perfect mix, n dont get me wrong, I still stand firm behind what I was saying earlier about producers n DAW mixing/software matchers/ableton for expansion of live set possibilities, but, cmon dude, you cant say Fuck CDJs like those of us who use em are lower then you n then run a DAW for a year n never get a mix done. Thats just rude.

I'm rude? go fuck your mother.

I use a DAW to do some mixes because I can't quadruple drop on CDJS or vinyl.
oh, and I don't have decks.

go listen to http://www.hyperblazing.co.uk/mixes/10_ ... _Mix_I.mp3 and come back with your version which you did on 2x 1210s, yeah?

Your thick skulled man, did you miss entirely how I DONT USE VINYL?! And I can quad drop... I have two module players coming from my PC to my AUX channel and then two CDJs on the Numark, plus the drum sequencer/synth module program on the laptop, n the effect processor on it.

I am doing exactly what you did on a that damn DAW live. And the only reason you "cant" is because you "dont try hard enough"...

So WTFs with your attitude dude, fuck CDJs, fuck 1210s, but rock on 1hr mixes that took you a year to make? How bout you lissten to my mixtape in the sig n tell me how many years it would take you too get that done?

Im out on this topic, DubSace, Narcis, Mad EP, anyoneelse up thier /\ whos not totally fuckin thick, keep up the sick work... Wierd vibes on this subject.

this. dude just get a trail for virtual dj, its not great but its free and still pretty fun, and you get to mix. if you like it go for a pair of decks, ive only been doin it a little while but im already lookin into getting a pair of cdjs or somet.

hell yeah dude, if your on VDJ, lemme throw it out, you WANT a korg nanokontrol. I imagne VDJ supports midi right, traktor does... but dude, those play button maps + fader maps on the pitches change it ALL dude, seriously, best 60 bucks you can spend.

N if its CDJs your in the market for, Ive seen cool results from 4 channel mixers with effects + players, you can go pretty cheap with it if you really search, denon makes some responsive cheapo players, n I think behringer has a 4 channel effect mixer, n numarks got some cool cheap shit in the CD desk and rackmount shit thats as cheap as they come n lasts forever, pretty accurate too... you gotta wire those with a laptop for effects though on master... N if you send CDJ master signals to a track in your DAWs mixer, eheh... its fuckin on... FL for drum patterns and effects with the cdjs down below and module apps on the AUX? 400 bucks total. N thats buyin the cheap FL too.

haha, if you've spent over a year sequencing a 1 hour dj mix, it better be the best goddamn mix ever.

i would like to hear said mix

Its not... he posted a link to his sets, I mean, they arent bad, but I know ALOOOT of people doing that live n on the fly.

But holy shit, has anyone other then me heard JFBs megamixes? Hes the king of pushing the technology, him n beardyman are fuckin innovators in it when they perform together... Serato setup + live loop mapping to it through a kaoss pad and the interface, plus ableton n a bunch of little module apps runnin on the side? Sweet new-school turntablism Jesus... that shit fuckin awesome...

Ale Fillman int bad either, now is he? 4 player rigs + daws for loops n sampling n accapellas n shit...

Its all about merging it all into one area, we shouldnt be bitchin back n forth with me n the Turntable/CD crew on one side n you ableton folks on the other... we should be discussing how too integrate the two worlds, digi n organic, n the sickness thats possible thier... Thats what me n so many others try n achieve these days, n it REALLY IS the future of the art. Not each one solo. But both together n Live.

or how about 4 together live? all doing quadruple drops would be madness

narcissus wrote:or how about 4 together live? all doing quadruple drops would be madness

Dude deal, four of us, four players + a drummachine + sampler + vst rack and nano controllers each... N a fifth dude to drop accapellas n scratch, right?

Move to pitt, right now, n well hit up audiolines n start buyin gear tommorow, hopefully be practicin by friday.
