for £3500 i would rather buy

2x 1210 mk5s
1x djm800
1x serato sl3
1x mac laptop (ok it would only be mac book not mac book pro)

see how well u could spend £3500!!!

it would be waste to buy 2 ipads to mix on anyway coz u can only use 1 at a time for everything else apart from i dj app or whatever its called!!
Er dollars are different to pounds. :lol:

I saw this vid a little while ago too, surprised it hadn't showed up here sooner regarding her questionable mention of dubstep and what not. Your comment about the guy in the background made me laugh.. I don't remember the bit about 124.4bpm but again many :lol: & :u:

more than a 2-3 bpm change and most people will notice it.

even small ones at the wrong times will be noticed.

its that 0.4 thats the killer. You know it shouldnt be there. Really its not there. Its almost like a drummer swinging a drum stick but missing the drum.

lol @ some of the comments.

1mattLOL THIS IS HORRIBLE!!!
You are not DJ'in.
I would love to see you fail at beatmatching on a proper set of vinyls, or even CDJ's.
There is way too much cringe in this video.
I'd still fuck you though, probably quite angrily.

Apple never intended to sell iPads as DJing devices. So that's not entirely fair. I use DJ Headphones as well :mrgreen:

flippo wrote:so many cringe worthy moments in that video. It's like its satire for people who actually have some idea about audio.

"... you've got a cross fader, so you can switch between this iPad, that iPad... and then put them in the middle and hear both beats together, which is something that I've been doing a lot lately"

What a visionary! I'm surprised DJ's didn't come up with that blatantly rudimentary concept decades ago.


LOL at how shes got the audio going into the interface. A stereo RCA to 1/4 jack line-level output from the mixer into a mono-microphone pre-amp. All while there are perfectly good stereo pair line level inputs on the back of the unit.

"I'm running logic" while there camera zooms in on a laptop that clearly is running Ableton.

Also,
Rana Sobhany woke up at 5:30am to pre-order her iPad on March 12th, and got in line to pick it up at 2am on April 3rd.

She's been playing music in some form or another since she was 6 and if she could only pick one item to take with her to a deserted island, it would be her iPad.

She is author of Mobilize! Marketing Mobile Content in an iPhone and iPad Era and blogs at iPhoneEra.com.
AKA basically works for Apple.

This is some absolute bottom-feeder shit.

how the hell did you last 2 minutes??? I was wanting to find her and hurt her after about 50 seconds and when she mentioned using the "cue" feature to check if something that is "risky" sounds right i physically couldn't carry on watching. cause mixing Dubstep and Breakbeat is really risky, no one has ever done that before... oh wait a sec....

Actually, who's up for chipping in for her flights and booking her for a set over here so we can all turn up and show her exactly what we think of her?
