spend the two minutes it takes to figure out how the 'que' function works, what are they? just a cheap set of pioneers or something? |

I'm after some CD decks, I've seen some Stanton ones for £120 each. |
||||||||

djing w/ cd's is WICKED lame unless your an international sensation like vsnares or john b...in which case lugging vinyl would get fucking old besides that its lame to the MAX |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How? I already use vinyl decks w/ 4 channel mixer. This way I can either DJ from vinyl, DJ from CD's or both. I don't see what the difference is. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
its a cultural difference vinyl collecting is a culture...cd buying is what teenage girls do heeheeheehee im such a catty bitch |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, most people who moan seem to be wittled down to the fact they are jealous over the tunes you have access to with CD decks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im not jealous...thats what white labels are for...if anything you should be jealous of all the non-cd releases there are on vinyl plus you can d'load shit, burn, and play it out like you actually sought out that nugget, purchased it (however expensive it is), and played it out there is little adventure, heartbreak, or experience in cd djing...its mechanical, cold, and lame (i think) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its like djing w/ traktor...unless your mixing YOUR tunes...who cares...anyone w/ one arm can be a dj now...its ruining the art form its like considering yourself a photographer cause you have photoshop and a digital camera...your not, its not, its lame (again...i think) |
||||||||

why can't we all use audiomulch and get along ! |

Playing downloaded tunes is a good way to get shafted off the PRS. You could download free tunes, burn them to CD and mix too. The lines are blurred all over the place. I intend to get some CD decks to connect to my mixer so I can mix my rare vinyl with my CD's. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my lines arent...vinyl only please...no d'loading, no burning, record shops, dusty fingers, then beers ! YAY ! to each his own |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's all good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i could see another excuse being your a collector / former dj (like myself) and you dont wanna hurt your vinyls condition...so you d'load, whatever, burn your stuff to cd to play around with...that would make sense i get mad at kids who dont support vinyl...thats shitty ! |
||||||||

I don't have CD decks yet, my vinyl ends up covered in speed and spew and all sorts. It's there to be used. |
||||||||
|

|
speed and spew...haha remind me to never let you touch my records |
||||||||

"its like considering yourself a photographer cause you have photoshop and a digital camera...your not, its not, its lame." And a musician because you have a copy of fruity loops also? You are funny! Dj'ing is as good a place to start as any other place. I dj with both cds and vinyl also. I also have photoshop and a digital camera. I enjoy using them all. Plus i am sure that professional photographers use photoshop. |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
off course they use photoshop, that's wasn't the point :D point was, technology doesn't make you a photograph everybody can now dj with traktor so it's harder to make true talent recognised i'm not a vinyl purist like euphonicfilter, but he's got a good point with that comparaison imo... |

what's with all this elitism? |

|
|
are you gonna mix live on xlt radio ? when ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe so... Mixing with cds still requires skill though. Granted that not as much. |

Micing with CDs allows you to re-edit or remix tracks. You can't do that with vinyl. And i prefer CDs for music listening becuz I'm not used to chnaging faces every 15 minutes yet (i've got my turntable for only 1 month) But I think vinyls are more fun : seeing a DJ mixing with vinyls is way more interesting than with CDs. And u know that the songs played haven't been actually chosen and bought by the DJ, and not randomly downloaded in 128 kbps. So for me it's CD for listening and vinyls for mixing. I'm gonna buy a second turntable soon hen I have the money (already got the DJ mixer) and as i don't mix what I listen to (but I love both kinds of tunes !), i'm always happy ! By the way I don't care that much, as long as I can enjoy awesome music. |

line 7 : have been chosen... |

By the way, euphonicfilter, you are probably a hip-hop addict who loves the vinyl culture. It'd probably have been the same if I were older and if I had listened to HH for a longer time, but when I began digging hip-hop, I didn't consider buying a turntable so now i've got a lot of albums on CD and won't buy them again on vinyl... I only have a couple of HH on vinyls... |

tolstoyed... i recently had the pleasure of learning how to use an old pair of pioneer decks with a numark kaos pad mixer.. the mixer really helped for making cool sounds with CDs, but at least--- learn how to PAUSE on your preferable downbeat, and hit cue and hold it (all of this on your cue channel of course) and adjust the beat tempo from there. if your decks have a master pitch function it's useful for keeping the pitch the same while fucking with tempos. also, if your decks have loop in / loop out functions, use those as well. n0o0w0w0owow0w: write your own beats at interellated tempos and keys: 5ths apart like 120 / 160 and related roots in melodies etc write them so they offer a lot of content progressing by themselves, but are enjoyable if a bar is looped long enough for you to mix into the other deck, or just to fuck around. you'll look like a wizard with 8 count crossfades AND PERFECT BEAT MATCHING SKILLZ to an unwitting observer |

CD turntables are an awesome way to perform loopbased live sequencing of your own music. |
