Re: Vinyl only Dj's

[QUOTE=JK224;568946]

I think it takes too much out of the equation in terms of djing and quite simply I think it's lame. Using a program to dj which sorts tracks by key and then does the mixing for you...? Not my idea of a challenge.[/QUOTE]

I used techs when i started 20yrs ago...starting in 2000 I have keyed my music. I just used the wheel( if you have one you know what I mean) but convienince has led me to go digital......and mixing on a computer is very nice, there are so many on the fly things you can do...when I play out its on cdj's and all my tracks are keyed. theres no preprograming just plain fun, even when I play w/ software its off the cuff....I can just loop and edit all at the touch of a button which makkes it more excitng to me....its all about what you do with what you use and where and when you doit.

[quote=88Mariner;572079]keep the 12's. you could go through a divorce, bankruptcy, whatever...and you'll always have your Technics. Something about being with vinyl that is more real than 'mxing' on a computer.

It's the difference between fvcking a hot blonde babe, and a robot with a blonde wig.[/quote] Totally agree with that mate ... you just can't beat the "feel" of mixing with vinyl
