QUOTE(BloodyBusted @ May 26 2010, 10:27 AM) last time i tested it at my mates place, it feels really good. definitely worth every cent. wouldnt have sold mine if i wasnt buying cdjs. built really solid and doesnt feel "plastic" at all.. i reckon the extra 800 is worth spending tho.. great to chuck into your bag for gigs n stuff. you know it wont fall apart when you get there. has a really weighty feel to it. mostly metal cept for the knobs, faders & jogwheels. buttons have nice feel to them too and yeah it does come with an inbuilt soundcard. you can use it straight out of the box with the included traktor le. fairly idiot-proof too. just plug n play. |

QUOTE(serialskillerz @ May 27 2010, 06:48 PM) its not bout cost of cds...its a matter to burn 20,000 song of my collection,its takes alot lot of my time..thanks for advice.. how often have you spun 20,000 tracks during your gigs? this is where preparation comes in. listen, learn and have a feel for all your tracks. then burn what you know you'll definitely play. no point burning so many tracks if you're not gonna use them anyway |

QUOTE(serialskillerz @ May 28 2010, 03:25 AM) nowaday auto sync is posible to mixing 8 deck simultaniously,but there is no point to spoil the music..atleast slot for sample scratch n beat looping.. i guess so but if you're just mixing commercial crap then i think its just not worth the effort |

QUOTE(apexitrust @ May 28 2010, 01:37 PM) thats not entirely true. with the sort of technology out there, you dont really need turntables anymore. a pair of X1s hooked up to traktor connected to a proper mixer and you're all set.with controllers, the only limit is your imagination. having said that, if you plan on becoming a turntablist or sumthn then yeah i guess you do need some basic knowledge. otherwise dont bother. |

QUOTE(apexitrust @ May 28 2010, 04:28 PM) i will laught at the fella on the deck if he use X1 beat match with sync button lol . Ableton is a good software if equip with proper midi beatmatching is a skill. not an artform. just cos you can beatmatch doesnt mean you're gonna have a great set. it just means you can get 2 records spinning together at the same speed. hooray check out dubfire's timewarp 2010 set. might keep you laughing for bout an hour or so. |

QUOTE(apexitrust @ May 29 2010, 12:45 PM) he mix a great set but be notice that he is a professional dj level , i bet he know how to use TT and he is sponsored by Traktor .... whether he knows how to use tts or not is immaterial. its the fact that he ditched the "traditional setup" in favour of his current setup.so you're saying once you've made it big you can get away with auto-sync but if you're just starting out then its frowned upon? what kinda logic is that. a dj's job is to entertain a crowd. nobody gives a shit if you can beatmatch the hell out of 2 records. |

QUOTE(apexitrust @ May 30 2010, 04:36 AM) then there is no point for you to post in here you can just post in event and gathering thread , i m talking about skills , a basic knowledge for a dj is beatmatch . Agree ? all im tryina say is that with the wealth of options available to us right now, beatmatching isnt really that necessary. you can let the software handle that part while you get creative with your mix. sheesh you could have a maschine hooked up to ableton or a faderfox to traktor or apc40 controlling loops, etc.... you dont necessarily have to go the TT>CDJ>controller path anymore. you can jump straight to wtv you feel suits your style the best. |

QUOTE(speedfamgirl @ May 30 2010, 12:52 AM) if talking about the original cdj1000 1st gen, for sure they're lot cheaper than new 800mk2. if you wanna get used dj gear from sg try checkin out this webbie. they got some good deals on technics decks.but the 1000mk3, although dropping in price since the release of 2000 so very hard to get...it's almost legendary! same like technics 1210mk2 with original cover & headshell. still struggling to get another TT though... another question, is it advisable buying TT from nearby country like Philippines & Singapore, then ship them to M'sia? shipping costs may be cheaper than buying from US... http://www.frontallabs.com/phpBB3/index.php |

QUOTE(BloodyBusted @ May 31 2010, 10:36 AM) the sync button.. and what would this so called "most important" factor be exactly?genius function for djs or the start of downfall of djs.. with the sync function intact, anyone and everyone can simply beatmatch a song with a touch of a button.. the once "most important" factor is no longer relevant anymore. |

QUOTE(BloodyBusted @ Jun 2 2010, 02:43 PM) perhaps to find the proper cue to the song at the first beat or whatever preference of the deejay itself.. i thought the most important thing would be to entertain the crowd. make sure they have a good time and shit. to beatmatch without using the sync button and bar counting and going into the next song at perfect timing.. missing it at the perfect point of enter the song would make things harder for the dj to wait for the next few bars to enter..which i personally feel is the challenging part..which makes not using the sync button a very important factor to be a dj.. Added on June 2, 2010, 2:48 pmbtw..i'm not saying using the sync button is wrong or unethical for a fact..i'm just saying that beatmatching without the use of the sync would make things more challenging..makes deejaying one bit more fun.. crowd might not know half the things you do behind the decks..but other djs might..even so...most importantly is the personal pleasure playing a perfect set knowing that one did not use the sync button.. just my 2 cents... if you're using the sync feature to get 2 records spinning together then its pointless. but if you can utilise the sync feature to enhance your set some how then why not embrace it. i.e connecting ableton to traktor, etc.. i dont know why its still considered taboo. kinda reminds me of the vinyls vs cds debate not too long ago. |

QUOTE(sayming @ Jun 5 2010, 03:57 PM) Hey guys, any review on the Behringer DJX-700? Worth getting? Sorry for all the noob gear questions. Trying to gather a set pretty decent 4 channel mixer if you're on a budget. has tons of effects, though most of em are pretty pointless anyway.layout is pretty similar to a djm600 so you wont have any familiarity issues with it. |
