Gandy Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 is it just me or would that be super annoying and uncomfortable having the platters all the way up there with a thousand buttons you could accidently hit below it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolDios Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 is it just me or would that be super annoying and uncomfortable having the platters all the way up there with a thousand buttons you could accidently hit below it?Thats what I thought at first, but I caught up with a mobile dj who used one, its achaly pretty good, if your not into scratching, its more for people who use cue points and loops alot.

legunner Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 yeah i have one and i wouldnt reccomend using it for scratching, good unit but Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dim Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 is it just me or would that be super annoying and uncomfortable having the platters all the way up there with a thousand buttons you could accidently hit below it?exactly why i didnt buy one. Not just becasue of scratching but for fine tuning a beat match/nudging too.the 8 loop samplers are very nice but could have been placed better IMO.

Not just becasue of scratching but for fine tuning a beat match/nudging too.the 8 loop samplers are very nice but could have been placed better IMO.I think thats why they put a "shudder shudder" sync "shudder shudder" button on it. Sorta takes away from the fun though :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesome88 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 eh... i'll admit it it.... i used sync when i'm fucked up and can't comprehend numbers lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dim Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 you just made me cryNow I have to repost this:when you cant understand numbers is exactly when you should DJ, especially without sync Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesome88 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 haha, true.... sometimes i do some mad mixes (well, i think they are lol) but i get lazy, then annoyed and just wanna dance lol.... sync = more dance time when you are just mucking around at house parties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dim Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 hahawanting to dance is what stopped me getting major gigs... i would be too busy partying to mix next tune, bit battered, and looking at dj booth wishing dj was better but forgetting I was the dj who had just let the song play out!these were the days b4 even CD players tho. bit more professional now, but still dont want to sink. Loses that opportunity for comedy if I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legunner Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 hahaha sync isn't that bad dude. however it makes mixing alot more boring haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesome88 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 sync still doesn't compensate for song selections, where you bring it in, loops, samples etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legunner Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 sync still doesn't compensate for song selections, where you bring it in, loops, samples etctruealso id like to add that i use the sync function to match the bpm but i do not leave sync on i like manually cueing up and introducing my tracks.
