I was never a purist cuz I started mixing digitally with Atomix and CDJ's have brought new meaning to my life! Before I use to use a digital controller for PCDJ Red along with my cdj's and turntables. but now I just use my cdj's and turntables cuz the mp3 mixers are not that accurate. I would say that I use my cdj's about 70% of the time though.

I find it funny when DJ's are bad mouthing CDJ's or any digital format. To me that just shows pure ignorance. To be honest there is nothing cool about only spinning vinyl. and I hate it when people get some idea in their head that they will abandon vinyl for cd's. Why can't we all just get along and use both in a happy world. If I can get a track on vinyl I will but sometimes you just can't. Also, you can get a track much earlier on MP3 then vinyl most of the time and I just love to play music. This poll will run for a few days but I was just wondering where alot of people stood on this topic cuz lately I've been getting some remarks from people that insinuate that playing anything but vinyl is not cool. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! No doubt that vinyl looks cooler then a cd but the focus of DJing is not format. If it is to you then sorry you are limiting yourself to your cash flow and accessibility to music and YOU WILL NOT GO FAR!

The End

It is because you have never sat down and really worked with Ableton Live! or actually done a set with CDJ's, or Final Scatch, or Serrano Scratch. Educate yourself on the issues man!

badass set up!

seriously though, who argues that djs that don't use vinyl are lame? shit i wish i had cddjs for all the above reasons. sometimes you just can't get tracks on vinyl, and you can always get shit on mp3 first. i'm getting a cdj-800 in 2 weeks. yes...just one...because i am le broke

guess it doesn't matter either way, but ALL cds could get just a little un-fun

could not have said it better myself bas.

i play whatever format I have the track on. My primary format is vinyl, although I play on CDs a lot too...

anyway who the fuck cares.

just play music.

what i would do (had i cddjs) is play all the more popular/easier to find stuff on mp3...and just grab vinyl of the more obscure unknown tracks.

alot of stuff you just can't find on mp3, like all my glorious white labels!

So many unreleased tracks on cd that you have to play it. That was the reason I started to convert some of my play to cd. Now I have two cdj800s, which gives me a lot of flexibility.

i enjoy the hunt for a rare track on vinyl. anyone can get the fuckin mp3 and play the damn thing. i prefer to flip through hundreds of records at amoeba to find that one gem ive been lookin for for a while, rather than downloading it. thats my 2 centavos.

The next generation of CD players will all have full mp3 support, so the DJ of (say) 5 years from now, will simply carry a 500GB/1TB FW Drive (along with a back up) and patch it into the club's CDJs. No CDs to burn, no Vinyl to schlep around or get scratched. This will be the norm in a few years as soon as the technology becomes widespread.
