If you have to stay on a tight budget, get the CDJ-30's, but if you can get the CDJ-100S's.. GET THEM
the difference is very big with the effects and quality between the units.
Even if you have to get used CDJ-100's.. they would be better than new CDJ-30's

Seamless Loop is for marking a point in front or behind where the song is currently playing then pressing a button to seamlessly play from your designated point...
in other words if you havent cued your next track up and the song is going to finish, you can extend the current song so that you have more time for you to cue up..

BTW, the CDJ-30's are nice units, but i would still go the CDJ100s

seamless loop sounds cool. So if say the crowd are really enjoying a track and you want to play over the good bit again, this is a good way to do it?

Thing is, won't it take quite a lot of skill so that there isn't a sudden jump and it blends in?

yes, it can be very tough getting the cue points perfect.

Cue points and seamless loop

Shouldn't I be worried the same way about regular TTs?

Is it really that easier to mix with TTs than with Cd-decks?

I personally think that cd players kick ass. Buying vinyl is a bitch, especially in the states since hard house/trance is only big in the major cities. You can get mp3's for free and they sound just fine. I have two pioneer cdj1000's and they can hang with tt's anyday. You can scratch on them too! Buy pioneer, they make the best cd players, hands down.

But the thing is... you have THE equipment. 1000's damn, even in the US those are pricy. Want to smuggle a couple for me???

MP3s

How do you go about putting MP3s onto a CD? Do you need a CD rewriter?

Also, how many MP3s can you fit onto a CD?

One last thing. Would the sound quality of MP3s be acceptable when playing in front of a crowd at a small venue?

First u convert the MP3s into WAV files using an MP3 decoder , of course u need a cd writer , and you can fit 74 or 80 minutes of music in a CD (it depends on how long the tracks are , if all the tracks are 10 minutes long , then u can put 8 tracks in a 80 minutes CD).

Yes the sound quality is acceptable but i still think owning the original CD is WAAAAAAAAAAAY better
