Check out Pacemaker on pacemaker.net


What I meant was, acceptance wise how would you rate a DJ using a computer doing his real time mixing. Would you sctratch his name from your list of "DJ's to See/Listen" or don't care as long as he/she does a good job.
It's a lot more easier but has its challenges and added benefits such as so called "Harmonic Mixing" etc. In any case instead of dials, knobs or buttons a DJ holding a mouse looks funny. HW interfaces such as ICUE's mix station brings back the "hands on activity" and it is cheap.

I don't care what a DJ does to make me feel good. What you do with your hands is secondary to the processes of your brain...
If I could choose between CDJ's or a virtual solution I'd go for the latter simply because it appears to be the future in every aspect. When the CDJ's came in, the Turntablists freaked and put on a purist kind of attitude but gradually the screaming stopped and the learning process kicked in. Same thing applies with file mixing via a laptop...
Besides the greater flexibility I am interested in the mobility factor and what will emerge in this regard...have you checked out Pacemaker? What do you reckon?


Posted by Tranceilvania on Feb-04-2008 14:25:

Yeah, had a look at their website. Looks like an overgrown Ipod. I don't know the capabilities of it yet but Mixmeister with dual sound card or any other SW based mixing system is the way to go IMO.

Yes, Abelton is a very good program for sequencing and working on your tracks in a studio even making a mix but are you using it for djing?

actually its a sick venue for a party. pharmacy black was awesome there but that was probably because it wasnt chockablock

it will be shit for tiesto because it will be packed to the rafters



was never going to be at rod laver cos foo fighters are playing there that night. i thought it would be at vodafone as its the only other suitable venue

electro party??


Posted by christos on Feb-08-2008 02:41:

I reckon it'll still be a good party. They'll need to do something about the cooling, it roasts in there. I hope the lighting rig doesn't take up half the venue.

Anybody know when tickets will be released?

I saw him in Canada, great memories.
Can't say i've listened to much of his music since then


Posted by Trance Nutter on Feb-08-2008 09:47:

Yeah so I'm gonna be o/s for this, and the burning desire to see Tiesto died out about 4 years ago.
