just tried real mixing...impressed
I just came back from a friend's house, who's got a mixer and runs from 2 CD players, an old receiver to amplify and an EQ deck.
He taught me how to mix trance, and I feel so proud!!!
It's such a great feeling to make a smooth, sexy transition between your favourite tracks!!! I now have a new impression about DJs who mix only. It is a skill and I have begun to hone that skill!!
Being a producer, I definitely want to get into DJing as well.
Just had to comment. Maybe others have had the same "revelations"??
PS. I beautifully mixed Boys of Summer (Cosmic Gate Remix) into Icarus (Daedelus remix)...and omfg it was so wicked!!!!!
I can now see how my next major purchase will be a mixer and MP3/CD deck.

why dont go for a pair of Decks??.. its fuunier than CD, and will feel more like REAL mixing

Vinyl are so much better...it feels great. I produce and dj, after a bit work on my track a cold beer and a good mixing session wif the girlys round rocks man

Vinyl elitists...
Do what you want...CDJing is cool, and so is vinyl DJing.
Here we go again. There's a whole sticky thread about vinyl v cd.
Good to hear, nothing like a great mix

If you mixed a set on a pair of cdj's, nobody could tell the difference between vinyl save for maybe the absence of popping and clicking...
Ohhhhhh. Good quote. Go me!

I think its much harder to mix with TT's than it is with CD's. There's alot more of technique and skills involved with a TT than with a CD. Allthough, mixing using a CD is fun too, but I stick with vinyl!
really?

It's just that it would be better if they mixed on vinyl thats all.

When mixing with Vinyl you feel more proud that you actually purchased the song you are playing at a high price rather than bloody downloaded the thing. DEATH TO CD-DJ |
lol some people are just 2 sad i calling no name "Dj_Psygnosis
", what the hell has a meduim to do with djing, it's just a thing to get your sound to ya mixer, and the meduim doesn't make you a good or bad dj, its the way you handle it it's the way you mix, you can even be a pro dj with a tape record as long if it's sounds good
hmm this is my opinion
