CD Decks?

Do the big DJ's e.g. Van Buuren use cd decks? just wondering? Thanks. I've just started to get into trance but i use vinyl decks, just wondering what the pros' use.

Posted by RJT on Oct-20-2006 16:28:

Yes.

do they not use vinyl at all? Because i'm thinking about starting to mix trance tunes but i would get the mp3's and use final scratch to mix.

Vinyl, CD's, Laptops.... They're all used. Perhaps CD's more than anything else right now, but Burridge still plays a lot of Vinyl, PVD uses a laptop, and so forth and so on.

They're all used, use what you like.

I think Armin played about 10 CDR's in his last set and the rest was all vinyl. So when you come to record your first set, you must also use exactly 10 CDR's, and no more. I don't think Armin is using Final Scratch though, so you should probably steer away from that until he starts using it too.

sorry but you did sound like you just want to do what the big djs are doing. but anyway it depends on what genre you listen to at a trance event alot of djs have turned to cd but alot of vinyl still gets used at techno events you will see more vinyl getting used so it depends where you go really.

o.k. thanks, if i start djin trance i'm going to use vinyl because imo you aren't a proper dj unless you use vinyl. I will probably get some stick for this statement but thats just my opinion. lol

And quite rightly so. It is after all, a highly moronic opinion to have.

Dude, play on whatever works out the best for you. If you don't want to spend a lot of money on music then go with the cd route. If you want to go back to basics and start from the ground up then go vinyl. If you are rich, do it all!

i understand where your coming from it still seems abit weird to think that some people are djs and cant use vinyl it will get abit of getting used to. I personaly think you should be able to use both buy some vinyl decks that you want and add some cd decks later on thats what im doing.

Don't think he's digging a hole anywhere.. the real question is who really cares how he wants to play his music.. entering TA is not like entering a frat or something, its the freaking intranet

Spoken like a true idiot. You guys have gotta stick together and look after your own.

This is ironic for so many reasons, I don't even know where to begin.

thats not a very good comparison at all. it doesn't even make sense lol

I can see where the guy is coming from, i still use vinyl but soon i will switch. I used to call those who used cd's, cd pushers and not a real dj and all that. With the technology today though thats all changed.
