By all accounts, it's much easier once you get the hang of it, which I'm sure will be in no time. I mean, just use vinyl mode and there you go.

its so much easier, in terms of correcting a beatmatch gone wrong just ride the pitch...digital > analog but thats just my opinion *puts on flame resistant vest*.

but anyways how come your forced to play hiphop???

hip-hop is popular where i'm from... noone likes house, trance, or anything like that. they just wanna hear the pop and rap you hear on the radio... at first i hated it, but i've learned to adapt... i have instra loops and hooks and stuff that i incorporate and a lot of people are like ~ whoah we never heard anything like this before.. there are only 2 turntable dj's in town and i work under the other guy (he has the speakers, amps, lights, etc). its like a monopoly and we are making good money. he doesnt mix a lot, but he's really good at scratching into tracks and knows how to work a crowd. i have a different style and a lot of people have been telling me they like how i blend the songs together and stuff... i'm making enough money and have saved thousands of dollars and am ready to dump some of it into my setup.. i love the idea of having 2 cdj1000's and a djm-800 ~ that's the pinnacle if you ask me...

I own both, Turntables and CDJs, and Serato... Honestly, you're in for a treat! It's much easier with CDJs. Plus if you use CDJs with Serato, a lot of the familiar problems will go away. Calibration is no longer necessary.

Serato and CDJ's is a match made in heaven.

It's much easier. It will take you know time at all if you're used to turntables.

Is it really nice?

I'm going to pick up the new m-audio product, and probably use it with my 1200's (because I already have CDJ-1000's, and the 1200's are under used these days).

Might play around with it on the cdj's as well though.

I like the idea of organizing music into playlists on the fly and such, which is hard to do with CDR's.

You'll like them better than turntables as They're easier to mix on.

I found a bundle consisting of 2 cdj1000mk3's and 1 djm800 brand new for 3600.00. is that a good price? how long do you think i will be using this equipment before it becomes obsolete? I'm hoping to get at least 5 years out of it... and what happens if it breaks?

thanks

They don't have any wow and flutter. The pitch is the same on all of them. The jog wheel is great for pitch bending whereas I would never touch a record to pitch bend. Etc...
