"

BOO!!!

that's funny that he said that because he also refuses to let ableton dj/producers open up for him when he does the exact same thing and it seems as though, that is exactly what he is raving about here as being a true artist..I do get his point though..a-b djs are ****s what's the talent in mixing from one cd to the next??

Not as easy as it looks. The turntable is an instrument.

being a dj..cdj are easier than they even look..not that difficult to get two tracks in sync.doing live re-edits, cutting tracks up and keeping everything in harmonics requires much more talent than pressing play on a cdj and nudging a little to get it in sync.

lol this is going to suck.

Disagree - but I haven't had a great deal of experience with CDJs. Currently I'm using (1) Denon DNS-3500 CDJ and (2) Technics SL-1200MK2 turntables. I prefer vinyl if possible.

I agree...

I agree that turntables are harder but not many people use them anymore and it is very hard to even find vinyl at a reasonable price for it to be worth it. I still don't understand why he doesn't like other ableton djs to open up for him though?? Is he afraid??

Oh God why did this turn into "another deadmau5 thread"
