You should try Native Instruments` Traktor, that`s a great program, be shure you got 2 soundcards, then you can work with the headphones

if you want it for free, you can get it at morpheus or kazaa

traktor is good....you don't need two soundcards if you have something like the soundblaster live (4channel).
Other progs would be Virtual Turntables (VTT), Mixmeister or PCDJ.

before i got my
cd players and the turntable

i had only a mixer
and I used PCDJ RED
I worked with the mixer and sound bluster

worked great.....

I once had PCDJ 2, but I can remember that it was hard to beatmatch with it

i had a special keybord that wasn't ment for this prog. but it worked great.......

yeah ok, but without such an keyboard the program doesn`t work fine....

I am currently using PCDJ Red with a pair of sound cards (but I'm getting an SB Live) and a Gemini PMX-80 mixer. It's great

I find it fairly easy to beatmatch, however, I feel lame for getting into the habit of looking at the bpm counter, but I will pull myself out of it!

I don't find beatmatching that hard once the tempos are matched, just need to get a feel for the pitch bend function I guess.

you can find it in kazaa it's the full version
or you can ask for it next time i am ON-LINE (ICQ)
and I'll send it to you....

Kazaa is a beast when it comes to finding expensive sound processing software
