Serato just works, plain and simple. It does exactly what I want it to do.

I agree with u...trance with the typical Ableton usage has not sounded good from what I have heard.

Shoot me down if you want, i never post in these ableton wars but IMHO, you can of course use Ableton to do tonnes of creative stuff in any genre.

However to me, Trance is a but more simple. Not in a bad way, but i think it has more of a linear flow compared to other genres. Introducing too many sources can sometimes ruin it for me. Compared to other genres where you can layer tonnes of inputs on top of each other.

I dunno, just my 2c. Of course you can use it though (ableton).

If i was starting from scratch, i'd probably get myself some CDJ's. However, i love my 1210's and Serato.

Get a good mixer though. Too many people skimp on the mixer.

i just think theres a vast difference between good creativity and creativity used just to make something sound different. trance is often already so packed and mudded with sounds its kind of pointless
