i've used one, but not too in depth. just from the couple of hours i spent with it i myself will be buying one. its a great tool. the sound is not the best but ok. i mainly used it to loop vocal cuts and extend the ends of my tracks.

hope this helps clovis

Baisically it will let me do what I like about ableton (creating seamless loops of a certain # of bars that hold perfect time) and let me get more creative while mixing.

We're gonna get it on Thursday so I'll report back with how I like it.

yep. thats what it does. i just love the fact it keeps perfect tempo. trying to make a perfect loop on a cdj is near impossible. right now i use an extended delay loop on my efx to loop stuff. but i will be getting the pvdj in a few weeks.

Picking one of these up sometime in the next couple weeks... They're loads of fun

Werd, I can make small loops on CDJs but making a 16 bar loop that will hold time is fucking impossible

why's that? i've been thinking about getting new cdjs mainly for the better pitch resolution and looping. now i have to edit every intro/outro i need to extended on my computer first and the burn, which is a fucking hassle. but i dunno if it's worth it then if the looping function is crap on the cdjs!

It's not crap, it's just difficult.

If you're decent enough at riding the pitch and have a fair amount of practice at looping, you can hold a 16 beat loop for a decent enough amount of time, but it takes a lot of work/practice.

These things make it so fucking easy it hurts...

Again, I must stress, these are a LOT of fun.

If you are looping with the cdj's your finger must press the loop button EXACTLY when the new bar starts/ends. If you are off by just a fraction of a second its noticeable.

+1

its not that cdj looping functions are crap, its just damn hard to be as accurate as a machine.
