Use vinyls and not cd's? what are the advantages of the 2 types of djing???

1) Tradition ... most DJs started out with vinyl when there wasn't pitch-adjustable CDs. Most new DJs just followed the footsteps of the older ones ...

2) Better control and accuracy of mixing. It is a lot more natural to see your music and directly manipulate it on the turntable platter than to push buttons and mess with the jog wheel on a CD player.

There are a lot of myths about better sound quality floating around but I highly doubt that anyone could tell the difference between CD and Vinyl (both in ideal condition) on an average club system - it is just too loud to be able to hear the characteristics of the medium.

I think if you want to be on top of Djing...u have to know both..... especially with the technology of the internet you might find a song the night before and want to play it u can.....but then there is the control with vinyl.....so i say why not use both...most big clubs or venues will have both set up already so i say learn both.... cuz its not about what you use its about what songs you through down and how well you can mix them.....no matter if its cd or vinyl
