very nice competition, I'm gonna give it a shot but something's bothering me

track selection and mixing ability fine but about creativeness and sound quality, will you take in mind that some people have better mixers e.g. pioneer, allen & heath that have inbiult effects and also others have external effectors, this allows them to be more creative than others and also produce better sound quality :/

Folks that have their hearts in the activity will put more money into the hobby.

(I own a Numark mixer. Welcome to the life of a poor college kid. But I have some money in the bank, and if I really wanted to have those extra effects, I could pony up that cash.)

I'll do my best, lets hope you're right

so guys, how many track are you gonna try and fit in 55 mins?

I'm thinking about 8 or 9

hehehe this sounds interesting...i wonder what everyone will play hehehe...i've already found my intro song...its prefect hehehe...you all don't stand a chance muhahahaha

Remember it's not always about the equipment. Cuz most mixers ex. like the pioneers may have additional features like BPM counters, or better tables like Technics. But the thing that can take a lot of effect is the way you DJ in the first place. The equipment that might be a big thing is of course RECORDING equipment, which can get expensive, and if you don't have the high quality of it, your mix isn't going to sound good. Too bad i bought a MD where over 13hours of my mixes are on there(which means i gotta scarf up enough cash to get a nice recorder). But remember taht equipment for DJ'n won't factor as much as recording equipment. My quess is the only thing that's gonna take a little bit of a factor for quality mixers is that looping and sampling effect.

Well happy DJ'n everybody, I'ma try to compete in this one.
