It's funny how mp3s should make things simpler, but you end up buying MORE kit these days.

Most nightclubs (that I know) have CDJs installed as a default, so they're good to know in case the promoter doesn't allow you to hook up your own kit. Some clubs barely have enough room in the booth for a laptop and midi controller, let alone TTs.

Of course, if you're a DJ that only plays vinyl, the promoter is probably going to know that before they book you.

edit: It should be said I'm mostly talking about the trance scene here, where thanks to the big labels vinyl is all but dead. The techno and deep house parties are much more vinyl-friendly from what I've seen.

Wow.

Originally posted by dj_alfi That's a faulty statement. If they still sold playable vinyl, then yes.

As opposed to the non-playable vinyl?

Did you regret buying it or are you trying to upgrade to the CDJ2000?

Haha, more like 6-7 years ago. I find it's pretty hard discovering anything but the more commercial stuff, unless you really stay on top of the stores to get the more underground stuff. And I of course mean commercial in the broadest sense of the word.

I didnt even know that existed -- just saw a video of it and it looks confusing. I just dont use it. I have not used it in like 3 years.
