I'm not sure what you're doing here. This is a blatant troll that offers no input to the discussion.
M-Audio is a part of Avid, so yes, it is Avid. Secondly, it's not Pro Tools? No shit, Captain Obvious. That's like saying Microsoft Office is not Windows Media Player. Okay they're different products. But what does that have to do with the quality of either one?
I find it absolutely ridiculous that people are talking shit about M-Audio's track record. They are a part of Avid, who created Pro Tools - a product without which we would never have even heard of Serato Audio Research. Need I remind everyone that SAR got their start with Pitch N Time for Pro Tools?
I'm not an M-Audio fan boy, but I do enjoy Torq for what it is. I have no hate for Serato and SSL is a great product, but to be honest the fan boys are really starting to piss me off. All I hear is shit about track record and how Torq is "not a proven product." At exactly which point does it become a "proven product"? Where's the line? I've been using Torq at home and at gigs since it was released, and I haven't had a single problem. There are big name DJs using it as well (DJ Heather, for example). What else do you need?

NEFARDEC,
I have seen you say in several threads that people use Serato in place of beatmatching skill to mix. Please tell me how that is possible when Serato does NOT do auto beatmatching. Your comments seem a bit biased on these programs with no real basis in how they work or can be used. Just because you may be running into shit DJ's using a certain program , doesn't mean it's because of the software, it just means they are shit DJ's.

as far as the topic goes, I used to use serato, I first used it a year and a half ago. It was always pretty solid.
However, I definitely had some USB problems playing 3hour+ sets, and even though I have done gigs with ableton and serato before, I really am not sold on computers in a live party situation: they're too delicate.
The last time I used serato was at a ridiculous house party that ended in serato being fried by some sort of alcohol spill and me stringing five backup records back to back for about 45 minutes before I got a cable that let me just mix in one of my recorded sets. It was my previous partner's Serato, luckilly.
Serato is good for playing parties where you want to get as wasted as the dancers. It's pretty much idiot-proof and so easy compared to real beatmatching. I was using it back before key lock. The new scratch live sounds great, with the video/midi/pitch n time, but I think I am going to stick with my ears for a while yet.
There are too many DJs now, and one of the reasons for that I think is serato actually. At my university alone I know of probably 4 or 5 DJs who use serato as a substitute for skill. |
Just want to say you're completely full of shit. Serato is no replacement for being a DJ. Either you can DJ or you can't. Beatmatching does NOT equal proper DJing.
I learned how to DJ on technics turntables and used them in clubs/bars/lounges/raves for years before Serato came out. For someone like you to say that since I purchased Serato that I'm not a real DJ then fuck you and you can eat rhinoscerous dung for the rest of your meager pathetic life. Bitch
I believe jealousy has begun to rear its ugly head.
