No, I dont play at clubs and no I dont charge for entry to the parties that I do play at. So therefore that makes my opinon invalid or something does it? I already stated that if you want to have a deck with features then Dennon is the one to go for, if you want to mix at clubs, then go the Pioneers.
And I really have no idea what your referring to when you say "using effects to bring in my cued song" and that your somehow spoiling my trick? Yes, most DJ's have tricks. Isnt that what its all about? If you can explain this better, I might be able to respond to it, but your just not making a lot of sense here dude.
What has time got to do with applying effects? Your saying it takes 8 mintues to do a trick with a deck? What sort of trick are we talking here? Not really dude... for example... set up your cue... 3 sec reverse play... followed by a backspin with a flanger for arguements sake and then cue back into a loop. OK, thats like 4 tricks or effects in the space of about 5 seconds mate. Something like that is a bit excessive (but can sound excellent if you do it right), I'm just showing that fx dont need to dominate a set. But then I mix psytrance and tech which is a lot more forgiving of experimenting and beatchopping than what uplifting is, which seems to be based mainly on track selection and not clashing the melodies.
Anyway, I'm preaching to a brick wall here. Pioneer and trance are synonymous. OK, you win Dennons buttons are GaY =) |
my simple statment is that the addition of such features wont' make you a better dj if you still don't know how to beatmatch. therefore unless you know the basis of mixing, and using tt's, or cd players the effects will be more damaging than helping to you. bring in your cued song - mix in the next song...
to disaprove with your theory that pioneers are in clubs everywhere, all over where i live denon's 3000 or 5000 are currently used in clubs, why because mostly all the djs that play there know how to beat count and can't mix a song in to save their lives without an addition of flagger, break or whatever else.
back to my point, because this is dragging on without any purpose, the effects are useless if you're a shity dj, and if you can mix well without them then they will help you in your set. but that doesn't mean you must buy a cd player with build in features (you can get an efx).
