I'm still lost why there's people that hate FS with a passion. I mean, all PvD has done is eliminate the need to lug around his massive collection of vinyls. He's ripped them into a computer for easier storage, and the quality is exactly the same if not better. Hell, he even CONTROLS all of the song THROUGH the usage of vinyls. It's not like he's using a keyboard and mouse to DJ his way through. The only time he touches the mouse and keyboard is when he selects which tracks to play. From there, the mixing is done through the vinyls. Am I missing something here? Cuz I really don't think that I am. I've watched videos of him during livesets using Final Scratch. He's at the computer for about 15-20 seconds just picking his next song. And for the next several minutes, he's back at the decks. He spends the same amount of time on the computer that he would when searching through his vinyl collection looking for the next track to play.

In conclusion, he is not mixing mp3's. He's mixing AIFF's. He doesn't use FS because it's easier to mix. He uses it because he doesn't wanna get a hernia carrying around all of his vinyls.

For all who think that because PVD uses FSPro that he cannot spin as good must surely be kidding themselves. The guy is a world class DJ hint, hint, he knows a thing or two about spinning as much as any other quality DJ out there, just my guess

Why is PVD so popular? Shitheads like this.

he does have his nice nights as a DJ. but i thought Reflections, PVD as the producer, it was a slap in the face to all trance listeners. PVD was great on his last album, ground breaking tracks. but Reflections was just too simple and some people might cover it by saying its too "sophisticated for trance n00bs", it was shit. accept it.
Paul! you are not a god!

you RETARD. reflections isn't even supposed to be a 100% trance album. if you read anything about him, you will find that he is moving towards many directions in production. look at BT, i kno some people were dissing him as a dj, but as a producer, he's great. but how many of his tracks are simialr to his trance-like flaming june. not many. his style varies so many genres. i'm sure after producing so much trance, pvd has gotten bored and is experimenting in other genre's. so get off his back. let the producers produce,

Why did i enjoy Out There and Back then? It had a lot of styles from breaks to trance to vocals. It was absolultey stunning and revolutionary. Reflections is NOT. it's a bunch of tones swishing and swashing in an unorganized fashion that does not do anything for electronic dance music. Just compare it to the Ferry Corsten album which is a lot more professional and diverse.

Listen I think if PVD wanted to use vinyl one night in one of his shows he would, I think FS is easier why not if I had the money and I was as big as he is traveling all over the world playing diff venues every weekend I wouldnt want to carry all my records everywhere i go, so what he does is simply artistic, as for his mixing PVD can put us all under the table any day when it comes to mixing FLAWLESS most of the time, When it comes to mixing vinyl and FS hes a pro and one of the best there is. as for Reflections if you dont undestand the man then dont bash him for his album he tryed new genres of music and thats what grabs our attention, Like trancinchink posted Reflections wasnt meant to be all trance. If u listen to PVDs interview he deosnt consider himself just a trance DJ..he is and Electronic music DJ which means all sorts of diff styles of Electronic music, I thought the album was great, Different but thats what I loved bout it something new to my ears, Yes im sure if he wanted to make an album of just trance he could but why would he? Out There and Back was trance and a huge success I love that album, so why do the same thing again. Thats why he made something new for us to listen to I personally think it was a genuis idea changes it up and trys different genres of music.
