That sounds pretty cool man, seriously!!!
But, seriously tho, I know you're talented and all but I have some questions PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ don't take offense in anything I ask, I don't want another TA rivalry It's just for my knowledge of what exactly you guys are doing. Thank you in advance 
1) How are you gonna cue your first beat of the track coming in without being able to hear it? Sure, you can hear it through the monitors but that means the dancefloor can hear it and that really doesn't sound good, from my experience. Not every track starts with a kick, nor does every track start as soon as you press the play button. Sometimes, there's a 5 (or so) second delay before you hear anything.
2) How do you want anyone to believe (I'm not saying you can't do it) that you're not looking at your BPM? It's right there, in your face, telling you that 0.8% = 1 BPM (if you use that system, that is). If you put some duct tape over that spot on the CDJs, I'll believe you   JUST KIDDING!!!
The way I see it, you'll bring in your track, it'll be off for like, 3-10 seconds (or however long it takes you to fix it...1 second, in your case , 5000000000000000 seconds in mine ) and then it'll sound great. But, that doesn't make for a perfect mix, no? IMO, if there's any "offness" whatsoever, then the mix is not perfect, it needs work.
I realllllllllllly wanna come see you guys, it's been way too long. And this concept is beyond interesting to me, so for sure I wanna check it out! My only problem is exams   I can't fuck around too much unfortunately. I'll try to come but can't promise it. Please take videos (as you guys usually do) so I can see this magic happen somehow
