When I use Ableton, yes. Otherwise no.

Not on my 800MK1's. Yes in Traktor and Ableton.

If you answered no, or are going to answer no could you explain why you choose not to ?

If you use master tempo on MP3 CD's in any CDJ, it will sound like crap -- very digital, choppy, and tinny. WAV's burned onto CD as audio tracks sound fine though.

I do on my cdjs. I know that I shoudn't though because it has made a cd of mine skip a time or two when it doesn't with master tempo off. I should probably just not have it on at all, but I love to fuck with the jog while mixing on cdjs so if I don't have it on then it all sounds wank.

Originally posted by jvankampen20 I have been following Tiesto since 99. I was immediately enthralled by what I still regard the best electronic CD ever compiled, Magik VI Live in Amsterdam. This CD is loaded with uplifting, energetic, blood moving tracks intricately mixed with angelic perfection. From that moment on, I could feel the magik flowing through my veins while listening to the music that Tijs carefully samples and produces. His creativity allows him to develop the concepts of songs that bring life and energy to people around the world.

Occasionally, as a tool, in Traktor. (IE, if I really want to play a track...especially one that's not something you'd typically put in an EDM set, and the BPM is drastically different, I will. However, I usually use that track layered with a non-keylocked track or drum-beat to make any artifacts less noticeable.)

9 times out of 10 no on my 1000s. If its Ableton, then yeah i do but i rarely use Ableton for any type of DJing anymore.

The reason i dont use it for the 1000s is once you get out of a certain BPM Range your quality is slightly sacrificed. Besides that, sometimes i like to pitch a song up by 8 BPM, which is half a note.

Example: Deck one is playing a toon in D# at 140 BPM

The track i want to come in in deck 2 is in D at 132 BPM

So by pitching the track on deck 2 up by 8 BPM to 140...it now becomes D# and they fit.

Sometimes this sounds god awful with certain tracks so that always gives you another reason to know your tracks inside and out.

Just my 2 centsss

you mean there's a button for it on the 1200s?

yes on ableton, but then i don't live mix with ableton...
