Ok first of all this is meant to be constructive criticism. Overall I'd probably rate it 9/10 for technical ability, you can beat match (only 1 error really dectable), eq match, and mix pretty well, however these are the bad points.

1.) Voice sample at the beginning used via FX machine toooo powerful, causing peak-out, gain needs to be reduced. Sounded exactly what it was, sample over the top of a track.
2.)Near the end particularly, you wait too long before dropping in the new track, though this makes for more seamless mixing since you have generally less going on during the mix so it sounds "cleaner", it also means it sounds almost like a fade out - fade in.
3.) I bet you have a Pioneer EFX-500 rigged up to your mixer, me too, and you use it in the last track. It sounds too powerful as well, and also think you may have it rigged up wrong cause you're getting some interferance when using the sample, used to get this on mine when used as a separate channel on the mixer, it's best positioned on the record out signal.

Some of the tracks at the start not really my scene but you're pretty damn good overall, and you can build a set nicely. How long you been playing for?

My guess is that dirty ape downloaded it off the internet and burned it on cd, simple and easy

Sorry, I didn’t check the link – I thought it was directly to the file!

For all you curious souls, I'll let you in on a secret: This was done using only MP3's and Atomix, but without the auto-mixing feature. So the beatmatching isn't really representative of what I'd be like on with turntables (although It would certainly take me longer to beatmatch). I don't have decks, but at some point in the future I'll have the money to pick some up. I really just wanted to concentrate on the phrase matching and set structure to see if it's worth getting decks and learning how to be a real DJ.

I don't have an FX machine, that's the work of the producer (Rikesh of these boards). I think the gain was me however, as I'm just learning how to use it properly.

Again this is part of the software. Atomix seems to record very poorly, and this probably related.

About 2 months, but I have a background in music which really helps with the phrase matching and the chord mixing (I can't remember the exact name at the moment).

Thanks for the feedback! It's nice to know that I can manage to make some half-decent music without ever touching a record...
