| Would you pay 40 $ to see a guy stand behind the decks and not even mix ? |

what do you mean not even mix?
so if he's using cd's, mp3's he's not mixing tracks? just because he's not using vinyl doesn't mean he's not mixing. |

| if the comp does the mixing for him, then he is not mixing |

| the comp does the mixing? a cross fader in a program is still a cross fader? |

this isnt final scratch, if he doesnt beat match, fades channels out ect
he isnt mixing |
|
|
| Alexan |
he does beat match and fade channels out just using a comp
and you still haven't explained why it's "disgusting" |

i doubt many of you guys that're jawing back and forth have seen him do this live in person... looked like he's putting in some good work despite the fact that he's using his powerbook up there. and yes i saw him at the start of his fundacion residency here at crobar, new york. now i don't know what for sure he's doing behind the computer, but
his live remixing is wicked and
he still makes us all dance like crazy...
i'd really love to see the exact set up he has...
on an end note, he's entitled to do what he likes.

actually I'd be suprised if he wasn't using a mixer connected via midi to his laptop. listen to involver, and listen to the tracks he used by themselves and you'll see the involver version's are different. He used ableton live on involver and the whole thing was him remxing in real time.
don't like his style? don't listen to it, nobody's forcing you to. think what he's doing is disgusting then complain to him about that not on here.
This was from an interview he did with DJTimes...
DJ Times: Ableton Live ReWired into Logic Audio is still your main setup?
Sasha: Yeah, and the thing is, this week, the guys from M-Audio sent me a load of controllers to test with [Ableton] Live. I hooked up the controllers to Live on my laptop, and I was DJing with it at home. It's really amazing.
Notice how he said I was "DJing at home" |

I use ableton almost everyday. How the hell can you tell if I can or can't grasp a program from one stupid comment?
Not spending so much time on beatmatching is a step forward, it gives you more time to be more creative and add different things to the songs. Sasha can go back to vinyl anytime he wants you know? But he chooses this so you should respect his decision. |
