Ok so I am leaving to Montreal to go to school and have not option but to leave my CDJ's at home in Vancouver...to get me through this time I have weighed my option's on money and space and have come to the conclusion of labtop djing.
Everybody is raving about Ableton Live but my concern is that this program is more complicated and not meant for what I would be using it for. I do not want to create music just a professional peice of software for mixing my mp3 collection with nothing but my labtop pluged into a receiver?
Another program I keep hearing about is Traktor and since they are comming out with a new version I was thinking that this would be better suited to my needs. What do you think?
And for my needs what would be a good but basic sound card that I should use so I can mix. I don't have firewire but do have USB 2.0
Thank you and sorry if this has been asked before, I just am torn because I have to leave my decks and just want the best solution! |

| if you wanna only mix your mp3s... without any editing or sth like that and using only your laptop (or laptop plus extrnal mixer) Taktor is better solution for you IMO |

| Personally Ableton is much easier to use. In Traktor you still have to pitch bend, but in Ableton you set it and forget it. |
