Hi y'all
2 questions if I may:
1. I got ableton,... using a laptop I find it very dificult to control the pitch with the laptop touchpad. I'm trying to mix from TTs to ableton in a 2 TTs + ableton setup. For those of you, how do you change the pitch? I don't think I can get used to the touchpad :(
2. I've never used CD players to mix, but getting gigs recently where CDjs are always available, the temptation is too much. For those who have used TT and CDjs; would it be too risky to take a CD and try it out live? I'd play what I play @ home with ableton :)
thanks |

| if you mixed on vinyl, id rather you dont play live of cdjs for the 1st time, cause theres a pretty big difference, although it may seem easy |

| maybe ssl/fs2 would be a better option than ableton |

| There is nothing wrong with CDs. It would be better if you could do a set or two on CDs at a friends house before you do it live, but if you can mix on vinyl you should be able to mix just fine on CD decks. Actually I think they're a bit easier. |
