Who cares? If its trance, its probably 139-140. House (Electro): 130-132 - House (Funky): 130 - House (Deep), Minimal, Progressive: 120-125.
Am I missing something? |
Since when does anyone buy practical ? |

lol it doesn't serve any practical use. It's just a fun gimmick. |
I doubt it, there will be a bunch of suckers that buy it, thinking that the watch will make them better DJs.
PS: Tiesto, if youre reading this, it wont help you. |

well, that's just stupid. Tapping is inaccurate enough, as is, let alone doing it on a wristwatch. |

Personally, I dont understand why people care what the BPM is, when I mix, I just let the pitch go to work - 15-20 seconds later, its beatmatched, OMG IM GOD! |

deaf Djs have it hard.
first they need an old fashioned K-mart timer

they set it to 1 minute, then look at the oscillator doing the sound from deck#1.

then they have to jot down the number of jumps in a 1 minute period.

so, so deck#1 has 148 jumps. Then Dj Monobass has to tally deck#2. Then the Dj has to do the precise math to how much percent change will be in effect for Deck#1 to mix perfectly into jump#2.
He of course, has to do this all while deck#1 is playing to the audience, so he should have JUST enough time to error-check his math, round to the nearest hundredth, and carry the 1 before making the most mathemetically precise X-fade ever witnessed. |
