How helpful are the waveform displays on the CD Decks you guys have?
How do you use them? |

Helps if you don't know the tune you're playing, so you have general idea when when the break is coming and whatnot.
Helps if you like doing like 3 min transitions.
Helps if you like doing little tricks and such (overlaying clips from an another tune on top of current tune playing and such)
I find waveform display of incredible help. |

| Some tracks have tricky structures so when you first play those tracks its helpfull to have that waveform |

I've got to admit that I've become too dependent on my waveform display, to the point where I feel lost when using my mates 800's.
I find it extremely useful, not for phrasing (as that's just a natural thing) but knowing when little drops are coming up etc
Although in the long run, I know that this will go against me as it makes you a little lazy when having to remember ya tracks. |

This is what I intend to use it for when I play live on CDJ1000s, but seeing that I've just got 800s at home I've never got into the habit of reading it |

| I've got 800s but I sometimes use the waveforms on Torq for tracks I'm not as familiar with. |

+1 when I'm on Traktor
I find myself a bit sad when I'm spinning on my CDJ-700s ;) |
