| I can't wait until the day that I don't buy "tracks" anymore, but rather buy packages of all sorts of different parts and editable sequence files to create my own sounds/sets from tracks/ideas other producers have worked on. |

Lol - just a heads up for you Milo, both Traktor Scratch and SSL will do exactly what you're looking to do as far as combining CD's/Vinyl and Ableton :)
It's a big part of the reason I'm considering it, but probably won't jump simply because I don't have a laptop I'm supremely confident in. |
the only thing stopping me from using Traktor is its lack of MIDI to use in conjunction with Live. I don't feel that I should have to buy two seperate laptops (Hawtin) to do both, which why im still going to spin CD's and start using Live with MIDI in conjunction until the day comes when I can do both on one machine.
What everyone should have done is just made Traktor or Serato into like VST plugins for Ableton, or addon's for it so you can do everything from one program. Until that day comes, I don't think i'll make that final jump. |

Not going to happen in the foreseeable future. Great idea, but too many complications with royalties and who gets a cut of what. |

Your post makes absolutely no sense.

I don't know how the royalty issues become involved, it would seem to me that as far as how the proceeds from such sales would go a system similar to the current arrangement between artists and labels would be pretty feasible.
I don't see this happening all too soon, but to a degree, people are already doing things like this in Ableton. |

thx
seriously tho - I guess I have trouble understanding why you would want to buy other peoples song parts and put them together into your own creations. sounds like some backwards form of remixing to me, where you pay the artist to get their original sequences and wavs or whatever, rather than the artist paying you, for your remix... :conf: |

Why wouldn't I? The diversity of sounds you'd be able to create in live sets would be a hell of a lot more unique than the majority of Intro/Outro mixing you hear going on now, and it would genuinely let the "DJ" do a lot more than just playing other peoples records.
It's not like this is something I just came up with - Hawtin has bat the idea around in interviews for a while now. |

| delobbo |
| so you mean like, Ableton. |
|
|
| RJT |
Yes, I thought it was rather obvious that's exactly what I was talking about, but rather than having to edit everything from the original WAV, artists would release a track + a large collection of parts and samples.
I'd pay a load more for something like that than I would for an MP3. |

| I read it like you wanted to create new tracks (replacing the tracks you buy), from the pieces. |
