Yo. Well, does anybody know how the varous part of the big desk are connected?
For example, in THIS clip, Sasha using his mixer with Ableton and Maven mixing up effects or tracks, and John play in a "classic" mode with cdj and an Allen & Heat mixer.
The question is:
How to connect together this two different apparatuses to have the result that John & Sasha have?
Thank you, ;) |

Imo, absolutely not.

I play with setups that include me rigging my mixer (which has 4 stereo inputs from a sound card/ableton) into another mixer which is connected to CDJ'S.
I just have my mixers output going into one of the channel inputs on the other mixer, it's that simple. |

Yes, that's simple but if sasha (for example) wanna put an effect (echo or other) to a track that digweed is playing, with this simple connection you can't do it!
Maybe, an exit from John's mixer enter in the Sasha's one, Live catches the tempo and now you have both apparatuses working. |

I didn't realise you were looking to add Ableton effects to a CDJ channel. That would involve routing the CDJ audio into Ableton and then back out again. |

So, with the simple connection you have, you have to pitch manually a track in Live, if you wanna mix it with an other playing on cdj.
What do you do to start it at the right moment like a cdj does? And to pitch it? I'm sorry man but something doesn't work in my mental setup :tongue2 |

In Ableton, to start the track at the right "moment" I turn the quantisation off, so it starts as soon as I hit play, or whatever controller I'm using. Then I use the nudge functions to keep the track from going all Tiesto. I use this process, along with changing the BPM, to beat match as well. |

| A friend of mine once did a Back2back, where he was using Ableton and the other one Vinyl. He had some special device that allowed him to pitch bend in Ableton. I could ask him what the name of that device was (totally forgot) in case you're interested |

I meant I use the Nudge functions to slightly speed up or slow down the track to keep it in time with the CDJ. |
