| ah - why the change? just the ease of being able to bring your entire library in a compact package? |

Yeah, that and I have a nice laptop now so its like, why not?
I've been playing with it for a few months now just plugging my hard drive into other people's setups, and it just makes everything easier.
Played for 6+ hours at afters with it, so nice to have all my music in one place. |

Questions:
As I understand it you brought your laptop (with Traktor Scratch Pro and your music) and plugged into the clubs mixer. Was another interface needed?
Can you recommend a small, portable mixer that is easy to travel with and can plug directly into a sound system?
Thanks. |

With Traktor you just need CDJs/turntables and your laptop, purchasing Traktor Scratch gets you the control cds/vinyl and the Audio8 DJ box.
Basically what you do is plug your laptop into the box, the CDJs/turntables into these splitter type cords and those go into both the box and the mixer. You don't need a special kind of mixer to use it.

If you want to use Traktor Pro (which means no CDJ/vinyl control) you'd need to get some kind of MIDI based controller to plug into your laptop then back into the mixer.

That diagram is a little harder to read, but basically it's saying you don't need CDJs/turntables to control the software, you can do it with a MIDI controller of some kind. |

trance:D
Clovis doesn't really define the stuff he plays nor listens to.
i'd personally call it techno. plain and simple. |

Its probably difficult to nail down since there are tracks from several styles. A sign of a good mix imo. |
