no , this is ridiculous, not all controllers are bad or Verry good , it’s about what u want from it
and all what i look for is QUALITY for god sake
u cant compare a Best Sport car VS a Best Familly carMemberit shouldnt be a rule that says do that or do this
I would plan a set only if i Know VERRY well the 80% of who’s in the crowd as groups , and already knowing their tastes , i can predict what they will want and how to drive them to want this
Try it with ur Best friends and u’l notice
– Or if i’m a superstar and ppl expect a kind of sound of me , wich i’m totally behind this about a 1000 Light years 😛but in a place that i dont know the most of the crowd , i would do a research about the kind of music apreciated by those ppl of that region before i get to play , then i’m make my music selection based on the research and i’l play by reading the crowd
MemberAlix Elder, post: 10858 wrote: Here’s my two cents. Do not organize any more. Drop it completely. You won’t learn how to do it on the fly if you don’t start focusing on that. Next, start playing your songs and listening to the beats, the four beat measures and so on. Don’t label them just listen. Then everywhere you go, if a song is playing start listening for the beats, the bars, ect. until you start doing it subliminally. I’ve always been able to do it, but that’s because I can play four instruments and read music. Now the real fun begins. Music is math, and if you mix your songs in the correct places and in key, it’s easy. You can mix your song in every two full bars, one bar, one 4beat measure and so on, so that the music feels effortless. Set up your cue points so that they fit in with the bars. Again, all very mathematical. I have a hard time describing it due to the fact that I just do it naturally. Music theory applies here as much as DJing does. If you can let your subconscious DJ focus on the bars and beat, then YOU can focus on everything else and spend less time thinking.
i dont think you are dealing with a BIG Collection , are u ?
MemberJay Godin, post: 10898 wrote: CDJ’s and Scratching MP3’s produce the same sounds. They use the same Algorithms to accomplish the effect. If you think that scratching with a controller sounds bad, you might want to look at the bitrate of the track you are trying to use. I only you 320k or higher tracks and I have never had a complaint.
.I think u’r wrong , are u much into scratching ? u used lotta controllers and cdj’s and didnt notice some differneces , theres the Digital sound , theres the latency PRoblemes i mean veryyyy precise problems that u notice only if u scratch good and fast and have lotta techniques and trained ear on scratch sounds ,
ps : for verry simple scratches theres no prob at all , a verry little bit of digital distortion but nobody can hear so its ok
for the sound quality i’m aware of the 320 Kbps loooool ! but i can assure u that not every mp3 written in their tag 320 is really 320 kbps , i can take a music video that has like 96 kbps and drop it in a mp3 converter , set the audio settings to 320 kbps and ther u are with an mp3 320 kbps
is it really ?? but my ear thinks that the audio quality is worse then 96 kbpsin the end , Only a good musical ear can hear differences not numbers written
Memberi’m just getting out from this Trap :rolleyes: , the Overwhelming Libraries 😡
I have a collection trimmed to 17 000 Track for over 800+ Folders
a Great organistation between the genres and Their Main subgenres IS GOOD for yr health 😛What i do for gigs :
– i bring the whole collection with me ( but i have to limit my self to get creative , and the rest for Requests quick search)
– i Choose like 200 to 300 tracks MAX for 4 Hours gig from the Collect
– organizing it 5 – 10 Playlists ( By genres or subgenres , Language , feel or mood , Opener.. wutever )
– Make Cue Points in all of them and label the tags , ratings …etc
– Practice on it a bit , if your not the kind fo Dj that practice everyday , Then u SHOULD PRACTICE HARD A WEEK OR 2 BEFORE THE EVENTi hope that my Little expertise helped 🙂

for me i want trust those jog wheels , too small and it sounds hmmm so digital , and it wouldn’t be so precise in scratching cz it’s too small, but absolutely u can do some great tricks on it like in the video u can go hard on it
btw i own the cdj 900s and its good no digital sounds no milliseconds skipping and its size is good a liiiiitle bit of a vinyl feelThat my opinion , i’m still climbing the music mountain too 😉

MemberGOOD QUESTIONS BRO !
Tell me 1st what type of Dj u are what do u spin and What ur desired direction for your career’s futureMemberThe Best Way i know in this matter is to Record ur Video and Audio in The Same time but separately .
Record the audio with some software like AUDACITY and the visual with ur camera of-course , Then take ur footage and audio Thn sync them in a Video editing software
Its Not that complicated but if you need more specific help Just ask for it 😉MemberSmiTTTen, post: 8993 wrote: If someone can make a name for themselves with “Funtcase” – you can be successful with whatever works for you. Knock ’em dead!

MemberKranic, post: 8950 wrote: Some here basically, as pointed out by the others, it sounds too much like prance/prancing. If you wanted to use it, you could balanced it out by using something silly. Possibly with something that people can relate to/poke fun of like The Lonely Desert Prancer or Pranse Hammam. Or use something that brings in something from your own language, making it into an oxymoron like a fearless coward or a leader without people. (Just some random ideas.)…
What u said is verry helpfull :), i’m not limiting myself into any language i’m the kind of guy whos open to anything
Funny stroy ( The russian small penis hhhhhh :p) and Prance Hammam hhhhhhhhhh i cant wait to tell my friends it’l be a day of prance hammam ,i think u r a kind of person that is cool to hang around 😀
is Kranic the name that u use now ? What do u play or what u do ?i’m thinking about going ahead and do some House partys and stuff , till i gather a good amount of trusty followers , then i’l ask them to give me a name ( throught facebook of course) if didnt come with a name already in that point .
