    Default Dj formats -Vinyl-Cd-Computers does it really matter???

    I know this has probably been posted before but i've just moved fro using decks to the might Ableton live & im getting some stick for it.
    Now their will always be your vinyl purists & you cd people & suckers for technology like me but does it really matter what format a dj is spinning tunes on as long as their good??
    I think that when you us cd or a computer you can do so much more & bring an extra dimention to the dancefloor you can,t with vinyl but i always think that vinyl with have a better sound each has their own different thing but what do you lot think??

    Yeah. This has been done to death.

    I'll say only one thing about using Abelton.

    Please for everyones sake only ever play 320kbs/FLAC or WAV.

    i know a guy who plays from final scratch
    he normalizes everything he downloads from slsk
    mostly 128s

    actually
    a lot of people do that in serbia
    especially progressive house djs
    So. Behind their eyes the hope in them was sickening, and in many, dead. They lived from event to event with a subtle terror of the gap between, filling up their lives with distractions to avoid the emptiness where curiosity should have been, and breathing a gasp of relief when the children passed the point of asking questions about what life was for.

    thread topics i hope never to see again:

    DJing vs. Ableton
    Vinyl vs. Mp3/whatever
    Is Jeff Mills/Richie Hawtin god or does he totally suck?

    but i seem to be a minority in this, judging from these topics' enduring popularity

    Do whatever you want. If you enjoy it, and if others enjoy listening to you, thats all there is.

    ermm, who cares? 'djing' (its like hoover or biro now isnt it?) is about getting people to dance to music. I dont care if your using musical christmas cards reprogrammed to play mad cows on acid, if people enjoy it, then its good. like heroin i guess.....
