      Serato doesn't have a lot of the editing options with it tho does it? since it doesn't have Traktor with it like FS does?

        As far as digital versus vinyl goes, I have come to this settlement... the platform of media will depend on genre... i.e. house will be bought as vinyl and techno on CDRs (digital downloads). For some reason this all makes sense in my head.

        Oh, and I can't wait for Traktor DJ Studio 3 in November

          Man.... I agree that buying vinyl is very expensive... thats the reason why stopped doing it myself. But it IS indeed sad that vinyl will soon disappear.. there's nothing like the good ole vinyl feeling...

            Ideally I guess no mattter what format, if you can't program a set, your not worth much, even if you can beatmatch on vinyl..........however, I kind of feel that the ability to work with vinyl/cd does set the dj apart from the random clubber in the club, where as with a program like Ableton or Traktor, it doesn't take that much to beatmatch or complie a set. However I guess if someone can be extremely creative with what they do with those programs, then there will be a separation.........I dunno, just babbling

                  To my knowledge, Serato is just a turntable emulator, like final scratch without Traktor. Traktor adds a whole different aspect to your djing, editing, cue points, looping, fx, etc, which FS has and Serato doesn't <at least i didn't think Rane had anything like that. It's just supposed to be more stable. (I think Serato looks like ass compared to the FS interface tho.)

                          Well I'm still buying vinyl. and I think it's mainly because I dont own any CDJ's. Haven't looked into it (price, type, bands, etc).

                          What you all recomend? Until I get my hands on some of those, I'll still be buying vinyl, .. my Juno Whishlist is about 4 pages long! D'oh!

                            I view it this way: There was a point in which only things could be learned on vinyl and there were only things that cd's could do.

                            But with the advent of the active matrix platter on most cd players now. The cd turntable has turned into some beast of its own nature.

                            And to answer your questions burn one: CDJ-1000 or CDJ-800... Google it and you can find a wealth of information on them.
                            The sailors of the United States Navy are among the most disciplined, devoted, and well-trained fighting men the world has ever known. They drink gasoline and piss fire, The spit bullets and shit bombs, and will swim across the ocean with a knife in their teeth just for the chance to carve up those that threaten their homeland.

                              cdj200 is fine. half the price. i have two cd players at home, and the club i play has 1000s, and i still play about 80% records. I've gotten to the point where the track has to be REALLY good for me to buy it on beatport. Otherwise, i'm buying records that aren't available digitally.

                                It seems a lot of the good tracks are only available on record.
                                A lot of the tech house labels seem to be doing well with
                                this electro/tech phase in the dance scene. Of course, big time
                                tracks will get the push into the digi realm, just to push sales.
                                Still have no problem finding more records than I can afford.
                                So don't ditch those decks yet, just try to find some of those
                                obscure tracks people on the digi sites seem so readily to pass up.
                                Good Example: Mashtronic

                                So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

                                1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
                                2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
                                3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
                                4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

                                Am I close here?
