Yeah, this is hot!

This is a hot song!!

Yeah you right they need to close it, but dude?!?! So what if he wants his DVS to calc his BPMs? Hell, why not? If its accurate. I understand your passion, but I feel the same way about people driving automatic transmission vehicles. I feel that if thats all you know how to steer, then you dont know how to drive. If you have never had to come to a stop at a red light on a hill with a 30 degree or high incline, and have a smooth take off, then you just a car steerer. You might as well, take mass transit, since the car is doing everything for you. See the correlation? By letting the DVS do some of the menial work, it allows a DJ to be more creative, instead of tapping out beats, he could add some effects, do some loops, blend more songs in and out. Just do more then the next guy with the 2 Cd or vinyl decks can. So, yes, lets close this thread, because like it or not, DVS is the future just like the vinyl guys hated on CD guys back in the 90s.

Hmmm, sounds like you afraid of change or something. I wasnt gonna speak on this, but I felt it was needed. A DJ isnt a DJ because of his technical abilities, I have been to some clubs and heard the DJ cutting and scratching, but at a dance club, it really interferes with the reason people came and thats to dance. Scratch DJs are good and scratching, but to me a real DJ is someone who knows how to keep the people dancing, playing music they want to hear, blending it in with another song with no dead air and them not missing a beat or step on the dance floor. Thats how I rate DJs. If I hear 2 or 3 raggedy segues, I am ready to go. I mean, when I started, you didnt slam records like they do now, music had to flow the DJ took the people on a smooth ride, you start em slow, build them up, bring them down a lil, build them up a lil more, bring em down a lil build them up to a crescendo and turn the lights on cuz its closing time. But that was in the late 80s and early 90s, so maybe they dont do things like that no more. Maybe the new DJs have gotten tired of taking 4-5 coffins of music to a gig, just to make sure you got everything because you dont know what the crowd gonna be like. I dont know if some of yall are old enuff to remember this was the same argument that vinyl DJs used against CD DJs. That CDs sounded to digital, that it was to clear, yet they playing music in a crowded room with multiple conversations going on and no one is really in the sweet spot for optimal stereo imaging. So, my point is this, right now most music is made on a computer, its digital, so spinning vinyl, CDs, DVS, or Ipods for that matter, it really doesnt matter. If your crowd is enjoying what you are doing, and you are having fun doing it, what difference does it make what you use? BTW, I have an Xponent running at 128 samples, I use Torq and Virtual DJ, have played around with Traktor and Decadance. I like VDJ the best because I can use it for music and karaoke gigs.

Hmmm, no one even mentioned ground loop. OP, have you checked to see if you get the hum when you run ya laptop off battery only?

I heard this song last week heading to Florida, Cant wait to play it Sat night!!!
