Re: what is a good controller for,traktor pro and ableton??
i like the vcm-600 from vestax. if you're used to mix on a hardware dj-mixer this one comes closest to it.

Re: Why should I use Live 8 on stage?
hi, i don't know if it works for a laptop as well, but for compensating the bass feedback turntables suffer from i tried so much things but in the end it turned out that the best thing is .. to cut squash balls in half and place the 4 turntable feet on 4 of those half squash balls. all feedback gone...

Re: quick message about disappointment
hey sdfak1234, i'm not gonna blame anything of your setup. even more because at that time you already mentioned that most things were fine with the current beta version. i just wanted to know. seemed slightly like if you had something to hide as well. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. such probl...

Re: quick message about disappointment
hi sdfak1234, what really makes me wonder is why you didn't tell us the details of your setup yet. all the other Live users could benefit from this information. but if it's all the same to you by now why do you keep on making posts about it? i'd really be interested in your hard and software setup. ...

Re: ever try writing songs on a small PA as apposed to monitors?
a friend of mine (dj, producer and label owner) told me a little PA is essential for comparing own productions to other high quality productions and to have a more club like sound. his mons are Genelec 8240. he own's a HK Audio but said right now he would get a 'LD Systems Dave' 10 (444€) or 12 (659...

Re: [IYO] Is there a right or wrong way to 'DJ' with Live?
^ someone has too much money!!! how do you use all 3 monomes? i see the 256 has it's own program, but the 128 and 64 seem to be launching clips from Live??? hey McQ714, the ui of the app displayed on the righthand monitor is called 64pinkies (by Dovemouse) and is controlled by the 64. 64pinkies bas...

Re: [IYO] Is there a right or wrong way to 'DJ' with Live?
I have been building a new template since getting the VCM600 ... hey alex, cool to see someone that has a vcm-600 (and writes about it). i love mine as well and did a lot of customizing with bome's midi translator. best controller to perform if you were used to use a traditional dj mixer. btw, here...

Re: [vid] very interesting indeed :))
"ear not gear" absolutely. it all boils down to this. and about song structure (of club tracks) .. if you are or were a (good) dj or even if you're really into the music when dancing to it .. then this souldn't be a problem. you just feel when certain events need to happen. for me it all s...

Re: midi controller for djing in live
hey Lolly,
i like my vcm-600. it feels like a real mixer as well. it's of very good build quality compared to others. i just took a snapshot of my current setup. you can see it in this thread about a similar topic: http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=121223
peace

Re: Session Drums, does anyone understand them?
it would be very interesting what procedure Ableton officially recommends for this. the hotswap isn't working properly (at least for SD or LP). the manual misses detailed information and examples on how to build your own drum kit (e.g. with SessionDrums or LatinPercussion). so Ableton, what do you r...

Re: DJ with Turntables or Controllers for gigs?
I did this manually in my BCR, just set the buttons onto momentary and it worked like a dream :) it's cool to have some kind of configuration software for a controller :) vcm-600 leaves you alone in this respect and just sends out and receives midi note and cc data in a predefined way. but it's sim...

Jeezus monomes. You gonna get one of the old 40s to complement that setup? =D i once wanted to buy a 40h kit but i wasn't fast enouhg ordering ;) BCR2000 is the way forward on that one, I have mine mapped to the EQs on the first 4 channels that I use for clips, and the second set of knobs set to va...
