Fuck this. I'm going to go enjoy a warm bowl of oatmeal.

:] No I have never used it. I just want a cheap way to mix Vinyl and MP3's.

Wait a second, I totally spoke out of line. Ms Pinky is fantastic! If you want to buy my 4 vinyls and liscense I'll sell em to you for 80 bucks. You'll LOVE IT!!!

Would I invest a reasonable amount of money for a plug-in that adds some DJ software specific functionality to Live natively? Mmmmmmaybe.JuanSOLO wrote:beats me wrote:This is fantastic news for Traktor users. You made the right investment.
You might be right. After learning some M4L and continuing to use Traktor routed to Ableton, I am not so anxious about the Serato Partnership. If I was a kick ass scratch DJ I may think otherwise, but at the moment I am content with Traktor, Live & M4L.
Well hopfully you were not expecting to get Vinyl Control after spending all that. kidding.marcoskohler wrote::] No I have never used it. I just want a cheap way to mix Vinyl and MP3's.

(Approximate prices)
Live Suite - $700
2 Turntables - $600
Mixer - $400
Interface - $300
= Still no way to mix mp3's as if they were/with vinyl...
Ms. Pinky is < $100, whereas investing in Serato will cost you $600... I never knew musicians were expected to be so wealthy :'(

Would I invest in DJ specific software that is inferior in many ways to Traktor so I can use session view in it? Fuck no.
yeah i can understand that; i was expecting something more along the lines of traktor 4 deck mixing and on the fly looping and effects, and tempo locked beat matching.. and that would have been very cool...dj wise i only use live to straighten up wonky tempos and then bring them back into serato. i do think though that the intergration that they've given will lead to more in future updates. i mean i've been using serato for a while and it keeps on adding things with 0.x updates for free that really add to its functionality; i'm sure this will continue. and bear in mind that both serato and ableton do listen to their respective user bases..Tarekith wrote:Yeah, seems to be this news really benefits the people already using Serato to DJ with the most. For those of us who've been using Live for DJing, really doesn't add too much. At least not enough for most of us to get all that excited about. A lot of the Serato guys seemed thrilled though.
You're starting to sound like one of those people who go out of their way to bash Apple computers, because deep down inside you know you really want one...beats me wrote: Would I invest in DJ specific software that is inferior in many ways to Traktor so I can use session view in it? Fuck no.
