not if ableton could be synced to final scratch, and you could swtich the decks to control various channels, then when a channel is running how you want it, then switch the deck to control another channel and so on. Man, that would be pretty cool.
There is a time to go barmy on the decks, and a time to let tunes just ride out.
A good DJ takes all the skills and does the best thing at the right time.

i think there is something quite similar (but it makes use of the miss pinky vinyls):



Ms Pinky's "Pinky Pluggo" plugin allows users of VST, AudioUnit, and RTAS-compatible host programs running under both OSX and WinXP to seamlessly integrate Ms Pinky's vinyl-controlled audio file playback and scratching into music production software sessions... for the purposes of studio recording, or for live performance. Supported file types are WAV, AIFF, and MP3.

Based on the popular Pluggo technology from Cycling-'74, "Pinky Pluggo" is free to members of Ms Pinky's Fan Club, and does not require the purchase of Pluggo in order to run. Users can simply download and install the free runtime version of Pluggo from cycling74.com to begin using "Pinky Pluggo".
