    Eh? Please explain.

    Why would you need Traktor if you have Ableton?

    because, like with ms pinky, you can still play decks with your real vinyl and mp3s (using the coded vinyl) and add your own loops over it and midi files. aswell as being able to take advantge of vst fx.

    the possiblities for a dj are enormous - im definitly gonna look into this myself - i tried ms pinky and it was amazing, just too buggy to use live.

    keep us updated jay

    In a nutshell - it gives you more perfomance options.

    You can play 2-3 hours switching between live, dj, a mix of both.

    More options = good.

    I see. Traktor Scratch is a bit out of my price range at the moment.

    Just my view obviously...

    Having made the jump to Ableton, I don't know why you'd want to complicate things with vinyl. If you're doing an Ableton set and you have time to mix in records then you're not doing enough live stuff.

    Yes, of course, it's the sound that matters, most of the crowd don't give a shit, blah blah blah usual anti-chinstroking rant, yawn etc. But embracing technology means just that. If you're just using Ableton to replace record decks then you're missing a trick.

    How can I beat Richie Hawtin in a minimal standoff using only my MacBook and a handful of FLAC Dubstep tunes?

    Stand perfectly still and stare at his haircut.

    Less is more, he'll appreciate that better than most.

    Actually, you can check your gmail ;) and then show me how to effectively use my Ableton.

    This will involve physical interaction and Cyder/Gin

    He's probably envious of your Mantis download stats.
