From their website "...FinalScratch 2. This complete package lets you play digital music files from any analog turntable or CD player..." from A.N. Other msg board (posts not from me)... **** Originally posted by Dj Spiel >Man, I am still confused. WHat does Finalscratch really do? > >It let's you mix on a Computer? With mp3's? It lets you mix digital files (MP3, WAVs, AIFFs etc) using turntables. You get special vinyls with it when you buy which makes it possible for finalscratch to determine where on the vinyl you're playing and hence play MP3s just as you would play vinyl. Anything you can do with vinyl you should be…

It's bloody expensive but I'm giving some serious thought to buying one of these. My old mixer is playing up a bit, and besides I've fancied moving up to a 3- or 4-channel mixer for a while now. The specs all look great on paper (4 channels, aux sends, assignable crossfader -- basically everything I'm looking for) and I've read that the build quality is excellent. Plus the filters are a bonus. My only gripe at this stage is a superficial one -- it could look a bit cooler! Any comments? Has anybody used one before? Can anybody suggest a cheaper alternative with similar specs? The other main contender was the Ecler SMAC Pro 40 -- fewer bells and whi…

Hi everyone. At Afterlife we have currently had to stop accepting demo's due to the ridiculous waiting list we have for sets. (currently 1-2 years) This however means that we miss out on some of the new talent that's out there and we don't think that's fair. We've always tried to give as many talented unknown DJs the chance to play out as possible, So we've come up with a way of you jumping the queue and getting yourself the chance to play at the world famous Mass club in Brixton! Each month, the DJ who submits the best demo will get the chance to come and perform that demo at Afterlife in the live room! The Mass sound system is the kind of setup that many DJs…

anyone know any good places to get sample from. or where do you get your sample from for making parts of tunes etc. does anyone actually take samples from vinyl as i've got loads i could use, but would the sounds quality be good enough. as you can tell i know fook all about this, but i'm sure i'll have fun learning (expect loads of stupid/obvious questions over the next few months guys )

Dave Clarke Press release: The Move from Vinyl to CD After some time (I wanted to move to CD in 1997) I have finally got a machine that i believe is sonically and technically up to the job of replacing the hallowed and much loved 1210. I was originally asked to demo the Technics CD deck in New York at the beginning of the year but i didn’t have the space in my calendar, however after finally getting my hands on one I have concluded that I will now switch over to cd’s in the short term, this will take some time and allow me to road test the machine in clubs. Initially I will bring my own, but would appreciate any promoters t…

Is this any good? I might buy it. You can use it with Reason 2.5 to give you two more synths and a new drum machine I think.

right ive just got both programs and for the life of me i cant figure out how to sequence the reason channels seperately. eg. when i put redrum1 assigned to midi channel 1 the whole lot comes through rather than just the kick ive tried using 2 drum machines and the same happens! also the actual sequencing does nt seem to work because it just keeps on playing continously, im obviously doin somat wrong but i havent the foggiest what can anyone shed any light on it?

can't even load up the main desktop anymore. basically i've been told by the helpline to take it back and exchange it for a new one. so being me, i didn't back up any files (which i can't even access now), so i've lost the last 4 weeks work on it. all my samples i'd cut from tunes and vinyl (spent hours doing that too) was just starting to get somewhere with my first tune attempt too (30 hours work went into that) what a bastard hey

now i sware its not me being crap at mastering (although i dont doubt that i am crap at it) but when im working on a tune in fruity and preview a track it sounds as i want it. the kicks are punchy, the percussion is crisp and no sound is drowning out any other sound (or not so i can notice anyway) now my problem is when i export it. the percussion distorts, the kicks loose their punch and sounds get drowned out. i cant work this out. even playing the exported WAV and/or MP3 on my computer it sounds shit even though it sounds ok in fruity on the same machine does anyone know why this is happening and/or how to fix it?

Since Ian showed me how to work a midi vsti , when ever i make a rift and fill a pattern, this seems to blow the CPU through the roof. At times i was running 54 patterns at once and tyhe cpu didn't ever go past 4 or 5. but with just once midi channel running it takes it over 80 and fruity sometimes overloads and the sound jumps/skips.......help i was thinking to copy this mid i channel as a wav and re load it back in, would this solve the problem, as i haven't tried it yet. i hope so as looks like i can only run 1 midi channel per track at the moment

Eek - wasnt really sure where to post this as this guy isnt a member ... My flatmate D@ Pander has had 2 of these mixes going this morning from this site - SUPERB, probably some of the best Funky House I've heard for a while; (since Garlands) http://www.thehyperintelligentslug.co.uk/main.shtml Tell you what though I'm well confused on the legal status of all these, my mate is going to put all his mix CDs online as well and now I'm wondering if we should just say 'fook it' and do it here as well ????

a little birdy tells me that CTW is now working for Frantic. If this brings extra exposure to the site then it sounds like a bloody good idea (although it would be nice to see a greater push in non-hardhouse directions, but thats as much my fault as anyone elses) basically because of this i am informed that there are some things we can not say about some DJs. Just so i'm clear on the matter, what can we say w/o getting are wrists slapped?

I was recommended to use this for creating loops by a dj, as he said it's very easy to get going on. which sounded great for me as i've only just started to look at production. When looking at it for the first time it seems identical to "sonic foundry (video vegas)", which is great for me as i know how to use video vegas quiet well. does anyone know what the differences are between the 2 thou, other than not being able to edit video in acid pro. cheers
