the djm707 and djm 909 had a play with the 909 on sunday and it is amazing the curve for the cross fader is changeable for each side meaning you can customise it to your hearts content for scratching etc it also has a touch screen effects unit that you use the normal channel faders to control after selecting it its been designed with the scratch perverts as well not used or seen the 707 except in pictures, but it is bascially the same without all the extra features like the FX unit

I'm thinking of getting one of these Pioneer CDJs. There's quite a big price hike from the 800 to the 1000, but I'm not convinced I need all the extra features. I'm not bothered about about looping, digital outputs, memory cards etc... I tried out both models in a shop last night and was very pleasantly surprised by how similar it is to manipulating vinyl. I read somewhere that the 800 is not so good for scratching, is this true? They both had a very similar feel to me. I know I'm a bit behind the times here, but having finally got round to trying out these CDJs with the scratch jog wheels, I'm blown away by how easy it is to cue up the tracks, and how fun …

a few basic questions (forgive me if its confusing, i dont know the jargon so i've stumbled though with what jargon i do know): 1) i have an 8 beat patten and i want it 1 set of fx on it in the 1st few loops, then another set of fx for another few loops. is it possible to do this w/o having to duplicate the patten each time i want a different filter on it. i've looked to see if you can set one off fx sends at set time frames, but nothing jumped out at me. 2) i want to post the higher frequences on samples. is there some kind of fx plug in that i can use? i'm guessing what i need is a 'hi-pass filter'? 3) can i set pattens to fade in/out easily? basical…

Just been reading the latest one with Justin Bourne, who is a wicked DJ I might add ! Just wana say ALL the interviews you have done so far are top stuff mate, and is looking good for and on the site. If you need any extra help / questions to be added for any interviews, I would love to participate and help rack some up depending on what DJ it is ! I am a bit gutted Glazby refused to take the time to take part though But anyway - good work as always mate. And all the best for showing your talent in Poland. Show 'em how it's done !

During the Build up to the Hard House Academy at the Brixton Academy, Clubtheworld caught up with one of Londons Hardest female DJ’s. We asked Lucy Fur the following questions: CTW - How long have you been mixing for and could you describe to us a brief history of how you got to where you are in your DJ career? LUCY - I started buy records around july 2000, and my decks shortly followed. I then got addicted to mixing and continued to practise for a year. I played my first gig in a pub in Hertfordshire to about 20 people and loved it!!! I then went on to get my first residency at Exessential in Lydd where funnily enough I experienced my first all-nighter ex…
