    Default Big name DJs who switched to controllers?

    Hey, I'm writing an essay on digital DJing vs traditional DJing and I need some examples of big name DJs who switched from tables to some sort of controllers. Any suggestions?

    Cheers, Misha

    Also are there any clubs which cater specifically to digital DJS/Controllerists?

    Sasha, Pete Tong.

    Most big club/festival venues now have the CDJ2000's that can jump between CDJ and controllers.

    Give this a read, it may help with your essay, good luck.....
