By the way, I like it.....would make for a fun intro.

I'd appreciate the Set if you are sharing it........I like the tone of that girl's voice in the sample.

It's a rip in so much as I straight up ripped the archangel beat pattern.

I'll post the remix set a bit later.

Can you imagine if the first CDJ was £200?

I think it gets its expensive if you want multiples.

I suppose £800 is a bit ridiculous if you want to run 4. But who would honestly want to do that? It would be just like Dance eJay with a controller! Haha

No more dance ejay than using a novation launch pad or apc40

I get where your coming from... But they don't have rainbows. The rainbows are what sold the F1 to the majority, definitely.

The "rainbows" are very helpful in creating divisions between groups of sounds. In some cases I may have a collection of beat pattern loops, breaks etc from one track which I lay out down the first column, coloring them all yellow (for instance). I may use bright yellow for some, darker yellow for others depending on how I want to organize it. I might then start laying down more beats from another track and use a contrasting colour to create a clear delineation between the two groups.
