hey,
well for starters, this is prob the most awesome site/forum ive ever seen. the amount of help and knowledge u guys freely give. ive never seen anything like it. being around musicians my whole life...well they usually dont want anyone to know how they did something or got a certain sound.
(a lil background so u understand where im coming from)
ive been in bands since i was 15 in some capacity. i am a guitarist but have always had a love of synth in all its forms(trance,house,industrial...etc..).
i have a macbook, microkorg, boss dr-660, and a presonus firestudio. ive been using this setup for recording but now im moving into a dj direction. ive have been POURING over info for about 6 months, trying to figure out not only want i want to do but what is the best gear to use.
ive also talked to every dj(that isnt a douche waffle) in the area. most of them are just "dj's" that play songs or requests. i want to mash buttons and twist shit!! i digress
im going with the s2 and traktor, price is good ad seems like a pretty safe bet.
the questions i have are:
1) how different are dj headphones vr studio headphones. i currently use a set of presonus i got from a friend.
2)is there anyway to use either the microkorg or dr660 for midi control in tractor. if not cool. its more just to have extra stuff on stage to look cool. ;) kinda like, i only need this combo amp with 2 12s.... but i have 2 full stacks
thnx
