What % of Ableton DJ's mime?

You did not mention even once mainstream music in the post I quoted. Also, preplanning a top40 set is quite all right, all the songs are pretty much the same and people who go to these clubs are dead drunk anyway. And as already mentioned, Ableton is not used for A->B DJing, so you're just hating on a program just because you can't understand it.

I'm not hating Ableton, like I said I'm going to get one for the production but won't use it for the clubs when the situation changes every hour or minutes. so it's not for regular DJ (if can't switch any songs on the fly as I thought, again sorry if i'm wrong).

I think premade sets are for the important gig (for like huge gig and people know you and the music and came to see you. in the situation you must not fail on performing).

DJ = Disc Jockey.
Producer is producer, they can perform at a club or concert hall. disagree when they call them self a dj.

good example, Armin Van Buuren Producer / DJ. he is the DJ who knows and care about the mood of the crowd. switching right songs based on the mood, on the fly with CDJ using CDs with his own song.

your set doesnt have to be pre made you just need to have warped your tracks before hand...

like you analyse in serato / traktor before hand its called warping in ableton...

in theory you could do this on the fly or you could not warp and manually beat match... (with a little midi mapping)

Again, Ableton does not necessarily mean you have to preplan your sets. FYI, Armin does use Ableton to mix for his podcasts.

or you could get a DVS VST and just mix traditionally (not that i would)

the possibilities are endless in ableton..

I like how the guy that hasn't tried to use Ableton to DJ is trying to argue that it can't be done effectively with the guys who currently use Ableton to DJ effectively.

Seems like it's time to cut your losses, quit arguing, and start believing what the actual Ableton users are telling you.

Armin's Podcasts, Mix release vs Armin's Club or concert live - are different.
This topic started from for the "club".

Okay I will stop from here. Already explained enough and hope you all know my point.

it consumes alot more time but the "output" is same compare to other dj software

If you're right, then why doesn't he use traktor or serato?
