Hey people. This is my first post.
By the way, i don't have tons of cash and i get by with what i have.
And i get by pretty good compared to some CDJ users (Not that i'm hatin' on you)
Oh yeah and i'm french so my english might not be super-duper.
PLEASE DON'T DISRESPECT THE SPEAKERS. I KNOW THERE CHEAP, BUT THEY WORK AND I CAN'T AFFORD ANYTHING ELSE.
I'll get some more pix soon, but i just wiped my HD so i lost all me photos
History:
So i was playing dj hero and one of my mates houses and i was like. I'm gonna check out this Dj'ing stuff. So i went online and searched google etc... I finally decided on a Hercules MP3e2 cause' i had about 99 euros to spend, and it was at 69euros. I thought i can either get creative and do something or buy another years xbox subscription and waste my life.
So i used VDJ pro for about 5 months with a cheap 3 euro soundcard that worked well with VDJ. Then i decided to move to traktor. My soundcard wouldn't work because Traktor would keep skipping and popping and glitching and crashing and stuff. I played around with the ASIO4ALL settings a bit and it didn't work, so i ended up kind of freestyling with no headphones :eek:
Since then i had gotten into music production with ableton (Dub reggae, Dubstep, Trip-hop) so when christmas came around i got me an APC40. Set it up with traktor and bought another cheap soundcard for traktor (Since i still can't afford a proper one) good news though, if i put Gamebooster on Traktor and plug both soundcards in, the sound doesn't glitch.
But still, setting it up was a pain, so i decided to DJ with ableton, and i still am, until i get enough money to buy a soundcard.
Oh yeah, and if you're wondering why i can never afford anything it's because i'm 14. And in france it's illegal for me to get a job, like even paper rounds don't exist here
Can't wait to get a proper soundcard though, Dj'ing with ableton is tons of fun, but it kind of makes me feel like a SYNC button DJ. Also the stickers on the Hercules are kind of random, one of my mate stuck them on while i wasn't looking, now i can't get them off with out it looking worse
