Which one do you guys do/prefer?
Both. I often use sync when I'm using a lot of loops, remix decks and the loop recorder. But often I like to play sounds technically off beat, but quite abstract so they have no definite down beat and thus have some flexibility in placement. There's no visual or physical aid that can do that, it is literally all down to how your ears perceive the sound.
Also, prepare to witness a playground fight, the likes of which you have never witnessed before.

CLUB OF JACKS - RELEASES >>TRAXSOURCE
Club of Jacks are a London based House & Garage production / DJ duo with releases on a number of underground labels including Plastik People Recordings, Blockhead Recordings, Hi Energy!, Pocket Jacks Trax, Soul Revolution Records and their own Club of Jacks imprint.
When playing with the DDJ-T1 sync, when using CDJ's beatmatch.
- Do you use sync ?
- Do you beatmatch ?
- Can you beatmatch ?
Oh and both
I ticked 'Sync' as I use it now. For my first 15 years of mixing I used the 'Beatmatch' function.
Edit: I use TempoSync as I don't bother to grid my tracks.

Both. When I'm layering techno and using 3-4 decks i use sync. But when I'm at a friend's house and they have CDJ'S I just beatmatch on those.

I'm with sambo with this, if its quick mixing and loop ill tap the sync button to tempo sync my new loaded track so I don't have to manually adjust the pitch fader on my 1210s
If its long blending and mixing the good old fashioned way
Technics 1210 mk2 Pair, Pioneer DJM600, Traktor Kontrol x1, NI Audio 6, NI Maschine Mikro MK2, MacBook 2009, iPad 2 with Traktor DJ, Pioneer HDJ-500, Shure M447's
Mostly using MIDI learn button lately. Sync and controllerism. Beatmatch when classic DJ mix.
