    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.

    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

    Mostly using MIDI learn button lately. Sync and controllerism. Beatmatch when classic DJ mix.
