I think I’ll always prefer vinyl but I would no longer argue that it’s better than CD’s. The few benefits it has over CD and digital is that it has more of a face… a connection if you will. CD’s tend to be faceless and souless to look at and connect with. Vinyl feels better to use as it’s very hands on, plus the collector element is there.
Otherwise CD and digital wins pretty much every other way provided you use a lossless data format like WAV.
Cheaper
Lighter
Smaller
Superior sound quality
Abilty to burn another if a tune gets scratched
Abilty to play your own tunes straight away
Ability to play friends tunes
Limitless supply of a release (I sometimes see that as a downside though)
More scope for being creative
+many other benefitsPeople may not want to admit it but vinyl is now for collectors, purists, romantics and people who refuse to move on (like me!)
…oh unless you plan to be a turntablist… then it’s vinyl all the way without question.
sounds like CDJ’ing is the way to go for me then.so now, what CDJ’s would you recommend for me considering im totally new to it?
Any thoughts on Death_Blooms suggestion? *(thanks for that btw death :wink:)
and um, not to sound like an idiot but whats a turntablist compared to normal djing?
welcome to PV man :love: nice photo too
well im not really sure tbh.i guess if things are going towards CDJ’s these days then that would be the sensible choice, but if they are more expensive then that might make vinly the better choice.im into psytrance,breaks,trance,electro,prog,acid techno…so quite a lot of shit really.what are the pro’s and con’s of each type of dj’ing?
cheers daesin and digi for the input.helps to know of other peoples successes when starting from scratch (excuse the pun).any guidance as to what i should be looking at buying?CDJ’s, vinly…brands etc?had a look on ebay and it looks as though il be spending around the £500 mark if im wanting something half decent
bumping this thread as I’m now seriously considering getting some form of dj’ing equipment.basically i know nothing about ti and don’t really know any dj’s yet that i can get to help me learn so its going to have to be a DIY jobby.so how much am i looking at having to spend?i’d rather buy some ones that are decent and going to last rather than buying shitty things and having to fork out more down the line…if theres a line.also, should i be looking at vinyl or cd’s these days?space could be an issue as well since im moving into halls of residence :/
i basically need a “DJ’ing for Dummies” guide :p
oh and a question to those who started out with no knowledge and no guidance…how’d you manage it?
and when did the DJ’s out there start DJ’ing?i always get this horrible feeling about this type of thing that I’m strarting out too late and so theres no point, hence me never actually doing anything with my life these days :/
go go go :group_hug
just GASHfestival beginning of this month.not heard of any free parties round my area 😥
