Richie Hawtin about Traktor at WMC 2009

[fordeboi]

The simple fact is though that the younger generation don't even know what 12 inch is. There are two ways to traktor the way I see it either 1 you are fucking useless and cant dj to save your life and just want to dance around like a mong and do silly angel poses or 2. you use the tight syncronisation and all the effects to their full potential as Richie does. Plus the last vinyl record I bought cost me 43 pounds yea and they wonder why people are switching to digital formats.

KEEP VINYL ALIVE.

@HitchHikersBlues its alive....just like the model t ford...looks good...has round wheels!

[HitchHikersBlues]

@DigitalFeeder

I use digital dj software like Traktor and Virtual.

It's great!

But I always got the impression, Dickie Hawtin had a phobia of vinyl.

[vivaelminimal]

imahappy genau so seh ich das auch alle die sagen ehh digital djaying is scheisse und die haben kein plan weil man halt auch damit was raushauen sollte :D

jochen winter

[csontinas]

This program is amazing!!!Much better than any other dj software aaand Hawtin is maybe better than anyone else : )

[imahappy21]

Ich verwende auch traktor und ich muss sagen es ist das geilste ding ever. Natürlich muss man auch diese Sache ausnutzen (loops, effects, 3 or 4 Decks....) denn erst dann wird  es interessant!!!

TRAKTOR ROCKS

[jaimiecurrie]

whos john beck? yeah tractors rock!

[DJAnthonyJacobs]

Been rocking Traktor since day one,,, and remember a day back when I was getting quite a bit of flack from other DJ's for using a laptop in the clubs... "That's not real DJ-ing, blah, blah..." It's so good to finally see the world catch up with this technology and seeing many of the wolrds top DJ's embracing Traktor. The unique mixing possibilities are indeed endless!!!

[DigitalFeeder]

@DJAnthonyJacobs yeah man true!!.... i remember saying mixing with cds on cd players is crap and half ass and being able to cue instantly was cheating...compared to my cool looking original vinyls that took longer to cue!!! ooops i was wrong...after that i treat everything new as a dj beatmatching tool. and yes traktor i found will cook ya fucken breakfast if a tell it :)

[DigitalFeeder]

@DigitalFeeder Also...making a digital track on a pc..then burning it to a disc or pressing to vinyl...and placing it in/on a machine with motors moving parts..buttons...connections..­solder.. wires..more connections...to have a laser or a needle( that was invented years back that wear out your vinyls) to read the infomation back off the disc's.....and play it through the speakers.....all seems like re-inventing the wheel to me.

[bezz10]

i use tracktor for over a year.... and is the best thing i bought for sure !!

[eleven38]

i pray for the day ritch goes back to playin acid house. and not the minimal tap drippin stuff of late :|
