I have the vhf tape! :)

[ziggytrix]

all you guys hating on cdjs got it wrong.

i never got any good with them myself, but it's misguided to knock someone just for using a cdj or a ns7 or whatever if they can scratch as good as the next guy does on 12s. i know guys who can use either, and one of my friends even told me that when it's hot and humid he actually prefers the cdj to the turntable, but maybe that's more of a problem down here in the south.

cdjs have come a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG way since 2002

[ItalianxPolishxKid]

i Just Met Rob Swift today and he told me im good at beat syncing by ear today at scratch Dj Acadamy in NYC

[mrslideinsideu2]

I miss doing this shit, These new fangled cats using these cd turntables are lame. More control with vinyl

[morgman43]

Hip Hop DJs don't get enough respect outside the underground community any more. They're almost always considerably more technically capable, and often more cerebral, than their MC/rapper counterparts...

[juicebrad]

@morgman43 verywell said

[moog8008]

[emohawk]

i can't believe i stopped learning this stuff for my career,..so addictive. Spent hours and hours, trying to learn this stuff. The moral of the story is, Keep on trucking.

[thatoldgeezer]

whats the best stylus/cartridge for scratching

[DoktorRoki]

He is profesional. It's sound perfeckt. I gotta lern this !

[bow2urepnoy]

ahhaha. my friend let me borrow this vhs. but i never gave it back

[genesis73]

I want to get into DJ'ing and

i noticed, a lot of the cooler beat juggles i've seen on youtube have the same song on both sides. So Im just wondering, how often do you guys buy two of the same vinyl?

also, is there other ways to mix or is it strictly records, for example, if I wanted to mix something newer, would I have to find on in vinyl or whats the best way?

What's the best turntable for beat juggling?

[Bigz568]

Man, you can go into any genre and beat juggle. . . .but it's alway's 2 of the same record. Sometimes it's just not enough. . .

as for mixing. . .you can still do this with any DVS (Digital Vinyl System) that can manipulate the mp3's like a regular record (Serato, Tracktor, Torq)

AS for gear, you can never go wrong with Tech 1200's. . .but some newmarks are out there that can handle the stress. . .

hope that helps or whatever. . .or I'm talking outta my ass!

[genesis73]

thanks man

i ended up getting the VCI 300, and its a lot of fun.

So far i see that I have a long way to go before doing any advanced beat juggling. Right now im just working on the scratching

[Bigz568]

No worries man. . . .

I started Djing AFTER high school, and the people that I used to know that started in high school are HEAVY in the scene now. . . .VCI-300 is a great starter for serato or whatever DVS you use. But when you get into some loot, look into the heavy duty shit (the Numark NS7) I'll stick with vinyl and 12's for that amount of loot.

Just keep grinidn man. Wealth is not a substitute for passion. And things have a way of falling into place.

[alfonso704]

just get Serato Scratch live

[chrisrap4ever]

i think the best is mk2 from technics.this shit is immortal...

[bow2urepnoy]

lotta people converted to electronic vinyls like serato scratch. it uses a artificial vinyls and a box connected to a laptop and puts an mp3 to the vinyl

[sownds08]

You can actually buy a used pair of technics 1200's for around $500. Serato is a great tool for any dj and will save you tons of money on music. I recommend that you start out with vinyl because you will learn how delicate needles can be. I taught my brother in law hoe to dj on cd turntables and now he's no good on vinyl. Learning on vinyl will give you an advantage skill wise over the dj's who start out with the newer technology. Just remember to practice practice practice. Good luck!

[LONGBROCCOLI]

Shure 101 is the best video for learning to juggle

[fabalust1]

It's hard to explain how to do something that comes naturally.
