    Success! I’m now a proud owner of a mixtrack pro 2. Yeah, it is used, but who cares, I love it! I’m gonna practice for a while now.

    Great job! Think the track you sent them sounded so good because of the headphones? LOL

    I am still gonna continue stating that I believe that day with the Riksja driver you set “invisible” events in motion and good things are now “seemingly” falling out of the sky for you. It’s the universe rewarding you 😀

    Thank you all of you!!

    I had stumbled accross Digital DJ Tips while choosing a DAW for me. Phil’s video “Moving into production” had come up on the Youtube panel and I gave it a go. It wasn’t what I was looking for, but it helped quite a bit. I instantly signed up for the free course and came here to the forums!

    I’m so glad I did.

    So, the big event starts in about 15 hours from now. Everything is packed and ready and I’ve gone through all tracks I’ve decided to play.

    I’m a bit nervous, but its reassuring to feel that I’m not alone.

    Wish me luck 🙂

    Failure. Big failure. My gig was postponed to next month. Damn, I was so disappointed.

    With full understanding of and respect for your feeling of disappointment, look at the bright side: it was postponed, not cancelled.

    You’ll get your shot yet.

    Yeah, well maybe I’ll get to play next month… And now I’ll have to pay the shop too.
    🙁

    At least I got a controller, maybe now I can learn more about transitions, scratching and stuff. 🙂

    COngratz on soon-to-be your gig, dont lose hope yet, as Chuck pointed out the universe awarded you, now the universe giving you a chance to practice more, use it for your benefits.

    PS in regards of the equipment, you said the event manager dude had a full set of Pioneer gears, cant you like “borrow” or perhaps “rent” it from him ? with some kind of terms and conditions ?

    That’s indeed the first thing I thought of, but the other DJ-dude refused. (I think he’s just jealous)

    And now I may be set for playing tomorrow on Children’s Day, if the weather permits. 🙂
