    I won’t knock a total newblood who can make solid and creative mixes on his computer using sync. I’ll knock him if he gets paid a lot to get in front of a crowd, and he can’t perform when sync fails him…

    Like many DJ’s here, I started out on 1200s, then moved to CD playesr, then to Media players and now to Traktor Pro. And yes, I Synch tracks to the Traktor’s Master clock. However, I won’t hesitate to turn off Synch and adjust the tempo by ear if I hear the tracks drifting off beat, which happens more often than not.

    To the OP, Sych is a tool. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s how well you use that tool, along with everything else (song selection etc.) that determines how good (or bad) of a DJ you are.

    All I’m using is a pair of Kontrol X-1’s. I was thinking about replacing them with a pair of Midi Fighters, but nah…

    A rotary mixer. If I can find one that I really like.

    I may have further thoughts after thinking about this for longer;
    But my initial thoughts are these;…
    3. It is So Hard not to be Sexist here; but as in Football and Snooker; DJ’ing is Mainly a Male Orientated Profession; and unless a Female has a Contact in the Music Industry or is Encouraged or Set Up by another Female DJ; it is Incredibly Hard to be taken Seriously; in my Own Case I had to ‘Make It’ with my Remixes before I was taken Seriously as a DJ/Producer;…

    Bingo!
    That, is probably the MAIN reason.
