But going serato prolly means that i wont be able to use the laptop that i just bought (hp G6 w/dual amd processors).They say serato and amd processors dont match.
Depends on your workflow.
another question: If i go controller, does that mean i need two laptops (one being for back-up?)
No, just back your music up onto another drive.
all of a sudden getting a regular pair of Pio or denon decks seems the “right” choice..
a collegue at a gig the other night was telling me that he upgraded his gear with decks (once again) instead of a controller. I really dont know what i should do. But one thing i do know. I want a smaller/lighter flightcase to carry, no more cd’s to burn and no more labeling of cd’s either.
now if a client wants 50 songs played at their wedding or party, i gotta burn them on a cd, label the cd, etc. And if they add a coupla songs last minute, i gotta burn another cd. But i m thinking with a controller, you just make a folder with all the tunes and when the gig is done, you erase the folder and you re done
Another option would be to get a pair of media players. Then all you would need to do would be have a couple of HDDs or thumbdrives.
Now that I think about it, Denon does have a rack mount media player too.
