i was just about to post one of these, lol. Thats the reason I just came here!! hahahaha. I am dying to know what the price for the this new tool will be, I’m estimating a good 500-600 or so, which is way above my price range, so I’ll be sticking to my plan for an x1. But if I ever get the cash, I think this will be my next purchase, although I would definitely like to see some reviews on this before I even consider shelling out the cash for it.

Edit: the price is 669 USD. Very cool unit though

Well I have a cheap sound card (that is far better than my MBP’s sound card actually) that I use for cuing my tracks and I can always get another if I want because at this point in time, I don’t think I’m willing to spend that type of money yet because I’m only 3 months into this. Truthfully, what I don’t quite understand is why mixers are important anymore because when you are a software-only DJ with a controller and sound card for queuing, why don’t you just do the function of the mixer inside the software program? I mean, can’t i do everything i can do on a mixer straight from an x1? Thanks for the help, will definitely look into that set up.

I second Max. You are honestly an inspiration more than you could believe and you show me how much can be accomplished in the face of adversity, which is incredible to me. Just keep in mind that to me and many others on here, you are far more than “nothing” and I would be blessed to meet you one day, and look forward to that day. I hope you can think of me as more than just an “online” friend. Actually, as a matter of fact, I took a leadership class at my sleep away camp and we were asked to describe people who inspired us and helped us be who we are today and who are great leaders, and I talked about “my friend Emma, a great DJ who is resilient and stands strong against any obstacles thrown her way”.

Thank you very much Emma, it feels great to be recognized for this to be quite honest. Also, although it’s often difficult, we even more often share great times together and make memories that will last a lifetime.

Hi Emma. In fact, I have mild OCD, but the real mental illness in my family is my sister. She has Bipolar Disorder. I try to offer a lot of support and help her a lot, but sometimes she doesn’t understand exactly what I’m saying and can get overwhelmed and upset. I mean I still annoy her in a brotherly way, but I try not to when she is in a bad mood or if it looks dark ahead. I don’t get mad at her for being bipolar, because I know she is suffering far more than I am from her condition, but sometimes what she says hurts my feelings because sometimes she can’t control herself and she takes vicious verbal stabs at me, although I know it is not her fault, and sometimes it is even at the hands of my instigation. I look into ways to help her and read up on the disorder, but in the end, it all comes down to being there when she needs you to cheer her up, encourage her, and just let her know that she is incredibly special to us.

Now Emma, I’m on my iPod now, but I’ll send you a PM tomorrow finishing my thought.

Great, moving advice Emma, I thank you for your kindness and open arms, and will definitely take the above to heart. Thanks for such a meaningful reply, as it means a lot to me, and I will try and remember what you told me whenever I should encounter difficulty. -Mike
