    Ditto Ikea. You can buy individual components for a desk so you can get exactly what you want. It’s very good value too. I got mine for around £80.

    Yeah I noticed that afterwards, I ended up with keys 1-0 mapped to the same thing as q-p! D’oh!

    Thanks for your reply Emma.

    I can drag the title into a sample deck that works great – thanks! Is there any way to assign this to a keyboard shortcut?

    Auto gain seems to be on and all my tracks say that the gain has been adjusted in the Analysed column. The thing is when I look at the level meter on the main mixer the tracks come through at different volumes. Its as if Traktor and the the mixer are measuring gain in a different way.

    If you’re the first DJ then chances are the room might be empty when you start. That’s my experience anyway.

    I’m trying to do the same thing with Traktor but am stuck on how to map the “create loop the copy into sample deck” feature. Does anyone know how to do this without using the mouse?

    @Emma – I’d be interested to hear a mix of yours where you are using lots of decks/channels to see what you get up to! Got any mixes like this on line? I heard a dubstep mix you did for your radio show on Soundcloud. I’m not that familiar with dubstep though so I couldn’t spot any wizardry that might have been going on.

    Sasha / Hawtin.

    I’ve been DJing for years but was bit bored with CDJs.

    No didn’t keep the email – it was too painful!
    We’re married now though so I think I have forgiven her.

    If you want to hear a sad story, hear this:

    In the run up to Sasha doing the Maida Vale Essential Mix, he ran a competition where you had to email in and give reasons why you deserve to win tickets. My girlfriend entered for me and wrote a really good email about how I looked after her after she had an operation.
    The Essential Mix was on the same day as my birthday (22nd May) so I really wanted to win. Well, the mix came and went and I recorded the mix off the radio.
    A few days later my girlfriend checked her email and found three emails from a guy at Excession (Sasha’s label back then) saying she had won and needed to get back in touch ASAP.
    So when you hear Pete Tong say that the mix was performed live in front of a studio of friends and competition winners – I should have been there.
    Moral of the story = check your emails regularly when you enter competitions!!!
    🙁

    Just had to share this too. Very different type of DJing and he IS my favourite DJ. The skill is more in the presentation, build up and atmosphere than technical skills…

    Cheers, I managed to find it. Its under Cue/Loop > Set/Store Hot Cue. Then you assign a deck and a number.
