> I started mixing and continue to do it to this day. It's important for anyone who is djing. Mixing clear is. The discussion was whether beat matching live matters. (you still need to quantise your tracks if you use Ableton but you do it before the gig rather than during it). > Technical detail is what this discussion is about. I never use the term "beat matching" because it's kind of been all in one for me. However, "beat matching" does matter. You're telling me that train wrecking is okay as long as it's mixed good. Nobody was arguing that train wrecking your way through each mix is a good thing. Nor was I arguing that we shouldn't discuss the technical detail. > I was referring to what you said:( > > "I've never gotten the same emotional connection with CDJs nor Ableton."* Yes, but you ignored the first part where I discussed that I was talking about the tactile sensation rather than the musicality. That context is essential to the sentence you quoted. > I feel like you're jabbing at me now. I wasn't trying to be disrespectful. If you want to play that game, well, we could do that all day. Not helping anyone out though. Sorry if you feel that way - I assure you that wasn't my intention. However you're not really in a position to play the sympathy card given the tone of your posts leading up to this point.
