    Would definitely recommend the SB3 to everyone.
    I've just started out and your video is really helpful as I am learning by myself, basically went in the store, blindly bought it... the guy thought I knew what I was doing and didn't explain much.
    Anyway, thanks again and would defs recommend the SB3 to beginners

      +Crossfader I have a few questions.can I use an analog mixer for DVS?or does it have to be a digital mixer?Also if I use DVS,and everything is in the laptop.if unhook the turntables,and then hookup this controller will it be the same music?or will I have to put all new music for the controller?One more thing,does the laptop have to be an apple to use DVS and controller's or can it be any computer?

    • @Crossfader
      @Crossfader  6 лет назад

      DVS is an expansion for different softwares. For example to use DVS you will need a DVS enabled mixer/soundcard/controller. These products differ depending on which software you decide to use.
      The analog mixer would have to go through a DVS soundcard making it a digital source unless you know of a plug and play analog mixer.
      Did you have a mixer already in mind?
      A controller would go into your laptop separate to the DVS soundcard/mixer. DVS mode uses something called absolute or relative mode whereas controllers use internal mode. You would literally press a button in the software to switch control over from the DVS and turntables and your controller.
      No you don’t need an Apple MacBook to use DVS or Dj with. Windows laptops are supported also.

    Thanks for the review Jamie. I bought this to teach kids and I think it'll be a great entry point for them versus my DJ808. I'm kind of annoyed at Serato that I cannot use my existing DJ Pro license from my Roland DJ808 on this. Serato should allow you to add devices into their Pro license rather than deploying the license through the hardware manufacturer. 249 pounds in the UK but 649 in New Zealand, it's getting out of reach already for parents who want support their kids down under.

    Just don't understand why people have a problem with a noob like me being able to scratch with no self training. It's the audience that counts. People on the dance floor are not going to know the difference - they are only going to enjoy my creative mix! I get to spend more of my time to creating context/content rather than laborious effort in one technique. This attitude wrecks of narcissism and just plain old selfishness! How dare you be able to do what i do without having spent years of trial and error! LOL.....Freaking Amazing!

    • @Bremflux
      @Bremflux 5 лет назад

      Think of scratching as playing an instrument. Surely you can wow your friends with presets from a keyboard or beat machine, but that's not you... You've gotta do it yourself as djing is an art. Part of the art is mixing and mashing and effects, but basic scratching and beat matching is the 1st skill you should master. You should want to learn this honestly.
