Depends what you mean by "least expensive" - numbers are helpful. Quality = expensive.

Re: how important is vinyl to you guys?

Depends what it is really. I generally don't buy vinyl if I'm planning to use it mixing because I use traktor and recording vinyl is a massive pain in the arse. On the other hand, if the packaging is proper nice, the tune is quality, and the price isn't mental (>£8-10 for a single... no) I'll be mor...

Re: Beginner Djing/Producing

I want to build my set up too, although I'm going to wait until I feel I've exhausted it, which will take me a while I reckon (have you seen the midi mappings on djtechtools? they're insane!) The great thing about the vci-100 is that at it's most basic level you can take two tracks in Traktor and mi...

Re: Beginner Djing/Producing

You'll be a better DJ learning on the tables before laptop. I'm not sure that's true. I think it's the whole two track only situation and no effects, looping etc that you get yourself into with vinyl. You have to learn how to be good with the minimum amount of equipment, by mixing harmonically, pro...

Re: Beginner Djing/Producing

I was in a similar position to you, although money was a factor for me. I also love vinyl. Nicked my Dad's old Sony hi-fi with a belt drive turntable and used to chill out listening to records, didn't even attempt to mix on it. Looked into getting a pair of turntables and a mixer. Second hand pair o...

Re: What is your backup plan if your laptop dies?

Many of you are telling me ways to back up my data (which is great), but what if your computer crashed and you couldn't re-install in time for your gig? I've got Time Machine making incremental back ups to a partition on an external hdd. Then on another partition, SuperDuper makes a clone of my Mac...

Re: Dubstep DJ Mixing Bible?

Agree with Yong, harmonic mixing is really important. Every track I get, I note down the key as soon as possible, so I don't have to remember it. Meh, equipment. I don't understand the big fuss, people get so hung up over what equipment to get. Spend less time worrying about turntables v controllers...

It is a bit of a piss take, though. Other places manage Monday shippping - if you're prepared to deal with pre-orders you should certainly be able to ship on time.

I'm not normally an angry guy. Just a one off drunken night in my first year of uni that I don't even remember... Nickname stuck.

Glad to hear some of you are finally getting them. I hope mine comes today.

Crap service from Bleep, I won't be using them again. Usually I stick with Juno and Rough Trade, wish I had with this!

bleep.com and Hyperdub 5.1

Any of you pre-order the Hyperdub 5 set from bleep.com? Received it yet?

Mine still hasn't come, bleep.com aren't replying to emails, but not sure if it's 'cause I've just moved house (communal front door, might have been pinched...). Wondered if anyone else has had problems with them.

You can use the vocoder as a basic frequency analyser in Reason. Put the mixer/synth/whatever output into the modulation input of the vocoder.
