    I’ve been djing close to 30 years. I don’t own a set yet but after playing on 1200’s vinyl and cdj 1200’s(sl-1200dz) in clubs , house parties, etc. I can see how phase will allow you to still play on your turntables without worrying about needle or record wear . Also vibration from speakers and the person who bumps your table. It’s definitely my next purchase for my set up. Great video!!!! 💯

    Not many people who invest in a turntable system can keep up with the maintenance of buying needles and vinyl over time🙋‍♂. Especially when you're starting out and want to practice everyday. Phase was my best friend during 2020-2021! Can't believe I could just keep practicing without worrying about snapping a needle or fading my vinyl. The less we have to worry about hardware, the more freedom we have to enjoy DJing.

    Technology has literally watered down the basic art form of DJing. Balance & Touch is the beginners first basic lesson of becoming a DJ & we used a penny or nickel until we didn't need them anymore. Today's DJ wants to drive the Lamborghini without ever learning how to ride a Bicycle. I'm not knocking anyone but fancy equipment & technological advancements alone doesn't qualify someone to call themselves a DJ it just makes them a studio engineer...

  • @AlexMoschopoulos
    @AlexMoschopoulos Рік тому +1

    I started off on turntables back in 1992 because that's the only option. There were no CDJs, no computers with MIDI controls. Over time, I got into CDs and then digital and never looked back.
    Outside of the problems shown here in this video, there was also the issue that for a while, I would show up to events and their turntables would be broken, malfunctioning, or just messed up. It becomes disconcerting when you're going to play and the club's equipment is broken.
    After a while, you just started to not see the turntables around any more. I also would notice if those turntables are broken or faulty, and you're trying to use time code vinyl, it becomes sketchy and problematic.
    What I love about a MIDI control is that I can walk in, hook it up quickly, play, and I don't have to worry about if the club's equipment is solid or not. We can all say that a club should have proper equipment, but reality shows more times than not that it's never the case.
    I've heard the death about the touch of vinyl, the warmth, comment, etc, but to be honest, I love the music more than I love the medium. I think now turntables are more a niche thing if you want to do it. However, the days of turntables being the standard are far over.

    • @djcarlo
      @djcarlo  Рік тому

Then, started using CDJ100 with CDs, then eventually USB then controller. But the feel of vinyl is still the best. When I heard about Phase in 2019, i knew it was going to be a game changer cause it will eliminate all the problems you just pointed out on your video. Been saving for it ever since.

It has taken a second to get my father onto the phase wave because he’s a true old school dj and doesn’t even like using anything having to do with digital but I’ve finally got him onto it lol. The only problem I have is because of the style of beatmatching that I do. I can’t use the spindle to slow down the song but it’s made me able now to match by nudging the sides

    I've used my own 1200s, vinyl, in the clubs, and on the road for decades. Your examples of hating turntables are way extreme. If that were the case, clubs, DJs and nightlife wouldn't exist over the past 40+ years. I'm using controllers on the road nowadays. Good job on the video. A bit way extreme but point is taken.

    The number 1 reason why "modern" DJs HATE using turntables is because there's no big screens showing you waveforms or BPMs, no sync buttons that makes anyone a "dj". You need to rely on your skills and knowledge . Plus, DJing is not just about scratching as this movie shows. Anyways... Good Phase add though.

    Been wanting to get a set since it was first released. The HID integration is definitely the coup de grâce. Good to see the Phase team following through on their product with consistent software updates. I think I can retire my Ortofon Concordes now.

      Indeed! Having HID in there really changed the game for Phase, and I'm all for it!
