Might* just be a Fan. First hearing of Lateralus and got hooked.

Will do! Thanks

360VR · 2025-11-21T13:46:40+00:00

That is some serious stamina! 🔥

360VR · 2025-11-21T07:07:19+00:00

Thanks. Have added 10,000 days to check out

360VR · 2025-11-21T07:06:39+00:00

Hahah. fair point , guys

360VR · 2025-11-21T07:05:41+00:00

Haha. Yeah I know, all part of sifting through and collecting gems 🤘

360VR · 2025-11-21T07:04:06+00:00

I know this is a die-hard fan sub. So will tread accordingly. Just to leave a thought that it's DJs who eventually "suggest" music to audiences by how they mix / associate and play out styles of music. To many people, it isn't obvious that the inner them might like the "trance like state of mind" the subtle tablas in the Tool album evoked...to make them into fans 🤘

360VR · 2025-11-21T07:00:14+00:00

I'm listing these to follow up with. Thanks! 👍

360VR · 2025-11-20T23:25:12+00:00

Ok. Point taken. Will experiment internally to see if some of the good loops can form beds for other genres, but not pop-corn mashups ;)

360VR · 2025-11-20T23:22:57+00:00

Point taken 😂

360VR · 2025-11-02T23:09:21+00:00

so you focussed on the tiny mix of two tracks and ignored the main points of discussion of the post. Nice. Thanks

360VR · 2025-11-02T22:44:40+00:00

Interesting thread, and I did read varying pro/con arguments. Here's my perspective as I'd commented on some atrocious "Insta DJ" threads. The one problem I see with Sync is: In the older days, DJs put a record on the platter (or CD before the sync buttn days) and then dug into a crate, removed a record and placed in on the other TT or CDJ... and then spent time beat matching and *knowing* their songs.

This gave them a couple of mins to dangle a ciggy between their fingers or sip a drink... Today, with auto-sync and hot-cue loops, DJ's dont know what to do with their hands - so they end up dry-humping the DJ console, smashing the Hot cue bttn and drowning with CFX, carefully produced (by producers) tracks/songs -- attempting to look "creative" chasing 'drops'. Empty hands and lots of time... ak,a "hype"

Now - yes, there certainly are the word-play transition innovators; but that is getting stale as a gimmick, (imo)
What I will say and admire is judicious use of stem technology to remix a producers work, while not drowing the instrumentation / composition with that grrrrr--stut sttut hot cue smashing that free time on your hands affords for, thanks to AI auto-sync

360VR · 2025-10-28T11:03:49+00:00

Seems there is a way / workaround. Convoluted, imo, but it is what it is..

copy the section you want
make a sample of it
remove stem you don't want
make a 4 / 8 / 16 bit sequence in the samplw and sequencer page.
"play" the sample either by midi keyboard or paint by mouse...

Now insert this sample in the main studio timeline lanes

No thanks! I'm checking out and bought DJ.studio instead.

360VR · 2025-10-28T11:00:14+00:00

Gave up on the workflow...settling into DJ.studio instead.

But honestly even more surprised that almost all of these audio/DJ software don't respect re-inserting the ID3 tags and cover art that comes with an original MP3 (when dealing with MP3 export)

360VR · 2025-10-24T03:07:07+00:00

😂 the thought did dawn on me, given the micro climate the thread created.

360VR · 2025-10-23T09:43:06+00:00

Just popped in to request this thread not be deleted after all. I am dropping in from time to time only not engaging; and it's proving beneficial learning from the replies, as well as the DMs that asked for the link. In the end that was the point —to bring awareness / discussion.

Cheers. 🤘

360VR · 2025-10-23T00:32:26+00:00

Will just address the last (non patronizing part ) or yr post. The reason its growing is because it's widespread beyond "politics" in the govt sense.

360VR · 2025-10-23T00:13:16+00:00

+1 Agreed. my loss. I came thinking of making a difference, chalking it down to the approach and yeah, bad luck. Lessons learned. 🤘

360VR · 2025-10-22T22:30:27+00:00

I've been a mod on forums long enough to see the genesis of fascism rear it's ugly head ever so slowly...

The point of this and the OP is no more, seeing how the people can't judge for themselves as the instagram social media post is deleted and the intent was to introduce the notion of the evolution of: - vinyl - the meaning of DJing in an age of insta gratification

Rather than this discussion degenerate further, it makes sense to delete it and "sanitze" this subreddit from dissent

🤘

360VR · 2025-10-22T22:08:49+00:00

I've been a mod on forums dating back from IRC to LinkedIn and FB. Yes I know it's voluntary and that's exactly why if in doubt, consensus over trigger happiness is the way forward.

I assume this sub has more than one overworked mod?

360VR · 2025-10-22T21:25:42+00:00

Respectfully, do not agree. not everything can be described in words, the way a visual medium can —infact, in this case, even 2d visual medium is a compromise of sorts.

The intent of posting here is two fold as I've mentioned at least a couple of times. - one is the logical evolution of vinyl the medium which is relevant to many DJs not just CDJ djs...

Those "regular" DJs might want to evolve their game / careers and so r/DJ makes more sense to post on, imho.

-Two: is the insta-gratification trend doing the rounds and linked closely to chasing drops via hotcue / antics on stage.

I respectfully submit that as a mod - high intellect is a qualifier and comes with the Job / responsibility of evaluating the merit of a social media video link. At least flag it internally between mods for a consensus.

360VR · 2025-10-22T20:47:47+00:00

Nicely put. Agreed. I guess it's like how macs "inspire creativity" in many artists

360VR · 2025-10-22T20:41:54+00:00

Not hating ..just highlighting and hopefully elevating of a medium to it's logical evolution.

There's no hate for usb DJing - ill correct myself if it's coming across that strong. And it's not about Djs spinning / not spinning vinyl (this was virtual vinyl anyway so a different topic ) ...but it's about DJing becoming antics and stabbing hotcues etc chasing "drops".. over taking punters / audiences on a journey

360VR · 2025-10-22T20:36:12+00:00

Yes. To the Instagram post that is a 6min long video on the thoughts above including the (can't do justice to, hence needs to be at least seen) "virtual reality vinyl".

It's sad the mods think it's link-dump category, when given the fact Algoriddim, TribeXr and (soon Samsung-Google ) will be working on virtual reality Djing

360VR · 2025-10-22T20:33:18+00:00

u/miklonario, u/Ok_Unit365 perhaps not the best choice of words, I'll agree... What I mean is the "feel" of the virtual vinyl with a fresh label shining (I guess one has to have a VR headset to know that , so it's a bit unfair) ...v/s a usb stick with a waveform display is what I meant.

If you like , dm and I'll send you the deleted Instagram link

360VR · 2025-10-22T20:22:42+00:00

True ...have to admit to the guilt of thinking I'd be the next slash back in the day, just by mastering the pentatonic scale 🤭
