Well to clarify- a lot of DJs are already digital (CDs are digital!) but people like Sasha have switched away from the laptop/Ableton/Maven combination and went back to the CDJs (with SD cards and USB keys, NOT CDs) all thanks to the Quantize function that really does keep the beats PERFECT in every loop. He told me that his eyes were "like sand" on Mondays after weekends gigging... and was so happy to be back on the CDJ2000 + DJM800 + EFX1000 combination.
The Pitch is perfect on the CDJ2000 (as long as you have the latest firmware on it
http://forums.pioneerdj.com/eve/forums/ ... /207101424) and most hire companies i've used the new players on haven't even updated them. All it takes is to carry the firmware/driver update on your USB key and do it yourself before the gig- only takes 2 min to update anyway.
Other DJs are using external/portable hard drives with the CDJ2000s...
Whatever you choose to work with is a matter of personal preference- and Pioneer have really found the right solution for me-
BLESS the CDJ2000!!
