however I'm really looking forward to being reunited with my 1200s in Melbourne and setting up serato and doing some more on the fly mixes.

then i realised i would have to spend $600 to make mp3's go around in circles on a turntabvle
seems like something from 1978 TBH
'oh yeh bro u get ur mp3 - then you buy a laptop - then you get your expensive turntables and put a fake bit of vinyl on them - ok still with me - after that you buy some software - oh yeah and another soundcard especially for the software - then you press the sync button and the key detect button - stand back - rave - but don't rave too far away or a pikey will nick your laptop'
nah dont think so

to sell or not to sell
?

As much as I love Serato using a 1200 as essentially a mechanical pitch controller is the most ridiculous thing ever.
