Digital DJ Turntable

Daniel Gomez-Ibanez writes "I made a digital turntable - it stores digital audio and plays it back like a record player. This lets you scratch the audio from a CD. I like it because there's no 'computer' involved- a four year old can figure it out. There's a description here." Daniel also has a more descriptive web page on the inspiration and design of this beast.

    This isnt a new technology.

    Gene Kan was a punk whose only contribution to society was a piece of (shit) software that allowed people to rip off the record companies, and ARTISTS! Honoring Gene Kan with a story about his death would be like writing an obituary for the guy who invented armed robbery. RIP Gene! A happy day for Metallica.

  3. "most DJs"? by Wakko+Warner · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I've never seen a DJ that plays MP3s, and I'd laugh at one that did. Real DJs use vinyl and, to a lesser extent, CD.

    What on earth can you do as an MP3 DJ? Attempt to poorly beatmatch?

    At least you can scratch CDs now.
