    Anyone know where Pickering got it from - presuming he layered it over the top? I've found a disco beast with it over the top as well :hubba: Cheers Ed

    Favourite Edits thread

    So the last year or so, everyone is going mad for edits, lots of disco, electro, 80's coming back, all the records that old skool house in the UK, Chicago and Detriot were sampling and snipping.

    Don't seem to be able to get any music on there at all. Get the 'an error has occurred' message. Is everyone else the same?

    WAV's vs 320 bps MP3

    What's the score here? I know Scott always talks about WAV's, but I can't seem to tell the difference in quality really. Is there one?

    Cinema surround sound

    Bit of a tech question, but thinking of getting one, and am wondering if anyone puts their decks through one? It'll all be in the same room anyway, seems nuts to have 2 amps and 2 sets of speakers. Anyone doing thus already or got any advice? Cheers Ed

    Doing your own edits

    Ok, I may have done a thread on this before but I can't find it. Im on a Mac, I'd like to do some edits, simple stuff like moving the middle bit to the start, looping bars, that kind of thing. Ideally it's be utterly spastic proof and simple, cos I don't have the time or the patience to be...

    House classics you could do on the piano? Thinking caps on!

    Was thinking about this this other, and remember Fatboy Slim can do 'Strings of Life' on the piano! An obvious one is Alison Limerick - Where Love Lives What others could you do in a lounge set? Preferably that work as songs with vocals.
