Thanks - After have a few problems with iTunes 8 when it was announced, I'm still on iTunes 7. Maybe it's time to upgrade?

I'm still on the last major version of Disco XT (4.8.1), but the preferences do have an option to use an external mixer. If you set it up this way (as opposed to the default of a room mix plus a seperate headphone mix), then the decks appear to be routed independently of eachother.SoundInMotionDJ wrote:I am a little unsure about multi channel sound card support with Disco XT - I prefer to have a monitor channel, and separate channels for Player A and Player B. MegaSeg does support this.
I think I've seen that set-up used elsewhere. As I understand it, you preview in DJ1800 and output in iTunes. But as DJ1800 is DJ software, wouldn't it make more sense (and is it even possible) to do it the other way round?chrisbe wrote:I also use a Mac and I bought DJ1800 a while ago because some DJs recommended it to me.
DJ1800 is good because you can link it with your iTunes library but you can't build up a playlist. So I decided to use it as my prelistening tool in combination with a Griffin iMic.
My current setup:
I have two open windows, the upper quarter of the screen is DJ1800, the lower part is reserved for iTunes, so I can easily drag a song from iTunes into DJ1800 to prelisten the song. In iTunes I create a new playlist at the beginning of my set and then build up or change the set on-the-go while DJing.
As I wrote, with DJ1800 you can't build up a playlist and I prefer to have one for my set, so I can prepare the upcoming 3, 4 songs and if necessary I still can change the order last-minute without losing the overview.Haydn wrote:But as DJ1800 is DJ software, wouldn't it make more sense (and is it even possible) to do it the other way round?

There's probably another point, I really like iTunes, if there only would be a prelistening feature...
'Megaseg', I keep saying, and does anyone listen?trev wrote:I really like the features of this software, but for now I'm going to retract my recommendation.
