    Well I've done folders (house, tech house, progressive, funky & electro) That way the tracks aren't all bunched up. I would have to make a playlist just to make sure I dont play the same track twice.

    Other than that, one should be fine with that many tracks on a cd.
    didn't realize the reply got bumped lower then where I thought it would go.

    Standard audio is just burning as a regular CD and putting several tracks on each one.

    Some DJ's just have 1-3 tracks on each CD, others do more, I like to get around 8-10. I don't like full maxing time-wise since those outer tracks are the first to go/skip as the CD gets heavy use out of it.

    Problem with burning straight MP3's is not every club has MP3-compatible CD decks yet...so you couldn't essentially play. And unless you know where the tracks are on a MP3 CD, cueing it up would be a bitch (note: fast cueing = hold track search and use the jog wheel on the Pioneer's; Denon's have that nice dial for track selecting)

    unless you know your tracks that well, not much of a fan of 90 tracks on 1 CD...sure it's nice and all (and more compact), but standard audio still works especially if you play out.

    the blue and the brown desk in that pic are at 90 degrees to each other and that pic makes the room a damn sight bigger than it is... the monitors are less than a metre if standing infront of the mixer. monitors are set up so sweet spot is in front of the pc... more critical for me now than prime position for mixing.

    why in the world do you have the monitors over that far in the room, or do you always dj in your headphones?

    as to fangstick, you really need to get yourself some risers for those speakers, along with some foam to put them on to keep vibrations down. Vibrations AKA Feedback...are the enemy of a great sound system.

    It feels like I am there.

    With my new mk2's, I figure I would only need 2 cd's to play for hours on end. Big advantage from the old cdj's that dont have that mp3 option. The mp3 folder search is the shit, easy to use, just load up your cd's accordingly with like 90 tracks on each one and your set!!
