do the decks actually spin?
- Asked by JW from Portland
- Nov 30, 2009
Best Answer
i actually found a video of the spin on the djay website, and it seems that the decks DO SPIN - BUT ONLY WHEN YOU SPIN THEM.
so
as the track is playing, they sit still, although when you go to manipulate the audio by touching the decks, they do move, you actually scratch or pause or slow or speed up the tracks by spinning the controller.
while a full time spinning deck would be much more authentic and natural to control, i mostly was worried that it's be like some touch sensitive plate that you had to slide your fingers over, and i did not like the idea of that at all.
so
this product seems to fall right in the middle of my desires and expectations, it's basically a better interface than using the laptop track pad. …More- Answered by JW from Palo Alto
