oooh lame.

Any idea of how long this would be for? Potential overtime involved? A brief amount of work will fund more booze

Probably just a few hours. It's doing research....no overtime because it's not a full time job.

Adobe Audition.

It's the only program out there that allows you to digitally stretch and compress wave lenghts. (via time component)

there's lots more to it, but that's just the basics.


If you wanted something to mix live with ... like a dj console:
Traktor's DJ Studio.


If you had turntables and a mixer ... but are SICK of buying vinyl
http://www.rane.com/scratch.html

this thing is the shit.
use the laptop to feed songs into the Serato hub
the Serato hub feeds data to your exiting turntables
and you have intant vinyl control over MP3s.

no more record crates, no more cds ... just a laptop (and pray to god it doesn't crash)

check the demo

You can do the same thing using Traktor's DJ Studio and a laptop.

How much does that all cost? I would love to spin some techno/trance in my room, but plunking down thousands could be money well spent elsewhere.

If you have the funds, Serato + torrents = :bowdown:

If you don't have the funds, Traktor's DJ Studio + torrents =

Hmmm ... working on Saturday = no Friday out?

It might not be worth it


if they ask you to work, I'd do it though. :hs:

Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to his birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Amal.

He responds, "They're twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Amal."
