Whether you are just getting into DJing, or are an old hat at this biz, you know that the roots are in old analog turntables. When you play on a turntable, whether you are cueing, scratching, beat matching, or showing off some other mad skill, the motor in the turntable fights you. Well, fights you isn’t really the word. It provides tactile feedback that is useful in working those beats. If you are stepping up to a computer based system, missing that feedback can make it seem toy like, and unusual. Worse, it can affect your timing and skills. A motorized dj controller helps to alleviate those issues by giving your fingers the input they desire. Even if you have never used a real turntable in your life, once you get used to the platter actually pushing back, and the input that provides, you will never want to go back.
