Why not one of those little beat composer packages like the Yamaha SY10
and its descendents? You could have fun mucking around on the train and
gin up a few tracks while you're at it ( that is, once you get past the
unser interface).

nice. i wouldn't trade my mixer and three turntables for the world, i
just want a toy to play with on the train. i often find myself
wishing my ipod had mixing and looping abilities. i'd get a lot more
done musically if i had a hand held tunes tool/toy!

Choosing between an IPhone or Tonium and some new Ortofons, I'd go

I've not used either of those gizmos, but my old-man eyes and clumsy
fingers would make them both frustrating to use. Plus you'll never
drop your mixer and 1200s in the toilet accidentally.

Slightly OT - I'm in the market for a DJ toy and/or smart phone (ha!
smart phone!) and I'm considering getting an iPhone 3Gs, or possibly
saving a little more and getting a Tonium Pacemaker. Granted, these
two devices are almost nothing alike so it might not make sense to be
choosing between the two. What I want to know though is if there are
any mp3 based DJ mixer apps for the iPhone that do <basically> what
the Pacemaker does? I tried googling but didn't come up with much of
anything useful. I'm mostly interested in the idea of being able to
beatmatch and mix tracks while on the train, mostly for entertainment
purposes and to sketch out rough ideas. Also, if anybody knows of any
really fantastic music apps other than djing, that would be valuable
info too. Thanks!
