TO ADD SOMETHING, I ask WHY digital DJ softwares do not have
integrated somethiong like COVER FLOW you can find on Itunes / Ipod?
Even more, this feature should be completed by the same interface
you have on Ipod Touch / Iphone, displaying the tracklisting of the
album on the "back" of the cover once u clicked on the cover.
This feature might be pattented by Apple, but it would not be that
difficult to imitate (just look at the inner window browsing in
Youtube) and that would be the correction of the BIG defect of
digital DJing that hasnt made me switched yet.
That's a good point. I do think that one of the reasons this hasn't
been prioritised by anyone is that a lot of digital djs use wavs/aiffs
(from online stores and from their own recorded vinyl). It's a little
harder to associate meta-data and images with files like this.
However, it isn't that hard to work around that so any solution to
this (maybe built into Tracktor or Ableton Live) could even have tools
to manage that too.
As a side note. I wouldn't expect this to come from the Ableton folk.
They seem to have gone down the DAW route a lot recently rather than
concentrating on performance.
