Hmm.. I'm working with 24 bit Wave files recorded at 96Khz!! So, no it's nothing like that..
I'm pretty sure it is the timestretching alrgorythm.. Either way though, I think I'm gonna give Ableton a go?!?! Dunno what its like but my mate reckons it should work pretty well for what I want to do... cheers for the advice though... If Ableton sucks, I'll have to dig Traktor out!!
