basically not, dubplate means that a softer kind of pvc is used so you you don't need the high quality > How does this work anyway ? my guess > The vinyl is burned with a audio frequency clock signal > The box 'listens' to the signal from each turn table in my case there is no box, just 2 standard turntables and dubplates with a sawtooth wave @440hz (ok so there's no queuing via the record, but that's relatively easy to solve, just didn't have the time to get that finished for the project) the soundin of the computer receives the two signals from the record player, a pd patch then analyses frequency and direction and sends this data on to - and here comes the good thing - wherever you want, you could use this (I did at least) to synchronice sequencer clocks, regular audio files or video or ehatever you can come up with ... I heavily doubt that you can do this with stantons product and I guess that I'm not using patented technology here because it's more general purpose (+ I'm in the EU anyway, so I can use it for a few years) if you have two stereo outs + you don't mind queueing using a mouse it's pretty much like djing (with ladspa - hey - you're in pd's signal path) + it works on any linux box (I demonstrated it on a celeron 433 w 128 megs of ram that was lying around unused in the office) cheers, x -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Postmodernism is german romanticism with better http://pilot.fm/ special effects.
