That's gotta be a pain. No pitch control, No cueing, Only one song can be played at a time. I'm curious as to why anyone would go digital and than use iTunes? If he still has to use his CDs for every other song, what's the point?
When I use my lappy I use the old Winamp 2.95. I usually have three or four instances open, depending on the event:
One is set for onboard audio for cueing.
One is setup with a great 'smart' crossfading plugin from back in the day to the external sound card. This is where you can set up a playlist either ahead of time or on the fly and pretty much just let it fly -- great for background music and actually pretty much any event, because you can always change the order/add/remove songs on the fly.
Two of them are loaded up with essentially every song I've got digitally, so with a quick J command I can jump to any song available, or pull up instantly to see if I've got a specific request. These go to the external sound card. The reason I have two open is so that if one is busy playing, I can still access the entire library from the other one and manually start the next track from player B when player A song gets done.
I realize there are probably easier ways to do it, with more options (speed/pitch/etc) but [in my mind anyway] I have complete control, the option to use the auto crossfade [which works remarkably well once configured] and it's free [not that big of an issue.] I should add - all 4 instances could theoretically play simultaneously.
Again I still use CDs for a lot and don't rely completely on a laptop.
Right, but iTunes is much different from Winamp. He is not using multiple instances of iTunes nor is this really an option. ITunes doesn't support mutiple sound cards.
And both options still lack the ability to cue. This is a vital function for me and I don't understand how any DJ could go without it. And if you want to beatmix forget about it.

Yeah I'm not sure why I got sidetracked on the Winamp thing there, I think I just wanted to share another option that works for me.
Cueing isn't natively supported with the Winamp option, but the way I've got it set up it is 75% functional (meaning that you can't cue from the same playlist as the main sound card but if you've got the files in front of you you can easily).
I have always refused to use or even try iTunes. I can honestly say I've never used it.
Anyway, again I'm just sharing what I use since we're kind of on the subject of non-standard dj software.

This is Canada...variance.....we don't need no stinkin' variance.....
(quick....name the movie ; substitute badges for variance)
(quick....name the movie ; substitute badges for variance)
"The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" with Humphrey Bogart.
and don't say I'm wrong cause I'm not.
Wrong!!!! Blazing Saddles......
1948 The Treasure of the Sierra Madre/Film Gold Hat/ Alfonso Bedoya "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges!"
Not original, but most probably best-known reference:
1974 Blazing Saddles/Film Mexican Bandit "Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!"

I hate it when people post tiny pics that you can't see any detail in!
Internet Explorer/Firefox should size them down to fit on your screen when you click on them, if you're using one of those two. I'm sure Opera, Safari probably do too. I don't see the problem?
Sorry about that, and thanks for the comments. It's taken 22years to get to this quality. Was thinking about the 900 mixer; the 406 is nice but it runs really hot for a mixer. Not sure why the photos turned out so big, on my website they are no where's that size.
As for a variance requirement for the laser, as far as I know you're OK if you are 3m off the floor and not crowd scanning. Keep it aimed at the ceiling or higher.
If you want to see some videos of the laser, this is HUGE but it works:
106MB http://www.questsend.ca/temp/RGY_Laser_vid1.AVI
76MB http://www.questsend.ca/temp/RGY_Laser_vid2.AVI
That's what I knew you were going for and that's why I said "Don't tell me I'm wrong cause I'm not."
