The essence of digital DJ'ing for me is all about creativity... ie to be able to use samples / music from stuff that's not available on wax... imo it's NOT about playing MP3s of tunes readily available on vinyl ;) phones:

Holier than thou rant over ;)

This is a fucking ace piece of s/w that rips direct from youtube to mp3...

Free YouTube to MP3 Converter: Download YouTube Video (*.flv) to iPod, PSP & mobile phones MP4 video

Just bang in the link into the window & it downloads a 256k rip to your h/d :)

I've been pillaging youtube for great samples from Shaun of the Dead, Mr Jolly Lives Next Door, The Doors, Scarface etc etc etc :D

Have fun !

All sounds good but how does it improve the quality from the youtube link??? Rips from Youtube always sound dodgy as its Streamed.

Downloading it anyway as if it does rip at 256K and its a genuine sound then thats ace!

Cheerz for the heads up!

It's as good as the source... which is why I'm using it for film quotes & that...

Alot of new music isn't avail on vinyl anymore-it costs record labels too much money.

Having said this-im on a mission to buy anything i really love on vinyl (dance music or not) as it is gonna last as long as I do...mp3's n cd's wont will they?

Nice little tool i will use it for samples and the odd track once I rework them in soundforge, I have to say I love my vci300 and anyone that's heard a mix I've done on there says the same as the versatility you have is jaw dropping.

I'm currently using release candidate 1.5 of itch software and have not had any major hassels with it and they say in itch 2 there will be 4 deck support and a new program that intergrates directly with ableton so you can do real time full on remixes while playing live!!!, also it has a new mixtape function that records your set track by track so if you screw up a mix or muck an effect up it will let you go back and redo where you want seemlessly so no more iffy mixes on cd.

As you can tell I love it so rant over :) btw I'll be using this on Saturday to mash up some tracks ;).
