Just got our (me and my production partners)first gig. I'm not the DJ, more the engineer. The thing is that I sold my MPC and 3000 to pay for my 75% digital set up. That means that I ain't got shit to trigger samples, loops, fx, etc over her DJ set.

I wanna look cool you see :-), so any ideas on what a good piece of kit would be (not too expensive) that would enable me to interact (on the fly) with my DJ?

spoons, washboard, kazoo, rubber bands on a shoebox. The possibilities are endless!

i'd suggest an old s/h s1000 or whatever keyboard - then you can load up samples mapped across the keys and jam along!!

what about one of those kaos pads (?) i've seen a couple of djs use them, bit of flanging here and there never did any one any harm/good.

you need some sort of sampler and some sort of fx i'd think, but i try not to think too often.

I second the ES-1.I still have my MPC and
want one of those for the backpack abilities it
exudes.Add an Air FX and engineer away.
