    Good acapellas can be found on Beatport and Traxsource under DJ Tools genre. You probably can find some good short loopable vocals in tracks you already have. Look through old tracks that have vocals. You might find something where you didn't think to look like old disco, blues, jazz, R&B, even classic rock. You can loop a bar or two or chop it up and use hot cues. Chopping it up is fun because peole may recognize it but not remember what it is sampled from.

    My McAfee site advisor didn't like it, but it's been wrong before.

    Strictly personally, i'm not that fond of mashing tracks up, with samples, traktor-fx or loops, or other things to place a dj on a pedestal.
    For me, dj'ing is mixing 2 records, that's it.
    Producing new stuff has to be done with a sequencer at home imho.
    That's why NI is completely off course with the PRO-version. What's in the next version, another useless 23 FX?
    Sure great toys for a dj to play with. But a dj plays not for himself, but for an audience. They don't care about an application with 256 features, they just want to enjoy themselves with simple and easy records one after another.
    That's why i'm stuck and satisfied with T3.

    Topicstarter is asking for accapella's, not your opinion.

    I'm from the oldschool and I do appreciate the technology dvs systems brings.
    Nobody is forcing you to use any of the features.


    Good for you.
