HI
My names Sandy....and I'm fairly new to this game....only been DJing this year.

Its my main occupation.....basicallly I liked the idea of working mainly weekends and kicking my heels all week. I'm dead proud of my rig....i have a cortex which i'm madly in love with.....so running from hard drive, i-pod and laptop. I also have karaoke .....all on hard drive.

Who needs a gym when you have a mobile disco! Been told i'm starting to look like Olive Oil on steroids (scary thought eh)

I'm on a very steep learning curve....so hope to be picking a few brains!

Hi Sandy

Nice to have a female on the forum!

Feel free to join in and ask as many questions as you like. (Don't forget the search facility though, as some subjects have been done to death!)

Hi Sandy, I might be your nearest MDD member in Thrapston ( Denford )

Yes, us Cortex users have to stick together--have you had any glitches with it?

Have you met Dollar Bill the expert Line Dancer in your travels at Peterborough?

hey....drop in for a coffee. Haven't had any glitches yet with the cortex.....but have had a few problems with the i-pod, so i now carry an identical back up.....and I can work between the laptop and i-pod anyway......now you've scared me....what kind of glitches could i expect?

BTW....not been operating here long cus I was DJing in Cornwall.....so a few local contacts would be great.

I PODS BREAKING DOWN? excellent news:D

Must tell the I pod Wedding enthusiasts when they ring up :D

The only Cortex glitches are normally self inflicted--as we have found out--so no its not surprising you havent had a problem.

One or two people have rubbished the unit but those who have it on this forum seem to get on fine--it doesnt have the same sophistication as some others like Denon--but then some us are---unsophisticated in our needs:D

As I specialise in Country Music and Middle of the Road stuff its ok for me.

My only problem is it doesnt read apostrophes---so the O' Jays are hard to find--I believe there are some other similar reading problems--I havent had a problem myself though.

Unfortunately Im not often in the Borough ( Peterborough ) unless my wife wants to go shopping in John Lewis:eek:

Dollar Bills phone number is 01733 242743 BUT HE WONT KNOW ME, might be worth a contact phone call.

yep....I've had reading probs....but if in doubt i search on the laptop or search by artist/song.....or just miss the word out with the apostrophe!!! Searching is bit of an exact science with the cortex

Tell your wife she has good taste (re:John Lewis)....lol

I've seen your photo. I think it would be totally unjust to start a fight with a man who either has bad eyesight, or is clearly dillusional. :D :D
