The conversion from books to e-readers was not an easy one, most avid reader\u2019s like the feel of a book in their hand.\u00a0 DJ\u2019s are no different, there have been some futuristic advancements in the equipment that are not welcomed with open arms.<\/p>\n<p>Music went digital then 12 inch record became obsolete and a novelty collection item. Following technological trends it would you lead you to believe that touch screen applications would be next. The Emulator is futuristic and looks like something out of a daft punk video and for all intents and purposes an amazing product. Deadmau5 has developed touch screen software that looks very similar. The idea aggressive and plausible but not popular.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/dj1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-105\" alt=\"Emulator\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/dj1-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/dj1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/dj1.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_104\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/deadmau5.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-104\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-104\" alt=\"DeadMau5 software\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/deadmau5-300x127.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"127\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/deadmau5-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vjstreet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/deadmau5.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-104\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DeadMau5 software<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Then there is this thing it looks like to tool used to open the star gate. At first glance there is nothing on this machine that looks musical at all. It actually looks like an overzealous sifi fan was recreating something from their favorite movie. \u00a0In reality it makes beautiful music and presents itself the same way.
