Microsoft Introduces Crossfader
Posted by James Fee in "ARTICLE" @ 02:00 PM
"Microsoft has launched a new site called Crossfader, aimed at becoming a community resource and how-to guide for DJs and electronic musicians. Scratch that – specifically for electronic musicians using PCs, rather than Macintosh computers. This isn't just Apple-bashing ad copy, however. The site is launching in beta format featuring a video shot and instructional interview with DJ Spooky, a New York-based music collagist with plenty of art and street cred. A quick perusal shows Crossfader seems to be serious about becoming a forum where musicians can swap ideas and tips on software and production techniques."
Not a bad idea. DJ's can really push a format and making it much easier for them to use Windows just makes business sense. Corssfader is a really interesting site and anyone who is interested in music should check it out.
