What % of Ableton DJ's mime?
Saw a pair of Ableton DJ's last evening do the odd bit of 'miming'. Silly things like pretend to turn on basslines with the EQ's, when clearly their laptop wasn't wired up to the mixer anyway. And it's not as if a producer is ever going to release a tune where a DJ is going to have to trigger an integral part of the track every 2 bars by twisting the bass dial to 4 O'clock (in real life that might blow the speakers!), because that would be an unfinished song.

I'm not hating on Ableton Live users because they don't beatmatch, after all it's still an improvised DJ set. But this comedic miming further confuses people as to what a DJ really does. So, how often do you see this in clubs, and if you're an Ableton user are you guilty of it?
