That's cool, hip hop is one of the most fun genres of music to mix. Just a lot of fun to cut up songs and do quick mixes.

Serato DJ will still work with the V7, even though I prefer the older simplified interface of Serato ITCH.

You could give the new version of Serato DJ a try, it should be a free download for you off the Serato site since you own a V7. Traktor is popular yes, but there's nothing stopping you from going into a more EDM route with your current setup.

Seems like the most difficult or time consuming part would just be shopping Beatport (or your favorite music seller) and finding a nice library of new songs that you like!

My TPMS light came on but when I checked my tires, they were right where I left them months ago: 31 front, 29.5 rear.

What the hell?

And sadly it gets left out overnight EVERY night!

Ah. Hmmm, I forget if there's a way to reset the light on our cars. I know some cars have a button tucked away somewhere.

I do prefer ITCH over SDJ only because I started on that program haha. Yeah, I used to be subscribed to DJ City way back when, but I haven't gotten around to updating my library. I wish there was a way to use spotify and SDJ together!

I haven't been running TPMS for over 3 years now. I figure if you know even a little about cars you can feel or visually tell if a tire is low. It's just not worth the money for me. lol

It's worth the money to have the sensors swapped so I don't have that yellow light on my dash.

I'm cheap, the yellow light is free.

If you knew Toyotastream (which I don't) you could just turn the light off. Not sure if dealer will do it or not. I should ask.

I have a feeling the answer will be no, as a functioning TPMS is required by federal law on newer cars like ours.

yeah as i understand it there isn't a way to disable it with techstream. from what i read the techstream that we can buy on the cheap is actually the same fully functional one that dealerships use, but again i don't think it's possible to do that. if anything you probably have a bad tpms sensor unless you've recently done crazy electrical things with your car(i've done that and have had the tpms come up even though it shouldn't have). otherwise your best option is to just pull out your speedo and put a piece of tape over the light if it's really bugging you.

I've asked about it, and was told that our TechStream is not capable of turning off the TPMS light, and if it can anyway, it would report that to Toyota corporate, which would then fire the technician who used it.
