I want to buy DJ equipment, and I am an absolute beginner. Will someone please tell me, whether buying an amplifier is a must. I am planning to buy 2 turntables, a mixer and speakers. I am curious – how to figure out (given i am offered 2 turntables, mixer and speakers) whether I should also ask for an amplifier.
Thanks in advance.
I have plenty of music and I have made my own mixes and tracks, i have no turntables,mixers, or big speakers, just a computer and software to mix , rip, cut, chop, tracks.
I have the software virtual dj but i dont have any turntables or anything and i was wondering what was the best starter package for someone like me! thanks for the help!
I was wondering if anyone knew how I can record the mixes I do and transfer them onto a cd. Is there a certain machine I need for that? If so..what? how much? where can I get it?
also if you know any good quality dj mixing software that can communicate with cd turntables please let me know.
I’ve already looked at the IDJ2
A turntable is basically what i want so i can play around with it!
But what actually comes in a set. What should it include? Any suggestions on where I can find all this?
I’m 13 years old and I want to become a DJ. I’ve used programs like FL Studio and Deckadance and have fooled around with them. I’ve never touched any real DJ equipment though. Where do I start to become a DJ? I have almost no experience. I’m not quite sure my parents would approve of shelling out $3000 for turntables and mixers (I have no idea what those are other than DJs use them). Maybe a software DJ is a the way to start out. I should stop asking myself the questions when I came here for answers. Any ideas?

why does some dj;s use laptops with them? what would be a good set of tables for a biggener?
Yeah, I want to DJ because it looks fun 
Does anybody have tips for DJing? And what turntable should I buy that’s $100-$400 (I only want to use turntables because it’s like the main equipment for DJing)?
^In that video is only a turntable required for that? And do you just pop a cd into it and remix it? Sorry I’m new 
Thanks.
i have no idea where to start
i have no gear or software, tho i could download the software
i came upon virtual dj online and im thinking of getting it to practice with, has anyone had experience with this program
also…
if i were to get turntables and what not where would i get them from
im guesing its not available at bestbuy style stores?
… yea so whr should i start???
ok so a lil background, i really enjoy listening to scratching and watching dj’s do it, not just the noise but mixing beats and songs all while playing not making beats then listening to them on my computer, although a pc connection would be cool but not needed. i wanna pull back on a record and use my crossfader and volume control knobs and well i think u get it =]
ok so i have a budget of $250 for 1 turntable, ill get a second one after if i get more into it or if i just get the money and im still haveing fun with it. and another $250 for a mixer. but i would rather my whole set be around 400 not 500.
i’ve researched a bit and im looking at either a gemini TT2000 or a similar numark but i’ve come to understand that numark is a newer company and possibly has … lest tested… equipment, i dont wanna waste my time with junk so if a $150 TT is junk and $230 is better thanks for the advice.
im a total beginner and like i said just wanna get into this, so can anyone help me out on what kind of equipment i should get, or what are important specs, ik direct drive is important for scratching more then mixing, and that i need a slippad. are there any other upgrades i shoudl get possibly a better crossfader. ok ima stop talking thanks for any help guys and gals. o and any sites would be nice i’ve been googling but insider knowledge would be alot better.
i use software called virtual DJ. I want to use my software, but have analog tables/mixer that mix whats running on my virtual DJ. sounds f’d. get it?? thx
I want to start creating mixes with mp3s, and DJing from my laptop, and making my own music. Programs like fruity loops and adobe audacity seem like they are over my head, what should I try what equipment should I buy? I think I need some sort of mp3 editing software, a digital turntable, am I on the right track?
give me prices and sites to find these things, and what wires id need to hook it up, not looking to spend a lot, plus i think id need a program on my comp too…any package deals online?
i’m buying a direct drive, not a belt, ….i have done a lot of research and already know pretty much how to use a mixer and turntables to dj trance…but like i said i’m wondering about whats better for the turntable arm…
everything on a laptop. If via laptop, what kind would you recommend and what software(s)? I will have to start networking and offering my services for free at first but I want to look legit and have good enough equipment so I can market myself and get gigs. Any advice? Thanks. (I have stellar taste in music and know a whoollllle lot so that wont be a problem!)
i am thinking anbout getting into djing. the funny thing is i dont know the first thing to a dj. i mean i have seen on sites dj turntables and mixers but do u only need turntables and mixer or more? if more what else? and how do you know if your getting a good one or not i have seen turntables for 2000 and some for 200 what makes teh difference? and also how do i learn i mean there are dj schools in toronto but where and how much does it cost. i am 16 by the way so i am an early starter. i got inspired by my frend who works at a nightclub has a perminent job there 2 nights a week and gets 3-4 grands a month and just graduated highschool. so he sealed teh deal for me to lookinto djing. and also is that a realistic figure or he just exagerated. he works 2 nights dont know how many hours and says he gets paid more for special events and gets taht much money cause he dosent host birthday parrties but has a perminent job at a club. do clubs pay more? how much u think clubs pay be realistic
im into house music and beats rather tahn mixing songs and stuff. my fav dj in the world is teisto and im gunna go to vancouver to see him. dont put me down please i just need sum help. and 16 .
what skills do u need to take the music mixing to the next level? the guy i know doesnt talk to ppl bout his job only tells about the good money and how much chiks he gets.
i can afford teh equipments my parents are financially fit i just neeed proper info on my original question.
