SourceRaver Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 What can I use as my first Dj set up and how can I expand it later?The diagram below shows some common pathways that a beginner DJ can take to establish and expand their DJ system. This is a link for a better view: Here(Note: All the equipment/software systems below allow for realistic Dj mixing unless noted) Quote

SourceRaver Posted November 2, 2012 Author Posted November 2, 2012 Nek minut: "which setup should a beginner choose" flowchart please.Thats going to be a real challenge as there are so many factors that can potentially affect it:Budget?Existing equipment?Existing music library (vinyl, CD or MP3)?Digital native or tourist?Level of motivation?Personal Goals?Have to think about that one...

overit Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Have to think about that one...would start like this, apologies is just text, but just to get started:1)Do you want to be a turntablist (i.e. scratching and juggling)Yes = you need turntables but can still use DVS. No = go to 22) Do you want the organic sound of vinyl?Yes = you need real vinyl on real turntablesNo = go to 33) Do you want to play venues?Yes = you prob want to use pioneer CDJs so you are familiar with what most venues haveNo = go to 44) Have you considered a controller?Yes = start flame warNo = start flame waragreed: tricky flowchart is tricky flowchart Quote
