Akio Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I need to upgrade my setup hardcore! I have been mixing for a few years now on crap, and have experience using freinds CDJ1000's, done a couple parties and have good feedback, so please dont assume I need to learn on "small stuff" just help me out with deciding/justifying Spending the doshthat will keep me going for years to come!I prefer to go out and just throw a set down without a computer live. So that brings me to CDJ's with MIDI/HID Support ( as i like to use traktor at home)Im strung between the three! And i have no dj shop close at all to experience them myself, so need to go off your guys opinions! (thats whats making it so hard to choose ! ) CDJ400+DJM400 limited edition pack (comes with hdj1000 and flight case)http://www.djwarehouse.com.au/djgear/dj ... ack-1.htmlPros - Dunno? its a CDJ and everyone seems to like themFlight case woudl be good for doing parties and gigs, etc, comes with new headphones (need an upgrade there to)Cons - I am scared ill be limited to the features of the CDJ400 without a laptop/serato (which i do not want to use live)The DJM has 2 channels, I highly prefer 4 for expandability, so i find the mixer limiting...----------------------------------------------------DNS3700+DNX1100 http://www.djwarehouse.com.au/djgear/dj ... -pack.htmlPros- I hear these are feature packed and not much different to the CDJ900s! 4 channels on mixer! Cons- Im scared itll break/the cue slip iv heard about... and just the fact iv never seen/touched the mixer/decks in my life!Scared of mixer quality??? Scared the Mixer doesnt have enough features!--------------------CDJ900+DJM800http://www.djwarehouse.com.au/djgear/dj ... -pack.htmlPros: new technology, hopefuly should keep me going for years to come!?Mixer is good quality, 4 channels has heaps of effects to get creative with ( i dont like a laptop live remember)Cons: Expensive! No hot cues!thanks guys <3!!Note: I find the CDJ-2000's far to expensive compared to the top three here, so dont consider them a viable option vs features! just seem overkill...

Skank Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 ok bruz the cdj 400 are the shit and have features comin outa the wazzoo but did u think of this2x standard cdj 400s will be $1660 plus a djm700 for 1390 that works out a lil bit cheaper then the limited edition and you get the bonus of a 4 channel mixer with midi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabRat Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I think like skank said, some packages you make yourself work out a bit cheaper. As for cd players hit up the demons. They're very good! If u go pioneer because you're use to your mates then don't settle for less. Go straight for the 1000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mo-c Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 i dont think you really need the 900s or 2000s....the 400s are great, get your self a midi mixer you can use with traktor and youl bee sweet. I dont really think you need to 1000s, they are fkn nice but you can spend less and get midi... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
