Mitch Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Depends on what your budget is, what you want to get out of DJing, what type of DJing you want to do.Some basic questions to answer that will help us determine what will best suit you are:Budget?What do you want to get out of DJing (e.g. just muck around in bedroom, house parties, weddings, clubs etc.)?What type of Djing do you want to (Scratch DJ, club mixing, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robsta Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 S4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 S4 is obviously a better controller as is it is pro level where the mixtrack is a beginner level, but he hasn't told us how much he wants to spend yet so its hard to recommend anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly11 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Iv got a budget of £200 pound saved at the minute. However I can buy a controller on finance and pay it off. I'm only a beginner and still learning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 200 pounds is close enough to $298AUD for people reading this, so call it $300.There is a mixtrack pro review thread here - viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6655&hilit=mixtrack+proYou can read imadje's, myself, among others opinions about it.It is decent to learn on, was my first Dj setup. However found i wanted to upgrade after a few months, and now i don't use it at all.If you have never DJ'ed before, it is also a cheap and easy way to see if you like it or not before spending too much money on it. However if you already have some experience and know your going to get into it, you could spend a bit more money and get something a bit more advanced. The Traktor S4 that Robsta mentioned is a excellent pro level controller that you wouldn't need to upgrade from, however is up over the $1000AUD mark, well above your budget.There is also alot of controllers between these two, these are pretty much both extremes. Can't personally recommend any others though as i have no experience with them.End of the day, mixtrack pro is a cheap easy way to get into DJing on a tight budget and good value for money, but if you want to spend more there are better controllers around.
