What do I need to start DJ'ing?

Hey,

I'm currently very busy with creating my own music and stuff with programs like fruity, but I know almost all of the program now and I want more...! Have currently plans to put some money in it, but I dunno what I should buy to have a quite complete set to mix numbers and/or creating my own music. Could anyone give me some advise? Ty!

2 turntables & a mixer & a cdplayer to play ur own creations.

For producing hardware, check the production forum

OR... 2 cd players & a mixer (i am thinking that since you are creating tunes on your own you would be burning them onto cd's to play them!)

yea i know, but since people who only have cdj's (or something like it) probably never buy their music anyway, i try to get people to buying turntables

i actually find it easier using turntables as opposed to cdj's..

plus it will give you the kick up the arse to get one of your tracks on wax! but yeah, get a cdj as well as tt's as it might be a while before you get anything on vinyl

Get a mixer, 2 turntables and Final Scratch. With Final Scratch you cna play your own productions (and others too tho) directly on your turntable from your computer.

In order to start DJing, you need a fake ID.
