how much $$$ do you want to put into this? if it something you might not stick with it could be a huge wast of money
Bender2591
naa it wont be a waste of money i just wanna no wat im buying is the rite thing lol
djwright
do you prefer CD or records?
Bender2591
it dosent really matter to me
djwright
i would suggest CD then.

you get 1 song for 1.25 USD (or less)

records cost much more new and are sometims hard to find

i also suggest CD. You can get almost every track on vinyl on cd now digitally from beatport or audiojelly..not to mention many things not on vinyl yet aswell.

Also matters how much you can spend as said above. You seem still very beginner'ish', so i think you should start off with cheaper cd players and a cheaper mixer therefore when you or if you move on and want ot continue this then you will appreciate your equipment more.

Well help you out, just give us a budget, we wont do all the work for you though. Getting started DJ'ing requires times and practice..and some of that practice and time requires just straight up listening to music and knowing the chords..beats..and what not. Aswell as researching what you want to buy and knowing what the things mean in its specs.On a cd player the most important thing is the pitch settings, ask ANYONE here.

My advise yo:

Dont post 2 vague topics covering the same subject on the same day yo.

You will find TA to be a helpful place, as long as you figure out the "culture" in here yo.

Read the forums yo
Do some research yo
Go to a shop like guitar center and actually touch the equipment
Dont ask broad questions, try and be specific (budget, music you like, etc)

You spin hip hop yo?
