First of Really really good site, good job.
Second, my question: if I buy a turntables, could I use CDs on it to do scratch or to mix music or that only works for vinyl. If so is there any turntable for CDs only, or is there a cd to vinyl burner or something? Im sorry, I know my question is really dumb, ill wait your answers while listening to some of the djs mix in here. Thats an example of turntable I would like to have

Turntables are for vinyl only, though you can buy "CD Turntables" such as the Pioneer CDJ range that will enable you to mix and scratch songs from a CD.
Hope this was helpful, Jay |

| ok cool thanks, do you think turnable CD worth the price or a normal dj mixer without turnable cd will do the job (for an average dj) |
|
|
| Anyways |
| oh and btw do you know if cd mixers works with mp3 players like an iPod or a atrac3 player like the sony nw-hd1? like is there a jack where you can put those or something instead of a cd? |

It depends, different people prefer different things, I personally find mixing with CD's is easier, but it is more expensive to buy CD Djing equipment, but you'll save money in the long run because you wont have to buy vinyls.
Look around in stores that sell DJ equipment, explain to the staff you're a beginner and you want to start mixing, then you can have a look at the various equipment, just dont part with your money on something you're not sure about buying, to start, you'll need two turntables or CD players, a mixer, headphones and Hi-Fi equipment to hear the racket you're making...
Good Luck |

| As for the last question, no but you can buy DJ software for your computer that will allow you to mix with MP3's or if you end up with Turntables you can buy specialist equipment (look at Stanton Finalscratch) that can allow you to control and mix Mp3's from your turntable like you were using vinyl... |
