You can buy a midi controller, or you will need a sound card with 2 seperate outputs and a mixer. Hope this helps.

It took alot of time to get where I am at now, and I am still far from where I want to be. It will probally be the same with you. I started out on software (Traktor Dj) and now I play on cd decks. Some of the software is easy to use cause it does alot for you. What software are you planning on using? There are tutorial sites about djing, but I don't have them bookmarked, so hopefully someone will post a couple in here.

mixing software: I used to mix on VirtualDJ http://www.virtualdj.com/
now i mix on CD.

this software starts in a very basic mode for beginners:


then when you are ready, change skins and have all the features available that you would have on actual CD decks.

here is the skin I use:



with the proper sound card setup you can use headphones to monitor your VirtualDJ mix before it goes live....JUST LIKE A REAL DJ! haha


and guess what....EVERY function is MIDI controllable (external mixing console, etc).

have fun!

Hmm. Didn't know it actually overlayed the waveforms. I guess that could come in handy...

if allyou want to do to is mix mp3s from ur computer, id suggest getting sumthin like the hercules dj console. that will get you through the basics, ul have to buy sum software like tracktor or sumthin to go with it, dont think you get any with it.

will be more hands on that software alone plus you will be able to moniter ur tracks without the need for 2 soundcard as its a soundcard in itself.
