Recommended Starter DJ Sets
|
To start out there
are great DJ packages that come with all you need to start mixing. They
have 2 CD players or vinyl turntables, a mixer for managing the music,
headphones, and all the cables necessary for setting up. The big choice
you must make is if you want a CD or Turntable system.
CD systems have gained popularity lately
because they are easy to use, they have great digital outs for using
with computers, and you save money by burning and using CDR with MP3s
instead of buying costly vinyl albums. However many faithful Vinyl
DJs remain because the Vinyl sound quality is very good, you can
scratch - manipulate the music physically, and the Vinyl industry has
significant cool factor.
