Hi guys,
I want to get into laptop DJing, and I need some equipment. I have very basic experience mixing CDs, but I have all my music on my computer now and I really want to use my laptop.
I've looked briefly at Traktor Duo and Serato Itch, but not enough to really get a feel for which one I like better, although they seem very similar. Which program is best in terms of managing large music collections and finding songs quickly?
I also need a all in one controller that will seamlessly integrate with the software. I will be doing mostly mixing and playing around with looping, scratching etc., but I won't be using a ton of effects etc.
I stopped by Guitar Center the other day and the salesman really recommended the Numark Mixdeck. I like it because of its versatility, and it seems to have everything that I need. However, after reading this I became slightly hesitant due to concerns about Numark quality.
The author of that post mentions the Vestax VCI-300 as a better alternative. Although more expensive and with less features. Is it a better product than the Mixdeck?
Any input on software and hardware choice here is greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys!
