    Nothing much. Little wet behind the ears, most likely due to just returning from swimming 😀

    Welcome to the forums. The general idea behind the Introduce Yourself forum is to tell us a bit more about yourself. Things like:
    * where are you from
    * whats your age
    * are you a boy or a girl
    * what kind of DJ are you/are you inspiring to be
    * what if any is your favorite genre
    * what kind of gear are you using

    You know, like an introduction 😛

    Hey there vintage. I’ve seen lots of your posts before. I’m a younger guy from California. I got lots of younger friends so some people still kind of view me as a kid(not the best for gigs). I also have older friends too though in their 20’s in stuff. Kind of trying to build the mature reputation since I’m kind of stuck in the middle as a teen. I like playing lots of EDM at home but people on the west coast kind of dismiss music they don’t know or aren’t used to so I’ll be playing more pop music and stuff at parties. I started DJing about a year ago just messing around with Traktor on mobile and had a blast. Then I started laptop DJing with a software called Mixxx and then also started trying Traktor LE and VDJ LE. Right now I’ve been mixing with a Denon DJ MC2000 (highly praised by Phil). It’s an excellent piece of gear compared to my first Vestax VCI 100 Which had no sound card and endless mapping problems. I run Serato DJ Intro which seems to be enough to get by compared to the other free softwares. I went to serato because of its reputation as a stable software. It’s also very popular with DJ’s in my area(lots of them use numark). For headphones I’ve been using Pioneer HDJ 500’s which I like pretty well. I’m always reading up on new stuff though. Other than that just trying to keep on track with mixing and keeping my mixes exciting.

    +1 on the MC2000. Denon is an awesome brand that unfortunately got snowed under by the marketing machine that is Pioneer 🙂

    If you want full featured software, but don’t want to pay top dollar, you might want to check out Mixvibes Cross. At 49 Euro/Dollar it’s a pretty good bargain.

    Thanks for the real introduction and again: welcome to the forums!
