    I would suggest to you that you need to get Phil’s course. This is not an advertisement and I am not a paid endorser. But honestly, you are the prime candidate to get the most out of his experience. For example, if I were to suggest to you that you can be a pro with a Mixtrack Pro and VDJ it would be simply because of what I understand or expect from a “pro” with that equipment and mine and your definitions don’t match. Perhaps you’re wanting to get something with four decks, midi boarding, etc.

    I guess what I am saying is that if I were in your shoes, getting ready to drop about a grand in a purchase the $50 of Phil’s course to get you started, not only for your gear but also for DJing in general, is a very very wise investment.

    I’d agree with Nicko. I understand that you only want to go through the purchase process once, but what can often happen is that your first controller and software will often teach you what you REALLY need. And often it’s not those bits of kit. And that’s fine, it’s all part of the process and doesn’t need to be expensive.
    I’d say do the course, do your research on what controller/software combos feels right, make a short list, and then purchase second hand. The if you want to upgrade, or try something else, you’re not losing a ton of money on the resale.
    If you read the threads in the showcase section of DJ forums, the one consistent thing you notice is that people rarely keep the gear they start with.
    Good luck and have fun!
