I’ve looked on the mixvibes website and they don’t have the Gemini g2v on there (although the do have a couple lower end Gemini controllers on there).

That’s a smart thing to do. Don’t be a show-off

Terry and rizki covered everything but the only point I have to add is that this past weekend I actually went to a gig with a friend of mine (much older dj who’s been doing it for years) who had a set up of cdj 800s and a pioneer mixer. I could not see him do anything that couldn’t be done on a controller. Additionally with a controller he wouldn’t have to carry this heavy flight case around for them. With your budget you could get a really good controller and still have money left over. Appearances only count for so much when your back locks up from carrying cdjs up a flight of stairs.

The way I’ve come to understand crowds is that they won’t care how the next song is brought it. They only care what that next song is. While i would never play like the guy did in your story, that’s how it was before mixers were a thing that everyone had. It would be the guy with a turntable, a microphone, and the most records doing your wedding.

Since you said that you have all your pc audio running through the mixtrack (I did that for a while too) or might be that you are having conflict with the sound card. Did you install any new programs recently?

I’ve actually done this with the built-in mic input on my computer and my Mixtrack Pro. You have to go into the settings and under sound settings, under input, select Advanced Config. Add your controller’s out puts as audio channel 1&2 and your computer’s built in sound card as the microphone input. You may have to play around for which output will be headphones (mine was output 3&4). If it works I would recommend mapping a keyboard button to toggle_mic because it can get annoying if you leave it on accidentally.
