MemberI suggest not buying it…is buying Ableton, a solution to earn money with it? There are millions of music-producers outthere, who are 1000x much better in creating music…but don’t earn a penny. If you want to earn money with music, go mobile-dj’ing or something.

MemberAnd if you nail the main midi-controls to some keyboard-keys of your laptop, use buildin-automatic mixing…who needs a controller?
Discovideo
MemberMobile or not…it isn’t a problem to carry thousands of digitals tracks with you, the question is how many will you ever play of them eventually
Discovideo
MemberLooking at the future of internet, i think you better invest in positive reviews and active references…if you don’t, you will get overruled by your opponents.

MemberHe, i like your stuff…excellent and perfect work…
But besides that, an answer to your frustation.
Becoming popular with music is like playing the casino.
Hard work doesn’t always (never) pay.
Music doesn’t has the same value, like it did decades ago.
There’s tons of music and mixes published every second.
Music has become a throw-away-product.
You spend hours on mixing this track (i suppose), you may be lucky if someone listens to it from start till end.
You have to learn to sell yourself, and sell stuff others like, not what you like.
Do you want to start a store with products that nobody wants? No…
So you have to make music that’s liked by the majority….commercial.
If you don’t sell anything….you shop will close.
If you don’t publish commercial music, you’re out…if you like it or not.
If you want an audience that listens to you or want make money with music?
Get offline, stop waisting time, become a resident-dj or a mobile-dj.

MemberI guess it’s not good for your wallet in the end to buy stuff, if you don’t know what’s it’s purpose.

MemberThe cause of decline? Big ego dj’s with bad or to serious music. They push their own favourites with a narrowminded vision, and don’t care about what the audience actually wants. A dj is not a star on a pedestal, he has to be humble.
The audience wants fun…nothing more or less.Discovideo
MemberWatch out with “watts”…a high wattage doesn’t always mean a high output (especially with cheaper brands). Check the “SPL” (Sound Pressure Level) in dB, this is more accurate.

MemberWhich impedance…don’t forget to mention it.

MemberFinally the purchases, it all depends on the first question:
What kind of dj do you want to be? Mobile with a soundsystem, only club-dj, producer,….Discovideo
MemberSo, after you read this long monologue of mine, what do you think should beginners spend a hell of money or not?
I advice you not to do that. Work hard and save your money. You don’t need expensive stuff to be a good DJ.

MemberWhat’s the use of the other +1000 tracks, you’ll never play or nobody wants. Focus on a quality, slim collection.

MemberHi, if 2 tracks don’t actually mix smooth, why not consider a sudden cut at a nice cuepoint.
