Check Amazon, the RedWaves are from $70 to $90 there, then buy Traktor Pro 2, or download Serato Intro. People don’t tend to listen me in this but whatever I’m just gonna throw it out there, my controller is the Behringer BCD3000, its and old controller but it works fine, does the job, and does it well, it comes with traktor LE. Just sayin… If not get the MixtrackPro and buy Traktor Pro2.

Mixtrack Pro switched VDJ for Traktor LE I believe, and now is supported by Serato Intro which are much better options than Virtual DJ. Get the Mixtrack Pro. Seriously, you can’t get any acceptable headphones for less than $60. Mine cost around that price which are the American Audio HP700, Ive had them for a month and they work fine. The Numark RedWave cost less than $70 and are pretty good actually, bro trust me, don’t get any cheaper headphones, your sound quality will be horrible and they won’t last you 2 days, first because you’ll want to smash them because they suck, and second because they will probably break. Don’t get headphones cheaper than $60.

Don’t go minimalist unless you pay the good ones like the Faderfox maybe, if you’re in it for good, go better. If it’s for fun, go for it, a waste of money in my opinion, those small controllers won’t help you learn to mix, or even mix.. properly at least.

Truly don’t buy the tiny controller units like the DJ Tech Duo and all of those, unless you’re it in for fun. Maybe the smallest you could go is the Hercules MK4

ALEX, the Native Instruments Kontrol S2 is a great controller which cost around $700, it was recently lowered to $399 for a short period of time, buy this one now, it comes with Traktor Pro 2 which is a GREAT software for mixing, just get the s2 and some headphones like the Numark RedWave which are cheap and this will cost you around $450. And you will have a good setup.

Still don’t know, I believe in a couple of months, If you want to start NOW. You could buy the mixtrack pro which is around 200euros, but that’s your entire budget, so my opinion, get the Behringer BCD3000 and some nice headphones. Headphones is something you should never go cheap, because they will last you only a couple of days, get a good pair of headphones.

Check them out, Behringer’s new controllers look promising but NO ONE has had an actual go with these controllers. I would recommend getting the behringer BCD3000 for you to save a buck, use your keyboard an map it to do the other functions, get some headphones worth buying, Numark RedWave seem nice and cheap. No, when I mean learn the software I mean mix with your mouse and keyboard and see if you like the software, if not check out VirtualDJ which is good for beginners. Exactly, pair up with your pals, TRUST ME, its the best, that is what I do.
