When I’m mixing at that moment, I don’t hear any problems in the sound or quality of the mix, but when I listening to the mix I just made. All I get is a lot of popping, skipping,and a very bad play back…. So I’m asking is there a better way I should record my mixes, or use a different program.

    I use Traktor. It has an internal recorder and I don’t have any problems with it.

    Yep, nice transitions. I like most of the tracks, especially the first one. Toward the end you were out of electro, but it doesn’t matter that much.

    P.S. I’d appreciate it if you guys listen to some of my stuff and leave feedback. It would help greatly.

    I’ve seen the kp3 used by a lot of people. I don’t know if you really need it for trance/house though, maybe for live dubstep remixing.

    As for the SCS, I’ve read only good things about it but I’m not sure it fits your needs (“hotcues and such”).

    If it was me, I’d try to look into something like the Kontrol X1 or the new A&H Xone:K2 as a way to combine the effects and the hotcues into one unit. Remember, with the setup that you want, you’ll need 4 USB ports. Also, when you DJ in clubs you’ll usually have very limited space to setup your gear between the CDJs, club’s mixer, etc.

    And I saw that you were thinking about the new Numark N4. Decide on what’s best for you, especially if you’re a beginner. A 4 channel controller might be overkill at this point (since you’re not getting much more than the Mixtrack Pro). Are you really going to use the 2 extra channels?

    I’m still using the Hot Cue buttons at the top for my EQ kills 😛 That’s the default .tsi for my version of TP2. I might switch soon though if I start doing some live remixing.

    So thanks for this!

    It’s just a website/program that lets you broadcast for free and is really easy to use, good Facebook and Twitter support too

    Don’t worry. Keep at it – either modify this mashup until it’s to your liking or start another one and see how you evolve.

    I have the Mixtrack and an Audio 2 DJ. Right now I wish I had more than 2 outputs (from the Audio 2) to broadcast via Mixlr, but otherwise, I really can’t complain. The Mixtrack does its job wonderfully. And I get really low latency from the whole thing. So I would personally recommend this setup.

    I don’t know if you should be worried about the number of USB ports. My laptop only has 3 – so check yours and take this into account.

    It’s really good especially given that it’s your first one!

    You’ll need an soundcard capable of converting the analog output of the turntable into a digital message. This is usually a multi-channel ASIO soundcard or a dedicated external USB or FireWire soundcard.

    So you’ll need an external soundcard if you decide to go with a DVS.
