Hi,
I’m new to it all too. I borrowed a mate’s laptop with Traktor on there about 6 months ago, played around wit it, liked it, bought my own Traktor software, practised A LOT, begged a good mate of mine to let me do a guest mix on his radio show (knowing they have Traktor available in the studio). Now I am joint host of the show. Got myself a Numark Mixtrack Pro3 about 5 weeks back, played my first club gig last night, absolutely loved it. It helps when you’ve got a lot of friends who are DJ’s and promoters but if you want something bad enough and you have a passion for it, then go for it. Good luck
