    That does makes sense. Nothing really in the way of features, was just thinking a newer model was due soon. As im not in a rush to buy one, I thought I might just wait for the upgraded model. Thanks for the reply.

    If your starting out, you could always download Serato intro. Works great with the mixtrack pro, very easy to use and works straight away (no mapping etc).

    Only got one mix so far (my first real mix) , should be adding another very soon. Be great if anyone could listen and give some feedback. Mainly funky/electro house if thats your thing.

    Had nothing but problems with traktor le set up. Downloaded Serato intro and it works first time every time. With Traktor pro it seems to be trouble free for some reason.

    Try typing QTX speakers in ebay. Decent quality for around that price. Ive got an amplified set for monitoring (Β£65), very pleased with them.

    Serato intro, will work first go. Free to download too. Ive sorted my traktor issues now but Serato was incredibly simple to set up.

    in reply to: How Was Your First Gig? #1001850

    First gig went surprisingly well. I was roped into playing the local Social club as a fundraiser for my football team. We thought up an Ibiza night theme (original lol) everyone was in shorts, t-shirts etc and the room had been tarted up a bit too. The club had booked a hypnotist for the early part then I went on around 10pm.

    Basically through facebook and word of mouth the place was rammed, 90% of which were friends of mine which helped. Everyone was hammered when I went on, including myself. We borrowed a local bands PA, and had major probs getting it going but we did right before I was due on. Im not pretending to be a proper DJ or anything and at the time I was using Virtual DJ with a Numark usb mixer.

    Suffice to say to say as soon as I dropped “Black Legend” as my first track, the dancefloor was full all night. We went on til 1am which at that club is unheard of. Had loads of compliments even though I really was winging it big style πŸ˜€

    Happy days and I learned so much that night πŸ™‚
