Thank you all for giving your time. I will wait untill mcx8000 comes to India 🙂

i am just scratching my head.. controller or xdj 🙁 can i opt for other denon players??

hi Vintage thanks for asking this, buying a controller will cost same when i add a mac pro or any other high end laptop. i have used numark pro2 for more than a year and dont want to be a controller guy anymore. after using controller it was first time i played on cdj2000s and i thought controller is nothing in front of the cdj. i dont get that feel of djing on a controller. Thank You.

hi Terry, i dont have any other option left, being honest, i am applying for a loan from bank for these. so new players and old mixers. prefering pioneer 4 chanel mixers coz of color effects mainly. if there are any other mixers which costs less than these and does the same job please advice me about it. Thank You.

hi Todd. I have been in this scene more than 3 years. I have used Numark pro2 for a long time. I took djing classes and its been 20 months now. i am pushing myself a step ahead by investing, More for practice at home and less for taking these out for gigs. other plan i have is i will give these for rent and i will get my money to pay the emi every month. Please advice if i am taking a wrong step. Thank YOu.

thanks. is it possible that i copy rb data from current installed path and paste it in new disk by installing rb in new disk?

Thank You. Dj Vintage and Terry for the advice, this is very helpful for me.

Over time, I got beatmatching down. 32 beats, then 64 beats, 128 beats, and so on. I also started growing in my musical tastes as I was exposed to more of the global scene. In 1992 my main influences were old Bad Boy Bill mixtapes and the DJs like Bill on the radio. 1994 I turned 21 and was exposed to deep house and underground house. Time passed and I was exposed to trance and so on.

I also took on different gigs to understand and figure out my focus. I played one wedding and realized mobile isn’t my thing. I played some clubs, bars, and raves. I was resident in one mainstream suburban club. I also tried online radio and podcasts, as well as production. In the end, I found that I wanted to play music I believed in, reach out to those who are normally spoon-fed mainstream pop. I also found that I grew to hate the politics of the club scene, and driving hours to play 30-60 min wasn’t fun…so I ended up staying a hobbyist and blogger.

That was a journey that went over 16 years. I would just tell you right now to learn the basics of being a DJ, listen to and find what styles of music you really like and believe in, and then go out and about and see what kinds of places/events you want to play at. You can learn much in the blog here on how to get to point B.
