    Default Tired of s4 - Wanna get started with (timecode) vinyl! Any advice?

    So i've been dj-ing for a while now. Running traktor and an s4. I don't have alot of money to spend but i really want to start using timecode vinyl. I plan on just using my s4 as a mixer and running two tables with timecode. Anyone have any suggestions on decent turntables/timecode that wont break the bank? I mainly wanna start with vinyl to work on tunrtablelism(sp?) skills. The clubs i dj at dont really have room for anything more then an s4 and it works great but i just am looking for smth to work on scratching/juggling etc. for fun in my spare time. (and if i can gig with them then great).
    Thanks!

    +1 - you can faf about looking at vestax and numark and others but technics are the standard for 1 reason - they are the best. Mixing with cheap turntables is a waste of time. shop around and bide your time. Ive bought technics for £99 each in the past. You can get some battered old ones and get them serviced for around £40

    Agreed with everyone above. Technics are the way to go.

    1 Sell the S4.

    2 Get some wheels of steel and a propper mixer and learn for real.

    3 Get gigs.

    4 Get lots of foxy babe groupies and have sex in the toilets of the clubs.

    5 Get massive ego... then you are finally a proppa DJ.
