    WOW! thanks for all the feedback guys! never expected that much.

    as for your advice, im going to hold off on the midi fighter for a while to see if i even want it in the future.

    and when it comes to my controller you all have got me leaning towards the s2 but the only thing is is around$400 :/
    because i already need traktor which is $100 not to mention a descent laptop for around $300. so thats $800 dollars right there without even thinking of headphones,speakers,or other things. its just hard to afford these things outof just wanting to dj as a hobby. dont get me wrong i would love to be an amazing dj but im gonna keep my feet on the ground for now and just do it for fun/interest. im just broke atm but i should have some money soon. would i be better off trying to find good deals on used gear? any of you guys have any old gear around going un-used that you could sell me? if so txt me with info 1-9-31-996-1046.

    i wouldnt be able to get in a week. maybe not even a month or two depending on my job and your price but i really want to try this DJing thing out.

    ANY advice for my situation or just tips on DJing be happy to post them for me and others!

    Doesn't the S2 come with a Traktor already?

    Either way, I hear ya man.....it's a lot of money to spend on a hobby if you're just starting out and want to mess around at home a bit. Cheap options:

    1. Used Mixtrack Pro - I've seen them local on Craigslist for 150.00; I've seen license of Traktor on this site go for 50 bucks.
    2. Twitch is on sale here for about 260.00 and comes with Serato Itch; you'll get a free upgrade from Serato to their new Software in a few months and can always use it with Traktor down the road if buy a license.

    Also, try to spend as much as you can on your laptop.

    This is gonna be the first time im recomending this but the Denon MC6000 is it..... standalone 4 channel mixer as well as audio interface and controller. works with serato traktor and vdj. best bang for the buck in your price range and most versatile get good on it then upgrade!!!

    You are talking about an $800 bit in the pocket for this pour guy.
