My first controller!

[Superninja]

Hey everyone, since I`ve been into music for a long time, some friends mentioned to try a dj road, since I always thought all controllers and so are very expensive, only now discovered that there are some recent pretty good choices, want your opinions, thinking about max ~270euros, model i`m mostly interested is Pioneer DDJ-SB2 DJ. I`m mostly worried at the momment will I like it, that`s why I don`t want to spend a lot, but still if I won`t try I won`t know, so maybe you can help me to make desicion, a good buy?
Also is there any article windows pc vs apple what advantages,disadvantages it has on dj side?

Apple has been known to be a little more suited for Traktor but you'll be fine either way, my recommendation: second hand S4 MKI, don't like DJ'ing, sell it for practically the same, it has every function you'll need for a long while and above all uses high quality components. You can pick them up for as little as 200E now days.


Edit: I already started to sound like a broken record but now I know why i thought it was such an incredible deal, this price is almost exclusive to the Netherlands. I have no idea why they are so cheap here but on ebay and amazon they go second hand for $500 which is too much IMO.
