New DJ

hey guys im new to this website and starting DJing and i was wondering whats a good mixer to get? thanks :D

You undoubtable be asked how much, and what you want from it, 2 channel, 3 channel, 4 channel. Effects or bad ass filters, or portability. Then you will basically get 3 answers: A pioneer 700, 800, 900, A Xone 32, 42, etc, Ecler nuo 2.0 3.0.

there are so many out there, it depends what you want to do with it..

- how much do you have to spend on it?
- what do you want to do with it?? i mean other than mix do you want fx onboard or are you happy with just a straight mixer.

the very least you should get something with the basic 3 eq's per channel.

i like my mixers old school...

* Start by figuring out your goal, if nothing else a short term goal:
- what kind of music
- where are you going to play
- what do you want to achieve, what kind of DJ do you want to be

Based on that's it's much, much easier to give advice.

hey man thanks but those are ALOT of money haha what about this one is it good?

What's your budget?
WHat elese do you have? CD Player? TT? Dj Software?

Back in the days, it was easy... but now...

That mixer: No. You want Low/Mid/High EQ.
