exchanging my S4... CDJ900's and maybe TSP or Serato best price??

So i decided the S4 wasn't right for me finally. The CDJ900 option wasnt in the picture at first but my dad is in a jolly mood this year and knows im going through tough financial times and that this would be the best for me as i will be doing club gigs . So he's giving me 1600 and the other 900 from my traktor will go towards 2 cdj900's. my question is guitar center says i can't use dj deals for a pricematch or amazon (even though amazon is an authorized reseller) does anyone know of any good deals on the cdj 900's that i could get away with on a price match at guitar center? i might just have to buy one at guitar center and the other on the internet to save the extra 150-200 bucks. In january i will be added either serato or traktor scratch pro ( or whatever the new release is ) to my setup as well and hopefully getting a different mixer than my vestax.


Thanks,
Ian

Wait until after NAMM, new gear is going to be shown. CDJ-900 are last year technology, and im sure Pioneer will be coming out with something new.

i doubt it

doubt there'll be new CDJs this year.

yea i have gigs coming up. can't really wait and i do think its unlikely new stuff will come out from them this year. they only want to have 2 products in there higher end line so i've been told. i wouldn't be suprised about later in the year though

interesting - moving AWAY from the s4. may i ask why?

im looking to move away from my 2x cdj400s and djm400. i find i mostly use the apc40 with minor adjustments on the cdjs, so s4 looks like a move in the right direction for me - more direct control over effects in a centered location.

so, what is making you think otherwise?

Just wait, I have a feeling that Pioneer is going to jump into the controller/media market and its going stir things up.

^yeah there have been some pretty heavy whispers of a pio controller of late. There wont be another cdj but pretty certain there will be at least plans of a digital interface being released.
All speculative of course but with rekordbox coming out with every new cdj they're obviously trying to catch up. And who wouldn't jump on a controller 100% compatible to a pre existing club system.

The main reason I say wait is cuz the price might come down. but if you have gigs lined up, I would even look into renting or borrowing gear from a friend or fellow dj.

PM sent.

thanks guys... ya no to the denon otherwise i woulda kept the s4. cdj's because it is good practice for the clubs. a pioneer controller would be nice ... the cdj900 works with serato as a controller so i should be fine in the long run. i think the controller will just be the same minus the cd decks anyways and cheaper but i have been wanted to do this for a while don't think i am going to turn back now. we will see tho. i got them at gc for 1070 each so i am pretty happy about that.

hmmm... a pioneer midi controller... could be interesting... im usually not too big on pioneer, but there new 900's and 2000's are VERY nice for what they are... although i still think there ridiculously overpriced... a midi controller with like the cdj400 platters, a 4 chan mixer that doubles as analogue, with a built in sound card and a full effects control section... hmmm, cant wait to see what namm brings... and i cant wait to go to musikmesse 2011!!! WHOOP WHOOP...

ill be worse than a kid in a candystore
