Which DJ Gear should I get?

[mdcdesign]

is there a good mapping available for the terminal mix 2?

My TM4 one MIGHT work on the TM2; failing that you could always re-map it yourself, or load my mapping in and re-learn the controls. It'd be pretty easy to do as I can document everything for you

ok thanks for the advice mate but how about the vestax vci 100 or 100 mk2. it's about the same price, the 100 would cost 350€ and the mk2 370€

It's okay, build-quality wise (about the same as the Reloop stuff), but REALLY basic. Not much more of a step up than a Mixtrack Pro or one of the Hercules controllers tbh. You don't get a loop encoder or a move/beatjump encoder, tempo faders are really short, jogwheel resolution is WAY lower (I'm pretty sure they're quite a bit smaller, as well... the TM2's ones are about 6 inches wide), no rotary encoder for track selection, and it lacks balanced ouputs. It also only comes with Serato DJ Intro, whereas the TM2 now comes with the full Serato DJ & VJ plugin.

You can get a used VCI 100 Mk1 for around €100-120.

If you don't need jogwheels, it'd pick for that price a Novation Twitch, you'll have a lot of fun!! If you do need jogwheels, then Stanton DJC4 or Denon MC3000, both are great controllers with a lot of buttons (they're more "classical" than the Twitch). The downside of the three controllers is that no one of them come with Traktor (maybe the Denon, but I don't know). However, Itch is also a very good software and the Virtual DJ edition of the DJC4 and the MC3000 are great for beginners, after that you can get an upgrade to traktor!

Ahhh The Beatmix is kinda like a Virtual DJ version of the DDJ-WeGo... not a bad little unit

Hey man, I would go with a Pioneer deck if you can find a good deal

I now used it about a year and I'm really happy with that Controller. I made my own Traktor Mapping and bought a LPD8 to controll my Cue Points and Effects.

At the Moment, that's all I need, but if I got some more money, I will upgrade to a S4 or buy some used CDJs.
