Just ordered my first bit of kit! What did your first ever setup consist of?

Very first setup I played a party with, probably 1984?, was a cheap very light plastic belt drive turntable (I think it was a Sony), a cheap-ass Radio Shack mixer, and a Pioneer. Pioneer cassette deck, that is! Don't remember what headphones other than I had some, and I didn't know shit about matching beats, I just alternated songs on tape and vinyl throughout the party. Good times!!

1995: Soundlab DLP3's and a soundlab mixer - the one with the big channel cut buttons either side of the crossfader.

Then 1210s in 1996. Sold then in 2008 to a mate. They are still going strong and I've since bought a pair of much newer 1200 mk5s.

I started with a Vestax VCI-100 SE a few months back. Now I got my S2 last week

1983, a pair of 1200s and a cheap Radio Shack mixer.

2 x Stanton T.52's & Stanton M.202. The cheapest Direct drive combo I could afford. Really made me appreciate good gear, though I still appreciate that setup for helping me grasp the fundamentals.

Mixtrack Pro and a Akai LPD8. I used a shoebox for a laptop stand. Had no idea what I was doing. Had so much fun anyway!

Mixtrack pro all the way! Started originally just using VDJ home and my laptop

Panda Board for the DJTT hall of fame!

Traktor kontrol x1 and audio 2 dj
had no idea what i was doing, i fell right into the trap of NI advertisments, checking tutorial vids about the x1 on their website and thinking "yeah i wanna do that"
"mixed" my first 6 months without any kind of mixer, no eqing, just the crossfader using my macbooks trackpad.
i had no idea really, but it was fun and since then i've stepped up my game quite a bit, and the x1 (now 2 of them) are still my all time favorite midi controllers (tested out quite a few)
