    I think you should decide which DJ software you want to use. THEN decide on the best beginner controller for that software.

    Personally I would never buy it and rather go for used CDJ's for that amount of money. What do you think of this one?
    I think the Pioneer is better value for money personally if you are in that $ ballpark

    Thanks so far guys! Alot of things to consider....
    I guess i will just have to go with whatever software wise. Are there any drastic differences?

    Heres a question. If i got the ns6 or the new pioneer ddj sx, would they work well for parties, clubs etc? Also do they have to used with a laptop to work? For example, if the laptop crashed, could i just use a usb drive with songs on to dj?
    I've spent hours reading various sites etc and am no nearer to deciding on what to get. I keep seeing conflicting opinions all the time. Very confusing and overwhelming :s
    Didn't think it would be so hard to choose ahhhh

    Looks pretty cool does that aero. Don't really like the idea of relying on an internet connection though. Anyone used it? Thoughts?

    It looks a little toy-ish to me but for total beginner it should serve well I guess.

    It's cheaper to get an ns6 which so far is winning for my choice of dj equipment. Gunna wait for reviews of the ddj sx first though.

    I only suggested aero because you mention laptop crash scenario and that controller can dig it.

    Good luck on your further path mate!
