what gear?!

[DvlsAdvct]

Well, I'm iffy on internal sound cards. I'd rather have an external, to be honest. A lot of the discussions I have, though, revolve around people wanting all-in-one solutions. If that's for you then go for it. The VCI-300, though, can be used in Traktor but is made for Serato Itch. I don't like Serato, so it's not an option for me.

The Zero8 is almost a mixing board, for all of the stuff you get out of it. I'd think you'd be better off getting the Xone:4d than the Zero8.

The Stanton SC System is the controller system to beat. Or, just wait for the EKS Otus to come out, and buy one of those and the Raw. That'd be pretty sick.

The Otus is a pretty decent unit, so that doesnt make it a bad choice. If you want to get into scratching though note that this unit doesnt have a motorized jog.

I think the Xone3d is overrated, overhyped, overkill of a controller/mixer combo. There's still some major petpeeves on the controllerpart of the xone3d.
However if you want to dish out that many cash, better use it to buy the xone4d. (Even though that it still has got its flaws).

If you want great hybrid MIDI/mixer, then opt for the Ecler Evo5 or Korg Zero8.
The rest, MacBook, Stanton Pro DJ3000 and Traktor 3, I like!

mac pro those things are expensive as hell
go for like a hp or dell laptop good for less money
vci-300 looks like a good choice
try out the exponent from m audio u'll like it if u looking at the vci
a v1000 b52 speaker set up is great.... << saves u money

really think about what your buying and test it out first.. to see if u like it... I was like you 6 months ago.. then I just when crazy and bought the gear I wanted.. don't regret it..

yeah whatever you do dont buy a Zone mixer, talk about over-rated, over-priced piles of trash

Digital all the way baby yeah !
