I'll come right out and say it.. in your opinion, are CDJs worth shelling out for?
I've had a really old set of bottom-of-the-line Numark CD players and a mixer for yonks, so I'm not a complete beginner (although the pitch control on the CD players is prone to drifting and can make things difficult).
Have messed about for ages playing at the odd friend's party etc (forgiving crowds) and not put any effort into playing out, but now want to do it. I only want to use hardware in bars/clubs so would like to get to grips with industry standard gear.
Is it honestly worth paying the Pioneer tax to do this? Would much prefer to use USB/Rekordbox than muck around with CDs, which rules out 800s and 1000s.. other models are much harder to find a deal on.
In short... will it cause me problems if I'm unfamiliar with CDJs? All help gratefully received....
