Looking for specific gear advice for a club (£1000 Budget)

Hi, I am new here (a lurker though!) and just wanted to say thank you all for the advice I have gathered from you lot! It has been very helpful.

Now, I am in need of some gear advice, I have an established night at a club but I am tired of using the broken and generally garbage gear they have so I am investing in my own to bring to and from the club.

I mostly run of CD and USB so I am in need of a controller or decks that can use both of these functions, I was looking at the XDJ-R1 however the interface seems a bit old and rubbish (You can’t sort by BPM!) So some advice would be great, budget is around £1000 and I don’t mind used.

Thank You!

Take some time to rip the CDs and import them into your collection (filenames, tags, etc) so you can ditch them for good. Especially if they’re not originals.
Then buy a secondhand XDJ-RX or MCX8000 (that could be in your budget). Or get two CDJs if the club has a decent mixer.
