starting out to be a dj

starting out to be a dj

hi im just starting out as a dj if ya could offer me some advice on mixing,gigs,tips etc i would really appricaite it also add me as a friend

My advice? Sell that e36 and get an e46 M3 :wink:

First of all you need to give us more info, what computer are you running, o you want to do controllerism or just basic mixing. What is your beget for your gear ?
You need a controller or a mixer or some other equipment, and then you also need software.
I would say try some free ones like mixx i think is free or maybe go get a traktor le if you can.
Then you will need a soundcard but you can use the one in your laptop for now.
My ideal setup in your position would be a traktor kontrol x1 and a mixer.
You would get simple two deck mixing down and then if you want you can add another x1 for four deck and four fx banks control.
Or you could go out and buy a numark mixtrack which is also a good beginners controller and comes with traktor le.

how do you know he has that stuff ??

Clicked his soundcloud link and got to MY dashboard (fix that homie), then clicked his FB link and saw a tracked out e36.

go find some DJ friends and use their equipment. Practice on there stuff. Get an idea of how you want to mix, with or without software, Vinyl, CDJ, Controller. Learn from watching and asking. If possible its a great asset to get on some CDJs, or Vinyl and get the basics of beatmatching and mixing down, so having a dj friend who can help you learn would be a great asset. Gotta walk before you can run.

read the blog, read the blog some more, then read it a little more. When you’re done with that come back with specific questions.

ok for starters i do not own the bmw
and 2nd of all thanks for the advice i think dj software would be alrii for me

will let you kno when i need more advice

ok dude i dont have a laptop yet but will let ya know more

This is the frist that came to my mind when I read this.

My first thoughts exactly… the OP pretty much epitomizes these kind of threads.
