This video is dedicated to all the upcoming DJs who have been messaging me to post my opinion on what equipment to start out with.
I hope this video is relatively self explanatory and helpful.
Here are some websites to look at when purchasing equipment.

  • what excactley is wrong with virtual dj? i use it and i find it perfectly ok

  • @ROBRECHTDGK

    the wave forms are very off. Also, the sync button only makes the computer mix the music based on digital pulses - meaning they won't actually be beat matched, they will just follow the same pulse beats. BPM is very off on occasional tracks, interface is difficult, etc. I just didn't enjoy using VDJ when i had it. Its my personal preference though

  • What sort of speakers do you recommend?

  • @therobow09

    i recommend powered speakers - that way you dont need to bring an external amp. I recommend something (that is cheap) Tapco Thumps. I use them for parties with around 100 or less people.

  • How much money do I need bc I 1000 can it get what I need 4 now?

  • @DJABUZE1

    yes, $1,000 can you get you good equipment with the proper investing

    Remember, you need a mixer, either 2 CD players or turnables.

    External equipment, such as speakers, facades, lights, etc are more expensive and will require at least another $500-$1,000

see all
