Reply to Total Noobie... Need Advice.

Hey All,

I really want to get into DJing edm/electro music. I have no clue as to what gear to buy.

I would like to go all digital, no CDs. Does that mean I am going with a controller?

I hear Serato Scratch Live is what a lot of big names are using. Any other reasons not to use it?

I will be using my desktop for my computer for now. If I decide to go further, I plan on getting a MacBook. Is it true Macs put out better sound quality than a PC? I am a PC guy at heart, but I don't mind using a Mac for DJing.

I will be using my tower speakers that is powered by a receiver for now as well. I got a pair of noise cancelling headphones already.

Pretty much the only thing I want to buy now is the controller. Budget is under $1000. Does the rule, you get what you pay for apply here?

Thanks for any help!
