Reply to Some general questions

I am, eventually, going to buy some real turntables (Direct Drive) and a mixer. I am not sure though how much i should save up, what i should buy, what will last, what my budget should be(redundant i know).

Any ideas?

I am not sure which style I will be mixing yet, i have just started. But i would like something that i could use for both scratching and for general mixing, so i can get a taste of both worlds.

Any help would be appreciated!

thanks
