Whats your dream Dj Setup?
Posted on: 25.10.2010 by Candy Vardy
Hey guys, well I thought I would make this thread out of curiousity. If you could have any kind of Dj setup no limit in how much $$$ what would you want? For me I dont believe you need a huge expensive setup to be "set" just the good old regular stuff, but going large. Well I would want:

Macbook Pro 15"
2 X Pioneer CDJ 2000's
Pioneer DJM 800
NI Maschine
NI Kontrol X1
Sennheiser Hd 25 ii

= SET!!

Total $$$ = $7860.00 :eek:

Man I believe I've got a hell of alot of saving to do before I get any of that! I just gotta keep dreaming until then, lol. So whars your's guys?

Why do you need Maschine and that MPC? Isn't that redundant? I could see the 500 because it's battery powered, but not the full one.

Anyway

I'm not going to price that lot, but I believe that given than that the speakers are a few thousand a pop we're talking in the $50k range here.
Don't forget to figure in the cost for the two extra cybernetic arms you're gonna need. And the year's supply of amphetamines to make you fast enough to actually make use of your (then) four arms.

Also, I would want a top of the line speaker system for home use, something that would rival a club . I don't know enough about speakers yet, but this is something I'm actively looking into for future investment, and will honestly probably be my next investment.

My dream set up is one that allows me to spin timecode, AND sync to ableton live for sampling/looping/using VSTs & beat sync'd fx.

I've had a little success using the midi out from my DDM4K - but it drifts A LOT, and is only suitable for quickly mixing between decks and Ableton Live.

current setup + 2 CDJ-2000s + 2 K2s

currently have:
Xone: DB4
Technics MK5 pair
X1s
Audio 8
ipad
maschine

Realistically though I would probably do away with traktor for the most part if I got CDJ-2000s. And just have a DB4 and two CDJ-2000s as my primary setup. 4 CDJ-2000s and a DB4 is really my dream setup though. Not that I would need all 4 CDJ-2000s, it would just be cool to have them. I would give record box a try and if I did use DVS as long as Traktor doesn't certify the DB4 or offer advanced HID I would consider Serato with an SL4 and 4 CDJ-2000s in advanced HID mode, that would be pretty sick unless record box improves and offers a 4 stacked waveform view like SSL.

Dream is no more a dream once you managed to get it...

Used to drool over the top of the line Pioneer gears when i started djing in the past, managed to get DJM800 though...imo it's a bit ehh in terms of overall quality, sound & built.

Now switched to the synth, production & performing side...half a year in 2011 dumping all my bonus money on a Roland Fantom G6, since it's the only model i can get at that time. but i'm aiming for at least G7 (76 keys) or G8 (piano action). it makes the synth drool worthy at least since i cannot get it.
Currently on the look for the perfect VA synth to go with my FG6, if only Virus is easily available..otherwise i'll wait for Jupiter-60 (if ever get released) or a new generation V-Synth. I believe if i can afford a G6 in the 1st place then of course i can afford another flagship synth to complement the setup!

If i ever come back to djing of course the next would be the top of the line CDJ-2000 & add another 1210mk2 (this is rare, people seldom sell TTs in my country) to my rig.

There was talks about it, but there were some issues regarding the origins of the Maven, that were presumed to "not be allowed for commercial goals" or something.

He did switch to a Korg Zero8, which he seemed to like as much as the Maven.
(He did try the UC33e, but he discarded it for being a flimsy controller.

There was. At this point, I'm sure it won't happen. The VCM-600 is as close as we're going to get. And, imho, it's really freaking good.

I just love the layout of the thing. There's not a LOT more that I'd want to do, even though the VCM actually has a few more controls

New laptop, most likely of apple make.
A&H xone 22 (getting it in a few weeks)
Maschine (waiting on delivery)
2x kontrol x1's (no idea when)
New monitor speakers (mine are ancient and starting to die)
Live speakers (for any small time gigs)

Well as far as DJing goes;
MBP 17" full spec
Xone 4D
HDJ-2000s
Technics 1210s x2
CDJ-2000s x2
And maybe through in a midifighter :P

Might end up looking something like that:

As far as studio gear goes, i don't even want to get started...
