Help me upgrade my gear! PLEASE HELP !
Help me upgrade my gear! PLEASE HELP ! Posted on: 15.02.2013 by Mari Gordish I currently have a Numark Mixdeck, I know, not the best. I am 15 years old so I am not too serious but I've grown a lot. I live in SF and I just got a gig at the DNA Lounge to open up for Kid Ink. Basically, I NEED an upgrade soon.I have picked out some options : DDJ SX Numark NS7 MK2 (August 2013) v7s and a mixer? See, I like the DDJ SX because its 4 channel, has a great price and the 16 performance pads. Also it uses the new Serato DJ. I also like the NS7 MK2 because it is the same as the DDJSX but it has the MOTORIZED PLATTERS. Which I absolutely love. But it releases in August and that is a really long wait on 5 months almost. Also, I thought maybe some v7s with a mixer because of the motorized platters? I am not that experienced with hooking up two players to a mixer and using it with my computer because I usually use an all-in-one set up. Also I thought maybe a DDJSX with two v7s (Eventually) if that is possible. Please help me. Im confused and annoyed. PS. I NEED the motorized platters in my set up. I love scratching and mixing with them. Even some Denon DNS-3000 are okay but you must watch my age and that I don't have too much money ~$1100. Please help me though! Anyone who doesnt want to read everything : I need a set up with : - Motorized Platters - 4 channels - Uses Serato DJ or Itch - Fairly low price (~$1100) - Prefer performance pads | |

| Augustine Mitzen 24.02.2013 | i believe what he was getting at was that you don't have to lug your controller around seeing as they have a mixer, CDJs and TTs, but you can just bring your laptop (and soundcard i guess) and use the stuff they have to control your software via Timecodes or do you absolutely need to use the controller? |

| Piedad Apelian 15.02.2013 | the mkII is a large piece of kit to lug around, then you'll need a flight case to hold it etc etc... i just googled that place, they should have a mixer available and everything you need on hand, would just need like timecode CDs or Vinyl since you scratch and you lappy +stuff quick question tho, correct me if im wrong but doesn't san fran have a pretty strict curfew? and its illegal to be a minor in a bar after like 10pm out here in Dallas, and Im pretty sure san fran has the same city ordinance that no club in their right mind would break for a booking.... make sure that place knows your age, because thats one hell of a fine which would buy you an entire rig + a benzo if you got the heat for being in there |
| Maude Milesky 15.02.2013 | Yup. its only one with motorized platters and performance pads. |
| Deangelo Boender 15.02.2013 | Sounds like you need to go all out, NS7 MkII all the way man... |
