| Agripina Ezzell 08.12.2012 | It's so hard to answer questions like this if you don't give us a pricerange, but I would suggest the DN MC-3000, it's around 450$ I believe, and the building quality is the best you get for those kind of money, the only con is that you have to buy traktor pro to acces all features, you only get traktor LE/VDJ LE depending on where you live. |
| Rubye Feicht 08.12.2012 | Yes, I would agree with those above in saying that if you have the money to spend, I would go with a high level all in one, which will keep you for years as opposed to a cheap controller you will have to waste time re-selling and re-buying once you get better in a month. The DDJ-SX is quite literally everything you'll ever need, and it has a lot of re-sell value even in a year because it's new now. The MTP is years old now, not as much re-sell value should you not like it or want something better. |
| Maxie Miltz 08.12.2012 | whats youre price range? |
| Evelynn Pennycook 08.12.2012 | I'd go with the DDJ-SX or the Traktor S4 great for beginners and pros - ALL in one and includes software. All you need is a laptop and your good to go. |

| Shelly Miniel 07.12.2012 | I've just began to DJ my self, and after alot of research on dj gear, i ended up with the Reloop Mixage IE. Its a really good controller from my point of view and i've learned the basics of djing in just a couple of days. The Mixage comes with Traktor 2 LE, and it isnt really expensive. I bet it isnt the best controller but i can say that i really like it and i have no regrets that i bought it. |
| Sherrell Dargenio 07.12.2012 | IMO it depends how dedicated you believe you will be, you wanna get something that isn't overly expensive but doesn't leave you wanting for more. If you buy a cheap toy controller you're eventually going to want something better as you improve. Personally I went with the NI S4, it's fairly expensive but you really won't need more than that. 4 decks along with Traktor and all of its gadgets, you can't go wrong really. If not that, I'd say check out the mid level Numark stuff as some have already suggested. |
