Shonda Soulier 13.06.2012 | I'm really intrigued by a setup with 2 CDJs and an S4 running TSP in a 4 deck setup switching back and forth between 2 full decks and 2 remix decks. So I guess I'd go with: 2 Pioneer CDJ-2000s S4 with innofader 2 Kontrol F1s Pioneer HDJ-2000s Yeah, not mind-blowing but it would be plenty for me... |
Dorie Scelzo 13.06.2012 | I doubt that highly. |

It's just less fun to constantly dick around with a mouse than it would be with real knobs. And compared to what half-decent mixers cost…a single Artist Mix really isn't that bad. |
Denyse Waterland 12.06.2012 | 2cdj 2000, 2 1200's and a db4 in an ideal world where vinyl is as cheap as mp3s |
Freida Leash 12.06.2012 | My desire is changing too much to spend money. I believe right now I want to DJ: S4 2x F1 later I would like to add DVS so used Technics (I miss them) already have a midifighter Production: Ableton APC 40 Akai 64 key with some bells and whistles Maschine I flip flop frequently on dj gear, so am sticking to my current rig, until I'm ready to commit to remix decks I'm staying at traktor pro 1.x, the sample decks didn't look appealing enough, the remix decks do, but I never early adopt unless forced too. If I got the desire to play out, I would probably move to a CDJ mixer set up to make it easier to practice at home on similar set up to the club, dragging extra junk around is really not appealing. Production I'm saving towards that kit now, I believe it will be just enough that by the time I want something else, I will be working around the gear to do what new kit would. |
Dione Haimes 12.06.2012 | 3 X CDJ 900's into a DB4, My two 1210 mk2's into a rane 62 w/ my soon to be custom dicers an SL3 for playing out. 8gb i7 Mac Pro w/ twin 27" displays Komplete, Korg reto synth series (cant remember name) w/ ms-20 controller akai mpk49 Piano Lessons. |
Matt Kane 12.06.2012 | i |
Nedra Fresneda 12.06.2012 | Maschine with a pair of Xone K2. |
Darren Teboe 12.06.2012 | • 3 CDJ 2000's • 3 Technics SL-1200GLD • 1 DJM 900 • 1 Urei 1620 (fully restored) • 8 QSC KLA 181's and 8 KLA12's • 1 Sound tech to help me find the best DSP money can buy. |
Natalia Bucko 11.06.2012 | Fucking this: setup.jpg And the laptop is.... suspended from the ceiling... or something... idfk. |
Rosenda Gossage 11.06.2012 | I wish I'd bought the 92R I had my eye on to replace my 62. I'd maybe like to change the 1000 Mk3's to 2000's. Other than that, I'm more than happy with mine. /me reminds himself to buy a new stylus, because one is bent. |
Cristian Carmona 11.06.2012 | dont get me wrong, i buy vinyl & serato timecodes like a mad man |
Lina Rawie 11.06.2012 | 2 x STR8-150s (which I have already) Shure M44-7s (which I have) A nice high end scratch mixer, maybe a Rane or a Rodec (currently have a beaten up old Hak 310) Some decent headphones Records (which I have, but not enough of them!) And if a DVS existed that was absolutely rock solid, had the features I want, and performed exactly like vinyl, I'd add that and a small controller (for cue points, loops etc.) to the list too, along with an Ultrabook. |
Yukiko Beauvil 11.06.2012 | DJ setup would be, either 2 cdj2000's and a nice mixer playing with usb. Production setup would be: high end windows desktop with 2 widescreens operating FL studio, and nice 61 keys keyboard and good pair of monitors, I am set. |

Gear is awesome, my wallet is jealous of people satisfied with the bare essentials. |

Doesn't take much to make me happy ans still be able to perform the way I'd want to be able to. Dream Studio set up, New Mac Pro Ableton Maschine Arturia V Collection Akai MPK88 Duet 2 Soundcard Focal Twin6 monitos plus CMS Sub Waves Complete X (whatever the latest version is) And done. This is just for producing. Again, simple, efficient but high quality. |
Cristian Carmona 11.06.2012 | my current setup 2x 1200's, Rane 57, dicers & 13" mbp. would love to upgrade to a Rane 62, but have no need ATM. studio: 23" cinema display, macmini + mbp 13", amxion 25, maschine + komplete + live, m-audio monitors. its not about how much gear you have, its how well you use what you have. |
Reda Holdsworth 11.06.2012 | I'm really happy with my setup right now. (See signature) Guess I'd take a nicer mixer & be totally satisfied. |
