a new mixer won't fix a broken dj.

what exactly is wrong with your current mixer?

Firstly it retails for under 200 bucks, so im tipn its fairly shit.
And im not even a dj, let alone a broken 1. Maybe a shit one ??
Just want some info thats all.... I hear pioneer are ok?? and numark??
Is a bpm counter could 2 learn with?

How many records do you have? Read further into what macc4 is saying.

I good dj will be able to use any equipment.

You dont need a new mixer if it isnt broken, and $500 on vinyl would be well worth it.

best advice you'll get is keep the one you have until you know why you need a new one

at the moment you just 'think' you need a new one, when in reality its not going to make one iota of difference...

use the money on vinyl......you'll thank yourself for it in the long run

Buy more vinyl mate, honestly how long can you play 30 records for?

Music selection is much more important than what mixer you have.

$500 will get you another 30 records, doubling your music collection.

Sorry all could see this going on for a while!!!!!!


To answer the question

Numark DXM09 Mixer at store DJ for $449.

Stay away from Behringer, you will be tempted by the price but dissapointed in the long run. Bit like a 2 cent hooker!!!!!

If you must get a mixer, which I don't agree with either, don't get Numark, Behringer, Stanton, etc.

Look second hand, you could get an awesome mixer for $500 second hand.

But buy records!

Are you still tripping on Acid? Or are you having relapses ;)
