End Of The DJ Controller Era?
New Stanton DJC.4 - Stanton's new DJC.4 is a with audio interface bundled with an enhanced 4-deck version of Virtual DJ LE. The DJC.4 allows users to scratch and mix 4 decks of audio, as well as control video. It's a good pick for those that want excellent 4 deck control in a compact, durable, well-built and easily-priced DJ controller. The Numark Mixtrack Pro is a very popular choice for being and one of the most affordable and best beginner DJ controllers available. The Numark Mixtrack Pro is a great DJ controller for beginner DJs to get their feet wet without breaking the bank. You can use it with any software — it's been optimized for Virtual DJ (included in US) and Traktor Pro (Traktor LE included in EU).

Most four-channel MIDI controllers let you access the transport controls of the two additional 'decks' via a shift function, which makes this an exercise in dexterity (and not to mention caution). Audiences still relate to the DJing with records concept much more than the sinister button pushing of controllers; mixing it up this way allows you to garner faith from the crowd, yet bedazzle them with hot cue trickery. If your DJ software includes a function that enables you to record in with a microphone and treat this sample like any other track, this paves the way for the completely Foley mix set.

Hope you are able to understand my requirement and suggest Me a good controller with all these features. Personally, I would go for the Pioneer DDJ-SB Performance DJ Controller It has all that you're after with great pro features. I'm also a beginner DJ Equipment on Finance dj, and have been doing a ton of research on what type of setup i should go with. The Pioneer DDJ-SX and SZ models have the functionality i'm looking for, but a bit expensive and not mobile. If you loved it and wanted to upgrade, later you could go for a higher Pioneer model and sell the SB.

For the best and most inexpensive beginner DJ controller, my top picks are the new Denon MC2000 and the new Pioneer DDJ-WeGO Both of these new budget DJ controllers are awesome and affordable and pack a big punch with professional quality sound, design and full-featured functionality. Let me just point out that the Denon MC2000 is built for and comes with Serato DJ Intro whereas the DDJ-WeGO has a customized version of Virtual DJ and Serato Intro. The WeGO is an inexpensive DJ controller, currently selling for less than the Denon MC2000, with Pioneer Pro quality making it a great deal and an excellent value. For Traktor Pro DJ software and for a step up in pricing, there are three solid choices.

DJ software is included with the decks, and as it is fully compatible with the iTunes library you will soon be mixing your favorite tracks in no time. The Numark Mixtrack DJ software controller plugs in to your iMac or PC via USB so there is no need for any additional drivers or power supply. You'd expect to pay a lot for a set of decks like the Numark Mixtrack DJ software controller however this is not the case and these decks are very affordable. If you practise straight mixing with four tracks on four decks you'll hone your controller skills.

So if you are buying this unit coming from CDJ's with the pressure sensitive platers it might take some getting used to. If you are in the market for a new controller I would recommend this one for sure. Hardware DJ Controllers are traditionally the next step after getting one's feet wet using a software-based DJ Controller. I'm only a hobbyist DJ and didn't really want to spend a lot of money on my first DJ Controller. Also, controllers are often platform-independent, allowing for highly customized setups.

Bome's MIDI Translator (big up DJ Fer for the recognition), and Traktor 3.4.1 works 100% solid, even had it running on an IBM Thinkpad T40 and played out recently, people thought I was on CDJ's or on vinyl, and when they see what I was doing, they were quite blown away. VirtualDJ is one of the best software for dj in the world and one of the best choice especially by younger dj , who see in this software a perfect way to express imagination and creativity. Don't get me wrong these headphones sound good, but I recommend you go with a Pioneer or Sennheiser model in this price range.

Sync Button - This makes mixing tracks very easy.. Perfect for beginners or even experienced DJs new to computer mixing. You can download the full version of this too for FREE so you have a great bit of software, making this controller a more attractive proposition. This professional controller really ticks all the boxes with it's four decks, four external source outputs and has so many features it would take all Beatpad 2 day to list.
