DJing general discussion. What kinda hardware/software, where to get music, lighting etc.

Currently playing with a Pioneer DDJ-SR and Launchpad S.

DJ more as a hobby than a job. Been playing house parties and such around campus but looking into doing some small club gigs and such.

Anyone else enjoy some mixing?

I mix at parties and stuff. I use 2 M-audio x-session pros, kinda funky setup but I like it. Completely midi so I can map it how I like it.

What kind of stuff do you mix? I dabble mostly in deep house and trap. MK, Mark Knight, JM, Dusky all the good stuff

I mix pretty much everything. Have to mix shitty pop and EDM at most college parties. When i'm mixing for myself or friends i enjoy messing with some Funk and Electro house.

Also what software do you use for you set-up?

Ya Serato is good because its free but you have to purchase a software interrogated device to even have it even compatible with Serato. Traktor is also really good too.

I too use Serato and you can map pretty much anything into it or get a external Serato box if really needed.
