Hi All,
Looking to upgrade my system. Been a while since I bought it (probably 2004) and a lot has changed since. I have 2 Denon S5000 decks and a Denon DN-X1500 mixer in an Odyssey case (w/ wheels) that I run with my MacBook Pro and u46dj external sound card. Walked into a music store recently and there are so many freaking options!
I haven't been playing for a while as I've been moving to a new state and retired from the military. New life...new equipment. I play mobile events, but I also play in clubs...I usually bring my decks when I do even though most clubs have the Pioneers setup. I play Top 40, Hip-Hop, R&B AND Latin music like Salsa, Merengue, Reggaeton, & Bachata. I'm a mixing DJ and I also DJ weddings and special events (and no, I don't 'scratch it up' at the wedding receptions lol). Given this info, can anyone recommend solid, reputable equipment to bring me up to date?
I'm not a fan of lower end equipment. I have used Denpn products for a loooong time (Denon Double Deck 2500F before the S5000 decks) but I'm not stuck on a particular brand...if it's good, it's good. That said, Denon has ALWAYS been good for me. I noticed some of the controllers have built-in sound cards and some even come w/ the software like the NS7. I'm not interested in switching software rt now, VDJ Pro is just fine for me.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
