Currently I'm looking for a DJ controller to mix some music.
I do beats in my spare time and I just want to start with something else.
I did some research on the internet and found the Numark MixTrack Platinum Controller on Amazon. In addition, I find it visually good. The reviews were also very positive.
Unfortunately, I do not have a laptop, but only a tower PC, so I decided to buy a controller that has integrated software with a display or one that you can connect to your smartphone.
Unfortunately, such 200 euro-400 euro are more expensive.
Can someone recommend DJ controllers that can do without a laptop / PC?
Thomann is the cheapest 900 euro. I do not think you want that. There you will have to think of something else. For example, Drag the tower around. Alright… Well, how often do you make music out of the house?
Since you probably only want to use the hobby I would come up with not so professional demands of the Numark iDJ2. The has a screen in the middle and can play songs from hard disk or USB sticks without further devices.
I've been working with the similar principle in Numark D2 Director for years and I do not want to do more with anything else. The way of working the upcoming songs in the Crate (quasi idea box / playlist) to get is just awesome and very relaxing. I have 3 boxes with the D2 and a Denon mixer - but also an iDJ2 that you can take for private little things.
Is it only needed - are usually without box for 50-80 euro to have - here is one with the original Numark box (the only had NP 179 euro) - there's also an excerpt with a matching keyboard to search. Top bargain if the fully OK!
