Adding Effects ,Midi Controllers,Akai MPC 500 MIDI

[DGrindM.M.]

Need Help !!! Im Trying to add another element to my mixing , Something similar to Akai MPC 500 MIDI or anything that i could incorporate my DJ/Producer Pack Into. The Price for Akai is pretty high ,BUT if ANYONE knows of Something similar or hair better for DJ use Would Greatly Be Appreciated.

I Use:
2 Numark BELT DRIVE Turntables

1 Numark M3 Mixer

Along with Serato Scratch Live (SL1)

I would suggest saving your money and getting a pair of direct drive turntables.

What are you looking to do? Since you have SSL, you could just get a MIDI controller for the built-in effects and sampler.

for Serato you're better off using an akai LPD8. 8 pads and 8 knobs. It can control a majority of the functions of Serato. I dunno bout using an MPC500. But it sounds like you're a begginner and jumping to an MPC500 from your Numark DJ in a Box package is a big step.
