Did the DJ hustle a million years ago using CDJ's. Quit the hustle and want to get back in.
Looking at this controller - Pioneer DDJ-FLX6 4-Channel (https://www.guitarcenter.com/Pioneer...oaAskPEALw_wcB. I like the 4 channel option because it allows me more creativity. I still have to figure out the laptop I need to get, but it would be used exclusively for DJ-ing and nothing else. I won't need anything high end and just need a little more than the minimum requirements (unless someone thinks that's a bad idea?).
Right now I'm playing around with Virtual DJ on my computer and mouse with the 4 channel setup - https://drawpoo1970-blog.tumblr.com/...91741925376000
I read that the Pioneer DDJ-FLX6 4-Channel comes included with Serato DJ Pro.
My questions............
1 - Buy a controller from a reputable place (Guitar Center, etc), or on Facebook/Ebay or would those websites be risky?
2 - In using Serato DJ pro, will I be able to see all 4 channels at the same time?
3 - If the laptop I have doesn't have a strong soundcard, will that affect the sounds coming out of the speakers?
4 - Just in case I don't like the interface of Serato DJ pro, can I still use Virtual DJ with the DDJ-FLX6?
5 - If I can use Virtual DJ instead of Serato DJ pro when using the DDJ-FLX6, is it worth it then to buy the Pioneer DDJ-FLX6 since I won't use Serato? If it's not worth to buy, what would be a good recommendation for a 4 channel mixer to use with Virtual DJ?
6 - Perhaps this is very subjective, but what's the general recommendation, Serato or Virtual DJ (sound quality, ease of use, reliability/software crashes)?
I'm sure I'll have a bunch of follow up questions.
Thanks!
