    So im ready to become an official dj. I can work VirtualDj from my desktop with my mouse, but saw this video and got motivated. I like the price, but is there anything else on the market for beginners that has better specs, but within this price range?

    Other controllers that will fit in a laptop bag are Pioneer DDJ Wego, Mixvibes U-Mix Control Pro 2, and JB Systems DJ Kontrol 1 and 2, as well as a kit of Traktor Kontrol X1+Z1. Currently chosing between them lot, it's difficult >.> Any opinions or input will be appreciated!

    I don't get the people ridiculing this totally as a 'toy'. There is a new version of this for around £100 now with a built-on sound-card. But granted, I don't know how to dj and beat-match at all. If I reverted back to the old turntable routine, it's going to cost me 2 decks, a mixer, speakers and plus, heaps of records - we're talking a grand which I don't have!! I prefer something like this for my past-time and pleasure!

    I think you should be able to get a DJ adapter for 10$ (available from brands Traktor, Mixvibes, Urbanears) which splits stereo signal into two mono signals, one goes to your headphone, other goes to the speakers. You would need specifically a DJ splitter and not a normal headphone splitter. You don't really need stereo signal when DJing - you won't be listening with both ears all the time and the club PAs are usually mono anyway. Of course it's not a pro solution, the laptop soundcards simply don't give a decent power level, but then again this controller is a toy, so it's a solution which fits. The only question is, whether the bundled version of Mixvibes software allows this setup, where cue goes completely to one channel and mix to the other on one stereo output? This also makes it obvious what they could have done better, namely they could have bundled such a cable and preset the software to run this way. Though of course most tower computers have 3 stereo outputs as opposed to one on most laptops, so you can use it on those out of the box.

    @Wil8789 You gotta find some Technics for that or the V7s which both run you about $500 a piece. I hear theres a Numark turntables that are pretty cheap but are still decent, but ive never tried them so im not sure how well they work. Sadly, Pro DJ gear will drain your bank account. But if it didnt, then everybody would be a DJ.
