If you live in a small rural area with more basic music & styles, you may be ok. If its a large metropolitan area where its common, you may have problems getting gigs if you don't know the music or style (which I don't). While most people here will tell you that you must have the more modern equipment & play the music by "beat matching" & "mixing", it depends on what you plan on doing & more so, how much business your willing to say no to & a lot of it depends on the area you live in.
While they may not approve or understand my setup but they respect the fact that it works for me & what I do. Most people have already given me their heat & now that they know me, know I am not just a fly by night guy here & know, that I know what I am doing. I don't need the more modern equipment etc because I don't do that stuff that requires it. I will probably take a lot of heat for this post but most people here know I use a basic setup & for what I do. You can get it online for $15 I think & comes with support & lifetime updates.

I use a cheap, simple software that works well for me, is dependable & has not given me any problems or crashed.
If your playing the sets like I am, the answer is no, you don't need all the fancy equipment. As one song is ending, I start the other. I play songs all the way thru & then start the next song. I play my sets just as you hear them on the radio. As well, I don't "mix" as most DJ's do today. I don't play Rap, "gangsta" music which requires you to "scratch" etc. I play mostly Country, Pop, Hip Hop, Classic Rock etc. However, again, it depends on what crowds your going to play to & the choice of music you play for them. In short, depending on what music you play, & I would think that since your not using fancy equipment now, your probably not going to need it in the future. For what I'm doing, do I really need the fancier mixers and such? Mainstream top 40 stuff for the most part.
I'm looking to get into dj-ing weddings and dances and other events.your standard mobile DJing I would think. I asked him why I had to do that and he didn't know. It just seemed like another thing to do for no reason. This was like 4 years ago so I can't remember any details. It seemed really strange because it didn't seem to help anything. He gave me quick crash course and said that after I selected a song and loaded it into one of the players on the screen, I had to do something with the turntable devices before hitting play on the computer.

Full dancefloor and beat matching more obscure mixes didn't seem to be what was on the menu. Keep in mind, this was another top 40 dance situation.mix of gay and straight listening to a lot of 80's and other party songs. It looked similar to some of the setups I've seen on here. I guest djed one time with someone who had a laptop running a program and then also had two external turntable type devices that were somehow hooked up to the laptop but records weren't being played on them. When needed, I can synch (I know.dirty word!) and it gets the job done. I don't specialize in a lot of beat 's never really been needed with what I've been involved with. For awhile (like many on here I'm sure), I used cds and then transitioned out of that into using a laptop. I've DJed for 12 untry bars.gay top 40 dance bars.strip bars. How much of that is needed for party style dj-ing? Turntables and things that look like they simulate turntables.etc etc. I'm looking at everyone's setups and almost all of them have a lot of advanced looking equipment.
