Just wondering on what recommended gear i need to be a trance dj (like the best tables,mixers,etc)

wazzup · 10-20-2001, 01:11 AM

Let me know what you find out, i want to turn my basement into a fat party room, lights, music, multimedia etc...

There are many types of tables out there. Some good some Bad.Dont waste your time with anything but the best. There are 2 leading companys right now, Technics, and Vestax. Both make GREAT tables. For a mixer I would most def go with Vestax. They make some of the tightest mixers ever.
.
If I were you I would check out some websites like,

vestax
, and
technics

Good luck

Pioneer are also starting to turn out some nice solid mixing desks. For turntables I'd go with Technics 1210's (if you can afford them) because they're reliable and the industry standard. Make sure you get good headphones that can handle loud bass/kick drums without distorting. What style trance are you planning to spin?

The Stoned Philosopher · 10-21-2001, 05:41 AM

goa and progressive, might do some ambient as well

Woohoo! The world needs more goa djs

Been spinning goa/psytrance for about 6 months now, let me know if you need any help with anything.

Good luck with it and don't forget us when you're famous

Coming out with the DJ-M,Pioneer has been working on there mixers. The effects rack built in is cool, but all faders,and knobs do break easy, and are extremely hard to change. Go with any Vestax. Knobs, and faders are built well, and for those mishaps they interchange with 2 screws, and a plug.

I've been Djing for about 6 or 7 years now, and in my setup I have two Vestax PDX A1S's , and a Vestax PMC-27MK2 mixer. I use to be a die hard Technics fan, and once I got ahold a vestax I've never gone back. Technics are the "industry standard", but their design hasn't changed in the last 20 years. Vestax are just as reliable, and innovating every day for the "DJ".
