im currently playing guitar and i've been playing it for about 4 years(feel bored cz im nt a good player).
im thinkin of trying diz dj-ing stuff cz im quite attracted 2 it..
so guys...how much i need 2 spend?im jz lookin 4 beginners stuff....
n plus,wut shud i have 2 start turntabling?
first of all , playing guitar and changing to turntablism is totally two different thing
in turntablism , there is no Chords or anything to follow ...you just need to "feel" around ..and get the right feel
do u know what's involved in turntablism? mixing DJ in clubs and turntablism is quite a different thing
DJ-ing in club = spinning and mixing musics
Turntablism = alot to do with spinning mixing , and technical skills for PRESENTATION ..or should i say .. to "show off" your skills
turntablism means u need turntables
u can't just use turntables to make your music ,but u will a mixer with that..
a turntable only can produce musics, beats using traditional record make out of vinyl .. which we call Vinyl Records.
summary = turntables + mixer + vinyl records
turntables = usually technics .. cost about RM1500-300 each
mixer = ranging from 1.5K to 5K depending on the functionality u need
vinyl records = RM60 to RM150 per record and it's hard to find in malaysia
DVS = Digital Vinyl System = about RM2.5K to 3K ... one off price .. after that u just need a laptop and alot of mp3 download ..

would just like to ask..
kaosspad 3..anyone know how much would it come up to?
would anyone consider it to be an essential item to ones set up?
depending on what you want to do in your setup
if your kind of style / music require the kaoss pad , then it's essential only to you
what you need does not reflect what every1 else need ... and vice versa
