I am new to odjt and to djing so i need some help.

I am mau from cali i love music and i decided that i want to make my own. I want to be able to scratch and mix and then know that i produced that. I dont care if people like it or not, if i like it im happy with it.

I have some gemini xl200 and a gemini pmx-250 mixer. I want to use my laptop, but i want to be able to use the mixer and the turntables. What i mean is that i just want the laptop so i can use a software to be able to mix and scratch the music i have. Which brings me to my first question. What software can i use? Where can i buy some blank vinyls that allow the software to play your music from your laptop?

I know that my mixer is not great, so that brings me to another question. What brand of dj controller can i use as a mixer? Also if i use the dj controller as a mixer do i need a sound card.

If you guys can help me ill appreciate it. A lot!!!
Thanks odjt
 
Welcome. Many controllers have sound cards built in. Some don't. Check the specs on the ones you like and it should tell you. I have the Hercules RMX and it does have a built in card. You just need to hook up some speakers or at least headphones to hear it.
 
Hercules RMX is a great controller and we have a member here "Steve Sharpe" who does their demos and is a product rep for them....

I don't know much about making your own music, but it sounds like you need something like Serato Scratch to do what you want to do....
