Hello y'all! So as the title says I am planning on purchasing my first DJ set up in the next couple weeks and I have some questions. I am planning on starting out small, a couple speakers (still on the fence about active vs. passive), a mixer, a couple mics, and a laptop.
So my first question has already presented itself. Active vs. Passive. I like the simplicity of powered speakers but at the same time I worry about having to run extra power cords. Would I better off with a set of passive speakers and an amplifier? I know that is kinda like asking "what shade of blue is the sky" so I'm not looking for a definitive answer. Just some opinions, pros, cons, that sorta thing.
Next question. Should I invest in a full on DJ controller or will a basic 4 channel mixer suffice? I am definitely not looking to do a bunch of scratching and all that fanciness. I'm just looking for an efficient way to control my sound.
Thanks in advance for your help/advice and I apologize if I am rehashing old news. I tried the search function prior to posting and couldn't find much.
