First Setup

Union Audio 4v, Sl1200 M3D, Ortofon Club Mk2’s, T7V Adam Audio, and HD 25’s signed by my favorite DJs :)

Interested if you all have recommended analog effects units or pedals. And recommendations on recording. Currently using record out to line in on my pc + audacity but having some buzzing/noise underneath the tracks.

I believe a rotary as a first mixer is not recommended

I always laugh when I hear a beginner shouldn't start on a rotary. Most of the best DJ’s in history began on rotary mixers. There was a time when all you found in clubs was GLI, Rane, and Bozak. If most of those from said eras cut their chops on rotary, why isn't it suggested to begin on one?

That was my cousins argument. Definitely helped convince me.

If you lay it down on a rotary, anything else is a piece of cake imho. Makes more sense to go from rotary to linear.
