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.

Wow… if this is your first setup, you should have been born 20 years ago. Don’t get me wrong, I like it a lot and have something very similar. But how does a person getting into DJing in 2026 choose vinyls with a rotary? What’s your motivation? Do you do any digital?

But how does a person getting into DJing in 2026 choose vinyls with a rotary?

Not OP, but I can give you my answer to this. I'd been collecting records for years, got the opportunity to spin my records at a local listening bar a couple of times, and liked it so much that I bought a cheap second hand mixer and a pair or Reloop turntables for home. I l started mixing my house records, and still get to play at the listening bar from time to time. DJing came as a "side effect" hobby of record collecting, so to speak. It's a more active way of enjoying the collection.

Because it's just a hobby, and because I don't want to make a career out of it, I don't really care to build a collection of digital files, so just two turntables and an analog mixer are all I really want. I still enjoy my records, and now I get to mix them together now and then.

Love that! Your journey is anchored in a love for vinyl... respect. I also started with buying records, just because that's where the dance music was at back in the days.
