Item-Nr.: DJE0008685-000
Compact 2-channel controller with integrated audio interface and the full version of Traktor Pro 4
A DJ controller with a built-in sound card processes audio signals internally and allows headphone cueing, direct connection of speakers, as well as microphones or additional DJ equipment. For beginners, this means fewer extra devices, a simpler setup, and immediate readiness for use.
A DJ controller without a built-in sound card only sends control data (MIDI/HID) to the computer; audio output is handled by the laptop’s sound card or an external audio interface. This option is more affordable and makes sense if an audio interface is already available or if the setup needs to remain highly portable.
Without a sound card, headphone cueing is often limited or not possible at all, which makes precise mixing more difficult. For this reason, beginners are generally advised to choose a controller with a built-in sound card, as it significantly simplifies getting started and requires fewer technical prerequisites.

To get started as a DJ, you first need the music you want to play, a DJ controller, and software. The software is used to analyze tracks (BPM, key), prepare your music, and create playlists.
Typical DJ setups are:
Most DJ programs are available for free, often with optional paid upgrades. These offer advanced features, but for beginners they are usually not essential.
Before you buy, consider how you want to DJ, whether you want to integrate additional gear, and how many tracks you want to play at the same time. Some controllers also allow you to trigger samples live.
If you want to DJ long-term or professionally, it’s worth getting familiar with club standards early on to avoid switching later.
Over the years, certain devices and systems have become established as club standards:
Key criteria for DJ headphones are volume, comfort, weight, and isolation. Popular models include:
For a successful start in DJing, it helps to know a few basics:
For commercial use, the appropriate usage rights must be in place. You can obtain them, for example, by purchasing music on platforms like Beatport, Traxsource, or DJcity.
Using YouTube, Spotify, or SoundCloud converters is illegal for commercial use and not recommended. Sharing downloaded music is also prohibited.
In most cases, it’s not DJs but event organizers who pay GEMA fees for public events. DJs usually do not have to submit GEMA track lists.
Exceptions may apply for live or artist DJ sets with your own edits or remixes. Private parties are not subject to GEMA, public events generally are.
