THANKS! =)Do I Need More Than Just this TURNTABLE Package / What are some good Vinyl Albums to scratch with?
You'll need some speakers, an amp and a lead to connect that to your mixer. If you have a hi - fi with an auxiliary input (two small jack inputs, one white, one red) at the back, that will probably do to get you started, but you will want to upgrade your sound system at some point.





You would only use a laptop in conjunction with turntables if you are using Serato to play MP3's through time-coded vinyl. That's a whole different game altogether, but one you might look into in the future. Serato costs about 拢300 - 400, but you can use your free (or very cheap) MP3's to DJ with it. Vinyl records are at least 拢5 each, and you'll be buying new ones all the time.





DJ Rectangle and many others make some great records for scratching with called 'battle weapons'. Essentially, rather than whole tracks, they're more like collections of individual sounds, noises and loops. They're a great place to start to learn how to scratch. Eventually you'll be able to work out what sounds from individual tunes sound good too. It does take a lot of practise to get good at scratching.





Have fun.
