Want to buy a lap top to DJ with, how do i split the channels so i can cue one deck with out playing tocrowd?

?


ok i currently dj with 2 cd players through a mixer, its easy i have a 4 channel mixer and 2 cd players, the head phone jack monitors any 1 of the 4 channels and the volume on the mixer allows you to play a cd to the crowd and another cd for me to listen through the head phones, very standard, we run a teenage night club, i dont dj but the guy who does just plugs into my system so his out put from his mixer goes into my mixers channel 3 then to the amps and so on, into his mixer he runs a device called scratch live with 2 turn tables for scratching and his lap top where he runs virtual dj also runs into the scratch live, he has vinyl on the turntables but dont play them when he scratches it just some how comes through the output, anyhow what i wanna do is get a laptop for my shows, i dont want to scratch or use vinyl i just want to be able to provide a quality sound and be able to listen to one channel while the other plays what do i need to do so, where do i start i have an external harddrive with alot of music what type of computer (laptop) would you recommend what soft ware hard ware etcWant to buy a lap top to DJ with, how do i split the channels so i can cue one deck with out playing tocrowd?
I think the strange-triangle stuff is simply spam.


You can get DJ software that cuts one songs as it starts the next, or fades in out etc. Or you need a laptop with an additional card that gives you an extra video card for that extra channel.Want to buy a lap top to DJ with, how do i split the channels so i can cue one deck with out playing tocrowd?
ok biggest thing is





if your in Australia and want to Dj (to make money)


then you better have the money to buy the Copyright licences


or if you get caught then do not say you wasnt told





you need two sets of licences





1 from www.ppca.com.au (dj licence to play @ $200 a year)


1 from www.aria.com.au (format shift Dj licence $800 a year)





if you get caught and do NOT have these licences then they can take all your gear and even jail you





to know about copyright go to www.mipi.com.au





have a nice day
