About the last one, I’m glad to hear that about age. I approached DJing when I was 15 years old, still with turntables back then. After that brief experience I started to learn and play drums and I played with lots of bands during 3 decades. Then I became a music producer, learning more about music in general, harmony etc. Being know now for my dance/house productions on the radio brought me back the opportunity to become a DJ and I already played on some pretty big events (on a local scale) which I wouldn’t have expected before. So it’s never too late.
Does it make sense to use streaming services like Tidal for djing? And can those who use them be considered "real DJs” or would pros argue that DJs need to own their music and use DJing software like Rekordbox or Serato?
You can but you’ll need a sub mixer to convert the RCA out to balanced connections, like XLR. A proper sound system needs proper connections. Failing that, try to purchase a better quality controller with balanced outputs.
I would go for the Hercules impulse 500 if your budget is around $500USD ...but if you want to make a bit more of an investment used DDJ'S could be the way to go. The old DDJ SX3 comes to mind for this....both have XLR and RCA I believe
If you are planning on playing in clubs you are going to use them sooner or later, but it is very close to playing on controllers (that is, not that hard).

And remember that you don’t have to become a professional Dj.
DJing should be about the art. Doesn’t have to be, but it’s hard to argue against.

Wet your whistle, review your requests, read your audience, then get-bak-at-it!
Perfect video crossfader.
This was very useful for me.
Im trying to learn to DJ, have no intention of playing in a club or making it a career, just wanted to try learn a new skill. Am i weird 😂!
No, it's a nice hobby. I just want to play for myself and houseparties. Ill be in dorms very soon so it sounds like a good skill to have

I'm a DJ that likes the 80's music a lot.
And usually that's what I use on almost all my sets.
How does that influence my career?
BTW, I'm 15
Something to add to the copyright - Twitch just launched the DJ program.
Yo! im buying the Inpulse 300 MK2, can i use this at a gig? or is it anything better in that price range

Is it necessary to learn how to use cdjs? Especially if you’re on Serato.
