I found Virtual dj to be very easy when I first started out it's user friendly as well. The cool thing about vdj is it shows you a visual of the songs you are playing making it a little easier to beatmatch. Once I mastered that I moved onto Traktor. So if your asking me I would recommend vdj to start off then eventually you can move on to something different.

I agree 100%! Sounds like you were telling my story lol

For the longest while i tried to map my Traktor S4 to Virtual Dj but no luck yet. It will be awesome once i get it running tho.

Nice! You have ans S4? That's cool. I really want one but I don't need it. I've been rocking a Hercules RMX. From what I remember it was fairly easy to reprogram stuff through VDJ. You just have to know the codes. It tells you somewhere.
