Well.. if you want to mix with software, first of all you need VirtualDj ;)
Next if you would like to be like Tiesto you will need TimeCoded Vinyls and something like Maya44 USB and 2 turntables and mixer. And that's it!

What turn tables would you recommend, and what about a sampler?

Turntables? It doesn't really matter which ones. But they have to have direct drive motor. It's better ;)
If you want the best, go to Technics of course :) Otherwise look for Numark, which has great turntables too.
Sampler you have already built in VirtualDJ, you can use midi controllers to control them.
Did you even try VirtualDJ?? -> http://www.virtualdj.com/download.html
