If I wanted to buy just one dj software, whether its storm dj studios, Virtual Dj New DJ etc.... which one would be the most comprehensive and useful for my money? I own the hercules DJ Audio Console so storm costs me 99 dollars, I might get other discounts too but im not quite sure. Please help me decide guys, thanks.

yeah. this is not a hard question. i wont even repeat the answer.

in all honesty though is this an unbiased answer? I mean I know for a fact storm and vdj are completely different programs and at some point it makes sense to purchase both but I just wanted to know which to purchase first. (I should have stated my question better.)

are you interested in live mixing (dj-ing) or music remixing ?

My bias toward VDJ is really because of one simple feature that no one else has, the overlapping waveform windows. For me it makes beat matching not only easier but possible in some cases. I guess I could learn how to beatmatch the old fashioned way and then pick my DJ software bases on real features, but those overlapping wave forms are so cool.

as per the live/remix question I really am not sure yet. Im at that stage where im trying to find my "Dj" self and want to know (due to budget constratints) which program will best help me do that and have fun.

Virtual DJ is a DJ-ing software, mostly targeted towards live mixing. At home, or at clubs...
You can record those mixes, of course, but its a live mix/remix software, for pro dj-ing
Arturia Storm is more a remix app, where you add drums, add vocals, add loops etc etc. For MAKING remixes, and not for actual live dj play...
So what software is for you, depends on your "dj self" ;) you might want to find that first...
anyway, u can always download demo version of both programs, and give it a try :)

i started with software.. decided it wasn't real mixing (do'h at me) then got turntables, learned how to mix the "old fashioned way" then by chance one day i came back to the VDJ website, found they sold TCV and was sold instantly..
I only know of this and Traktor that utilises TCV's and I got to try FSTraktor today, and felt slightly dissapointed by its um.. plainess (if thats a word)
VDJ is fun, but not only talks the talk it WALKS the walk...
in all honesty, even when i thought software mixing wasn't my bag baby, i sharp found out that it was my bag baby... yeah!
