br br 7. Should I focus my money on buying light or soundspeaker equipment? Or should I have a good balance of light and sound? br br There are some really neat lasers and lights out there these days. But as a DJ, your focus should be on the music and sound. Once you have that down you can purchase lights for cheap. Just remember that lights are a luxury to have but not required. br br Once you start making money, then you can throw a couple hundred dollars on a set of par 38 lights with a stand and colored lenses. br br You can also get a 4-head tracker light effect system. This has a control box that does all the work for you. It can follow the music or alternate the lights. br br Lights aren’t necessary to have in the beginning. But it can add to the look of your level of professionalism. Just make sure you know how to really work the lighting equipment once you purchase it.
